The TRA has issued the "Radio Site Installation and Modification Guidelines" for public consultation defining the guidelines to be adopted by the Service Providers in installing and modifying their radio sites used for the provision of private and public telecommunications services as well as earth television and radio broadcast services relying on radio frequencies. These guidelines also include the tagging procedures of the telecommunications equipments installed or to be installed in radio sites over the Lebanese territory. They are meant to prevent the installation of unlicensed radio sites that are harmful to the telecommunications sector as well as the public health and national security. These guidelines will assist TRA experts in determining the owners and usage of the radio sites, identifying and detecting any illegal use.

The "Radio Site Installation and Modification Guidelines" and "Radio Site Installation and Modification Application Form" are being currently launched for public consultation. Consultation feedback is due by May 31st, 2011.
