## ANSWER

## MINISTER OF STATE IN THE MINISTRY OF SHIPPING (SHRI PON. RADHAKRISHNAN)

(a) to (e) To create a country wide waterway  network so as to optimize  the full potential of this mode of transport,  111 inland  waterways  (including  the existing 5 national waterways) have been declared as National Waterways  (NWs) under the 'National Wateruays Act, 2016' which has been enforced w.e.l. 12.04.2016.  The list of these NWs is at Annex-|. Subsequent to the declaration  of a National Wateruray,  feasibility  study which inter-alia covers  the potential  of navigability,  cargo availability, cost of development  etc. on the NW is undertaken  by the lnland WateMays Authority of lndia (lWAl).

The details of NWs which are operational/ navigable and being used for transportation at present in the country are at Annex-ll.

As per the feasibility reports  completed  so far, 36 NWs have been found to be technically  viable. Out of these 36 NWs, developmental  activities have been initiated  on 8 NWs in 2017-18. A list of these 8 NWs is enclosed  as Annex-lll. Status of DPRs for the remaining  28 NWs is at Annex-lV.

lWAl has set up a mechanism to monitor the wateruay through regular Thalweg surveys  and channel inspection.  Regular fortnightly  hydrographic  surveys  are conducted  to determine the available depth and possible shoal formations  in the channel and to notify the obstructions,  clearances available  at cross structures. A constant  vigil is kept on the river behavior and plans accordingly  to ensure  fainvay  for safe movement  of vessels. Based on the observation during channel inspection, River Notices are being issued and placed on the lWAl website  with details on Least Available Depth  (LAD), clearances at bridge structures etc. along with any specific information to be conveyed to shippers.
