Institutional set up for IWT

Govt. of Indian set up in October 1986 for development and regulation of Inland Waterways

Only National Waterways (NW) under the purview ofCentral Govt. / IWAI

Other waterways under the respective State Govts IWAI mandated,interalia, to take up

Infrastructure development & regulation on NWs

Techno- economic feasibility studies

Proposals for declaration of NWs

Advise the Central Govt on IWT matters

Assistance to States in IWT development

Complexities of Indian waterways

NW-1 (Ganga) and NW-2 (Brahmaputra); typical

alluvial rivers

large water level fluctuation

huge sediment load, multiple channels

maintaining a navigable channel with 2 m depth, adifficult task

Hence dredging & bandalling is done annually

NW-3 is a tidal waterway

Once depth is developed with capital dredging, itcan be maintained for a number of years

NW-4 & 5 are combination of rivers, canals and tidalsections

Cargo potential

Potential for cargo movement in NWs:

Coal, Food grains, Fertilizers, Cement, Bitumen, Flyash, Project cargo, Hazardous goods

Yet remains untapped

Long term cargo commitment required to attractprivate investment in vessels

Commitment by NTPC has drawn investment of Rs 650

crore by private sector Commitment by ONGC made it possible to move morethan 90 consignments for Palatana power plant inTripura

An Overview

Piloted and funded by Ministry of External Affairs (MEA)

Project is based on DPR prepared by RITES in 2003.

Framework Agreement and two Protocols (Protocol onTransit Transport and Protocol on Maintenance) signed on

2ndApril 2008 between Governments of India & Myanmar.

MEA is the nodal agency on Indian side; and Ministry of Foreign Affairs of Myanmar on the other side

Article-4 of the Framework Agreement provides for

appointment of a Project Development Consultant (PDC)

Inland Waterways Authority of India (IWAI) appointed asPDC by the MEA in March 2009.

National Waterway Grid Study

The idea of National Waterways Transport Connectivity Gridhad emanated from the 2013 Budget speech of the FinanceMinister

IWAI has entrusted with this task and the study wasawarded to M/s RITES in two phases

It envisages creation of connectivity for the 5 NationalWaterways (NW) and the proposed 6th NW with road and

rail connectivity to IWT locations. Also envisages port- NWconnectivity, wherever possible


37/39

37

National Waterway Grid Study

31 potential terminal locations have been identified in 6NWs based on 80% O-D traffic in the primary corridor (approx 50 km on both sides of NW).

Port- NW connectivity at 7 ports ( Kolkata, Haldia, Dhamra,

Paradip, Kakinada, Krishnapatnam & Kochi)

Consultation with stakeholders viz State Govts, Ports,

NHAI, Ministry of Railways has already done.

Ph-1- 14 terminals during 2014-17 Ph-2- 17 terminals during 2017-22
