3 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 of Central 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 3

4 IWT Sub optimal utilization of IWT is a great economic opportunity loss to the country Rlys had 88% share in 1951; now only 36% Roads share went up from 11% in 1951 to 50 % Source: Total Transport System Study by RITES 4

13 13 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, a difficult task Hence dredging & bandalling is done annually NW-3 is a tidal waterway Once depth is developed with capital dredging, it can be maintained for a number of years NW-4 & 5 are combination of rivers, canals and tidal sections

14 Cargo Movement on NW-1, 2, 3, Goa & Mumbai Waterways (in million tonnes) STRETCH NW NW NW Sub total NWs GOA MUMBAI Grand Total

15 Cargo potential Potential for cargo movement in NWs: 15 Coal, Food grains, Fertilizers, Cement, Bitumen, Fly ash, Project cargo, Hazardous goods Yet remains untapped Long term cargo commitment required to attract private investment in vessels Commitment by NTPC has drawn investment of Rs 650 crore by private sector Commitment by ONGC made it possible to move more than 90 consignments for Palatana power plant in Tripura

17 What has been done by IWAI 17

18 IWT infrastructure requirements 1. Fairway: Navigation Channel with targeted least available depth (LAD) for round the year operation 2. Navigation aids: Aids for safe and efficient day and night navigation 3. Terminals/ river ports: For berthing, loading/ unloading of vessels, cargo handling equipment and connectivity with rail and rail 18

35 Issues Validity of Protocol for short periods Insufficient navigable depth in Protocol routes Development of Ashuganj as Transhipment terminal Development of infrastructure at LCS Agartala and strengthening of roads Inclusion of Surma river between Ashuganj and Chhatak/Sylhet in Protocol route 35

36 National Waterway Grid Study The idea of National Waterways Transport Connectivity Grid had emanated from the 2013 Budget speech of the Finance Minister IWAI has entrusted with this task and the study was awarded to M/s RITES in two phases It envisages creation of connectivity for the 5 National Waterways (NW) and the proposed 6th NW with road and rail connectivity to IWT locations. Also envisages port- NW connectivity, wherever possible 36

37 National Waterway Grid Study 31 potential terminal locations have been identified in 6 NWs 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.
