 Atlantic Intercoastal Waterway Association
The Atlantic Intracoastal Waterway (AIWW) was authorized by the Rivers and Harbors act of 1938.
That legislation declared that a 12-foot channel depth was necessary to, "...allow the use of larger vessels by common, contract, and private carriers." Also, for recreational and pleasure craft operators, a deeper channel would result in, "...a reduction of hazard to life and vessels" meaning that larger crafts could travel safer inshore than offshore.
In July 1999 the AIWA was formed to ensure that the long neglected waterway would receive the attention it was promised in 1938.
