# Commission Implementing Regulation (EU) 2018/1973 of 7 December 2018 amending Implementing Regulation (EU) No 909/2013 on the technical specifications for the electronic chart display and information system for inland navigation (Inland ECDIS) referred to in Directive 2005/44/EC of the European Parliament and of the Council, Division SECTION 2A: CODES FOR PRODUCERS AND WATERWAYS (IN ADDITION TO IHO–S-62 ENC PRODUCER CODES

Extent: E+W+S+N.I.

Codes for producers of Inland ENCs as well as the registration procedure are those mentioned in the document referred to in point 2(b) of Section 1 of this Annex (‘IHO S-62’).
Administrations or private companies which produce Inland ENCs and which are not mentioned in IHO-S-62 and administrations or private companies which decide to produce Inland ENCs shall register a producer code at the S-100 registry of IHO at http://registry.iho.int
Since a producer code alone is not sufficient to establish whether an Inland ENC is appropriate to be used in navigation mode, the competent authorities referred to in Article 8 of Directive 2005/44/EC shall maintain and provide via their official website an up-to-date list of Inland ENCs approved for navigation mode within their geographical area of responsibility. The list shall include the file name of the ENC cell, the stretch of the inland waterway that is covered, the edition number, the issue date and a list of available update files to the currently valid edition also with their issue dates. The list shall include all Inland ENC for which the cell complies with the requirements as regards the minimum content and is approved for navigation mode.
The notification of competent authorities in accordance with Article 8 of Directive 2005/44/EC shall include information on the geographical area of responsibility and the official website of the competent authorities. Member States shall notify the Commission immediately of any changes.
The following Codes for Waterways shall be used in the file name of IENCs:
