Article No. 82.
Appeal of the Council of People's Commissars of the USSR and the Central Committee of the CPSU (b).
About river transport.
To all party, Soviet economic, water transport, trade union and Komsomol organizations.
The growth of the national economy of the USSR requires the river transport to radically restructure its work in accordance with the pace of the expanded socialist reconstruction.
Meanwhile, river transport has not yet been rebuilt, and the description given to its state in the report of the Central Committee to the 16th Party Congress remains fully valid to this day.
The economic condition of river transport does not meet the increased demands on the part of the national economy. From year to year, the failure to fulfill the production program is repeated, the reconstruction has not yet begun, the percentage of accidents is very high, the directive of the Central Committee on the implementation of one-man command has not been fulfilled, socialist competition and shock work are poorly developed.
Considering all this, the Council of People's Commissars of the USSR and the Central Committee of the CPSU (b) consider it necessary to urgently implement the following measures.

Introduce fundamental changes to the organizational reform of river transport, carried out by the People's Commissariat of Railways in 1930.
1. The ship . In order to eliminate the largest shortcomings in the condition of the vessel (low efficiency in using its speed, power and carrying capacity, poor technical condition of machines and poor maintenance of them, lack of careful supervision when accepting a steamer from repair, weak discipline, poor organization of unloading and loading work and the lack of unity of command), establish the following order.
The ship, as a primary economic unit, must be equated to an enterprise. The vessel must operate on a self-supporting basis and have a firm industrial financial plan.
The captain, navigating the ship on the basis of one-man command, is responsible for order on the steamer, for the accurate and accurate performance of their duties by all service personnel, for correct navigation (prevention of accidents, downtime, grounding, etc.), for the full implementation of operational technical meters and for the implementation of the industrial financial plan established for the vessel. The captain is fully responsible for the technical condition of the vessel, for the work of the engine crew, including the mechanic, who is fully subordinate in his work to the captain.
The captain is responsible for a thorough inspection and assessment of the repair of the ship when it is taken out of repair, for the identification of defects and for the precise determination of the scope of the repair when handing over for repair and oversees the complete implementation of the qualitative and quantitative aspects of the repair in the backwater.
The People's Commissariat of Water Transport shall develop a precise regulation on the rights and duties of the captain and his assistants, determining the number of assistants on various types of ships and establishing the categories of masters and their assistants in accordance with the categories of ships (5 categories).
In order to increase the proportion of the management personnel of the engine room, appoint a mechanic as deputy master of the vessel for technical matters.
2. The pier . The marina must play a decisive role in the timely loading and unloading of steamers and therefore in the acceleration of their turnover.
The duties of the head of the pier include:
monitoring the timely loading and unloading of ships and the full utilized capacity of ships in terms of their loading;
monitoring the timely dispatch of ships and strict adherence to the schedule;
correct and timely formation of freight caravans; control and maintenance of the roadstead by small vessels and monitoring the performance of all auxiliary functions by them;
timely supply of all ships and crews with materials, fuel, food;
rendering assistance to the captains of ships in emergency repairs, when grounding, etc .;
accurate and uninterrupted operation of communication (telephone, telegraph, radio, dispatch service);
management of the pier, maintaining cleanliness and order, work on the repair of the pier and the services adjacent to the pier;
monitoring the warehouse facilities of the pier;
acceptance, storage and delivery of goods, timely warning of the shipper about the receipt of the goods and impact on the shipper in order to accelerate unloading;
creating the necessary conditions for servicing passengers (timely boarding, keeping the marina clean, etc.).
At the main large and nodal marinas, the heads of the marinas should be assigned for the whole year without dismissing them for the winter.
The heads of the marinas are directly subordinate to the district administrations.
3. District administration . Organize up to 50 regional river fleet administrations. Propose to the People's Commissariat of Water Transport to determine the exact boundaries of the regions, taking into account the volume and nature of cargo turnover, the technical and operational conditions of the river and the needs of the region.
The district office manages river transport within the district. As the organ of the river state shipping, the district administration fulfills all its directives and orders for the operation, repair and maintenance of the track and transit fleet, which is at the operational disposal of the state shipping company.
The district administration conducts direct operational and economic work within the fleet that is assigned to this district for intra-district transportation. In this part, the district administration has its own industrial financial plan and operates as a self-supporting unit, under the control and general management of the state shipping company.
The duties of the district administration include managing the work of the heads of the marinas, monitoring, on behalf of the shipping company, the progress of winter repairs in the backwaters located within this region, current construction and maintenance.
The district administration has the following main departments: operation, track, repair and workshops for maintenance, communications and planning and financial.
4. Management of river transport (state shipping) . Reorganize the existing state shipping companies in the following direction:
Divide the entire river fleet into two parts. The first, the main and largest part of the vessels serving transit passenger and cargo traffic, as well as technical vessels, are directly operational and economic subordination of the river state shipping. The second part, the fleet of local regional significance, which is directly under the operational subordination of the regional administration and is included in the industrial financial plan of this region, is controlled and regulated by the state shipping company.
The State Shipping Company is an organ of the People's Commissariat of Water Transport and manages river transport within the basin or part of the basin allocated to it. The state shipping company has its own industrial financial plan and works on the basis of cost accounting.
The state shipping company has the following departments: operation, routes, economic planning, communications, personnel and labor economics, rationalization and inventions, supply, mechanical and ship and construction.
Instead of the existing 23 state shipping companies, create the following 15 shipping companies 1. Volzhskoe, 2. Moskovsko-Okskoe, 3. Kamskoe, 4. Dneprovskoe, 5. Dnepro-Dvinskoe 6. North-West, 7. North, 8. Dono-Kubanskoe, 9. Transcaucasian, 10. Central Asian, 11. West Siberian. 12. Yenisei, 13. East Siberian, 14. Lenskoe, 15. Amur.
Note . On the Ural River, create a district administration subordinate directly to the People's Commissariat of Water Transport.
To abolish the existing state shipping agencies (in the amount of more than 500), transferring their functions to district administrations and large hub quays.
To propose to the People's Commissariat of Water Transport within ten days to develop specific directives for carrying out this reorganization and to complete it no later than within a month.
The People's Commissariat of Water Transport undertakes to give practical instructions to the places, sending its representatives to the basins and convening, as necessary, meetings of the leadership staff to explain the essence of the reform and the tasks of the nearest navigation.

¹ * All the listed rates are taken for the Volga basin. In all other basins, calculations are made at their existing rates with unconditional observance of the percentages of ton-kilometer payment established here.
V. Work of trade unions and party organizations. Frames.
The Central Committee of the CPSU (b) notes the unsatisfactory state of the work of the professional and party organizations of water workers. The trade union and party organizations of the water workers failed to mobilize and organize the masses for the successful implementation of the industrial financial plan and for increasing labor productivity. Among the workers of the water transport, and especially among the sailing personnel, socialist competition and shock workers are poorly developed, labor discipline and labor productivity are low. The decision of the Central Committee of the party on one-man management was not implemented.
Party organizations of river transport are the most backward in organizing party and mass production work in comparison with Party organizations in other sectors of the national economy. The work of recruiting workers into the party was clearly unsatisfactory and the party layer was extremely low (2-3 percent), which led to the almost complete absence of ship cells.
Eliminating these shortcomings in the shortest possible time is the combat task of the Party, economic, professional and Komsomol organizations of river transport.
The Central Committee of the All-Union Communist Party (Bolsheviks) and the Council of People's Commissars of the USSR suggest that local party and Komsomol organizations concentrate the focus of all mass work on a decisive struggle against truancy, avarice, for raising labor discipline, relying on the advanced strata of workers in the water sector, on shock workers. It is necessary to arrange the work of comradely courts in such a way that they actually become organizations of comradely influence and education of the backward strata of water workers. All work to improve labor discipline should be developed around the fulfillment and overfulfillment of production targets based on socialist competition, shock work, deployment of production conferences and the widespread use of incentive measures for shock workers both by improving their financial situation and by promoting them to more responsible work.
Imposing enormous tasks on the command staff of the river fleet and expanding its rights, the Central Committee of the All-Union Communist Party (Bolsheviks) and the Council of People's Commissars of the USSR pay special attention to economic, party and trade union organizations to setting the task of correctly promoting workers to command posts. Such workers should be promoted to command posts who have shown in practice their dedication to the cause of the working class, have gone through a practical school of work in the navy, have shown the ability to lead the fleet, have shown a willingness to learn and retrain the business of managing the fleet, have the desire and ability to master the technique of business. The Council of People's Commissars of the USSR and the Central Committee of the All-Union Communist Party (Bolsheviks) believe that only having mastered this method of promoting workers in the river fleet to command posts, it will be possible to strengthen the cadres and raise them to the proper height.
The Council of People's Commissars of the USSR and the Central Committee of the All-Union Communist Party of Bolsheviks do not doubt that the Party, Soviet, economic, trade union and Komsomol organizations will not be slow to take all measures to ensure that this appeal is unconditionally implemented.
