Which group is NOT involved in the Waterways Action Plan?

The group that is not involved in the Waterways Action Plan is the Navy. The Waterways Action Plan primarily focuses on improving the efficiency and safety of navigation on inland waterways by engaging with agencies that directly manage or regulate these waterways, as well as industries that rely on them.

The United States Coast Guard (USCG) and the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers (USACE) play critical roles within the Waterways Action Plan. The USCG is responsible for maritime safety, security, and stewardship, while the USACE manages and maintains the rivers, lakes, and navigation systems. The marine industry is also a key player, as it encompasses the businesses and stakeholders that utilize these waterways for transportation and commerce.

While the Navy operates in maritime environments, its primary focus is on military applications and defense rather than on the management and regulatory aspects of inland waterways that the other organizations are concerned with in the context of the Waterways Action Plan.
