Résumé

This International Agreement establishes requirements for the navigation and exploitation of the River Gambia. Navigation shall be open to nationals, merchant ships and goods of the contracting States, to vessels chartered by one or more contracting States, and this on equal basis as far as port charges and commercial navigation dues are concerned. No project which is likely to bring about serious modifications on the characteristics of the river's regime, on its navigation conditions, the agricultural and industrial exploitation of the river, the sanitary state of the waters, the biological characteristics of its fauna and its flora, as well as its water level, will be implemented without the prior approval of the contracting States. Such approval should be received within six months. Beyond this deadline the State concerned may, as of right, proceed with the execution of its project.
