Which code does this activity belong in?

Inland Water Passenger Transportation covers establishments whose primary activity is moving passengers by water on lakes, rivers, or intracoastal waterways, excluding the Great Lakes System. This code distinguishes passenger services from cargo operations; establishments primarily engaged in transporting freight on the same inland waterways are classified in Inland Water Freight Transportation instead. The key dividing line is whether the establishment's main business is carrying people or goods.
