Last month, the International Rowing Federation (FISA) created a policy to ensure that any Russian rower wishing to compete internationally this year may do so as long as they adhere to a "credible and internationally equivalent anti-doping testing regime".

The athlete list has now been submitted in response to this, RRF President Alexei Svirin told TASS.

"We have already received their confirmation of receipt," he said.

"The FISA Executive Committee held its meeting [on March 5], but we have received nothing from them as of yet.

"We are waiting for a letter from them.

"We hope to have it in the next couple of days."

FISA were prompted to act following the release of the McLaren Report, which alleged that more than 1,000 Russian athletes were implicated in a doping manipulation programme across Summer, Winter, non-Olympic and Paralympic sport between 2011 and 2015.

The governing body undertook a review of tests, following a directive set out by the International Olympic Committee's Executive Board, of rowers from Russia since 2011 to establish their eligibility for the Rio 2016 Games.

The outcome was that six of the 26 Russian rowers that had qualified for the Games were declared eligible to compete in Rio.

FISA's anti-doping rules specify that the world governing body is entitled to require any rower for which it has testing authority over to provide a sample at any time and be available for testing.

However, FISA required the RRF to provide a list of all athletes that would potentially be entered at the 2017 World Rowing Championships, World Rowing Under-23 Championships, World Rowing Junior Championships and the European Rowing Championships.

Any rower whose name is not on the list provided by the RRF, or whose previous testing history and subsequent testing results are not considered satisfactory by the FISA Executive Committee, will not be permitted to race in the events concerned in 2017.
