OUTBOUND URGENT MEASURES WATER QUALITY ISSUES • Less of environmental awareness by industries, domestic and agriculture such as: Waste water treatment in industries which still not well function correctly, Disposing of waste water and solid waste directly to the river by the people, Excessive consumption of fertilizer and pesticide by the farmers, Ineffective institutional arrangement for water quality management sue to less of coordination between concerned agencies, and Lack of funding coupled with incomplete regulations and ineffective of law enforcement. WATER POLLUTION EFFECTS • The water quality in the water body are below or exceed the water quality standard, • Eutrophication problem appear in the reservoir due to excessive nutrient in the water cause severe oxygen depletion occur caused fish within the reservoir died and abundance of algae blooming, • Creating water purification difficulties and rises the cost of water treatment. • Domestic water supply companies as the users of the bulk water often can not operated optimally due to the degradation of water quality such as turbidity problem and water pollution. Water Quality Effects at Lower Reach of Brantas River Eutrophication problem in reservoir - Effluent Shock loading by bad industries - Inadequate treatment of domestic waste Low quality of raw water supply for domestic users Metropolitan City of Surabaya RIVER POLLUTANT CARRYING CAPACITY RESEARCH IN BRANTAS • The river pollutant carrying capacity is an important index which can be measure basin pollutant carrying capacity. It is stipulated in the Decree of State Minister for Environmental Affairs, Government of Indonesia No. 110/2003 regarding Guidelines on Stipulation of Accomodating Capacity of Load of Water Pollution in Water Sources, in order to implement the provision in Article 23 paragraph (4) of Government of Indonesia Regulation No. 82/2001 on the management of quality of water and control over water pollution, it is necessary to calculate the river pollutant capacity. • The study of river pollutant capacity in the Brantas River Basin conducted in 2008-2009 and 2011 in cooperation with an academic institution, Institute of Technology Sepuluh November (ITS) of Surabaya.

  • Abstract the Rapid Expansion of Industrialisation in East Java During the Last Two Decades Has Caused Severe River Pollution
    Environmental Technology: Applications in Principle and Practice Some Impacts of Industry Pollution in The Brantas River, East Java, and Constraints on Efforts Towards a Clean-Up: An Overview Peter Koffel Research Staff, Institute for Science and Technology Policy, Murdoch University "If you want to destroy East Java, then you need only destroy the Brantas Basin". (Pak Soelarso, the former Governor of East Java, March, 1993.) "Why am I so 'lucky' to b.e at the centre of so much attention?" (Pak Ischak, Tannery owner, Malang, 1994) "Care for the river is very little. The river must flow to the sea, not be dammed, extracted or polluted". (Pak Usman, shrimp farmer, 1994) "Water management is as much about economics, socia~ and political policies and power as it is about hydrology and ecology". (Jol)nson et al: 1993: 85) Abstract The rapid expansion of industrialisation in East Java during the last two decades has caused severe river pollution. The Brantas River Basin constitutes the core of that industrialisation and the core of much of East Java's development activity. River pollution in some cases has impacted heavily upon riparian communities. Issues of riverwater quality and pollution control have become a focus for government, NCO's, media, educational institutions and foreign aid. These issues, and the focus they are receiving, have created complexities in the political, economic, social and environmental life of the Brantas Basin which are stretching the status quo. In the process of realigning these "life" forces towards a healthy river, inconsistencies and contradictions have become apparent. This paper aims to map out the issues of industrial pollution in the Brantas Basin by exploring the expansion of industry, the impacts it has had on communities and showing that their responses and protests have been an important catalyst in shaking up inertia, though not always with a desired end.

  • The Kolkata (Calcutta) Stone
    The Newsletter | No.74 | Summer 2016 4 | The Study The Kolkata (Calcutta) Stone The bicentennial of the British Interregnum in Java (1811-1816) provides the occasion to contemplate a lost opportunity to right some of the wrongs perpetrated by Sir Stamford Raffles and his light-fingered administration. Salient here is the fate of the two important stone inscriptions – the so-called ‘Minto’ (Sangguran) and ‘Kolkata’(Pucangan) stones – which chronicle the beginnings of the tenth-century Śailendra Dynasty in East Java and the early life of the celebrated eleventh-century Javanese king, Airlangga (1019-1049). Removed to Scotland and India respectively, the article assesses the historical importance of these two inscriptions and suggests ways in which their return might enhance Indonesia’s cultural heritage while strengthening ties between the three countries most intimately involved in Britain’s brief early nineteenth-century imperial moment in Java: India, Indonesia and the United Kingdom.

  • Environmental Dispute Resolution in Indonesia
    E ENVIRONMENTAL DISPUTE NVIRONM RESOLUTION IN INDONESIA E NTAL ENVIRONMENTAL In the last two decades, Indonesia has seen a dramatic proliferation of environmental disputes in a variety of sectors, triggered by intensified deforestation DISPUT and large scale mining operations in the resource rich outer islands, together with rapid industrialisation in the densely populated inner island of Java. Whilst the emergence of environmental disputes has sometimes attracted political repression, E DISPUTE RESOLUTION attempts have also been made in recent times to explore more functional approaches R E to their resolution. The Environmental Management Act of 1997 created a legal SOLUTION framework for the resolution of environmental disputes through both litigation and mediation. IN INDONESIA This book is the first attempt to analyse the implementation of this framework in detail and to assess the effectiveness of litigation and mediation in resolving IN environmental disputes in Indonesia. It includes a detailed overview of the I NDON environmental legal framework and its interpretation by Indonesian courts in landmark court cases. The book features a number of detailed case studies of both environmental litigation and mediation and considers the legal and non-legal factors E SIA that have influenced the success of these approaches to resolving environmental disputes. David Nicholson graduated in Law (Hons) and Asian Studies from Murdoch University in 1995 and was admitted to legal practice in Western Australia in 1997. He subsequently undertook doctoral research on environmental dispute resolution in Indonesia as part of the Indonesia Netherlands Study of Environmental Law and Administration (INSELA) project, based at the Van Vollenhoven Institute at Leiden University, and was awarded a doctorate in law in 2005.

Hananto Kisworo, Dipl.HE Sukiyoto, ME Publisher: Directorate General of Water Resources Yayasan Air Adhi Eka i Japan International Cooperation Agency ii River Management in Indonesia English Edition English edition of this book is a translation from the book : “Pengelolaan Sungai di Indonesia” January 2013 ISBN 978-979-25-64-62-4 Director General of Water Resources Foreword Water, as a renewable resource, is a gift from God for all mankind. Water is a necessity of life for creatures in this world. No water, no life. The existence of water, other than according to the hydrological cycle, at a particular place, at a particular time, and in particular quality as well as quantity is greatly influenced by a variety of natural phenomena and also by human behavior. Properly managed water and its resources will provide sustainable benefits for life. However, on the other hand, water can also lead to disasters, when it is not managed wisely. Therefore, it is highly necessary to conduct comprehensive and integrated water resources management efforts, or widely known as “Integrated Water Resources Management”. In the same way, river management efforts as part of the river basin integrated water resources management, include efforts on river utilization, development, protection, conservation and control, in an integrated river basin with cross-jurisdiction, cross-regional and cross- sectoral approach. This book outlines how water resources development and management in several river basins are carried out from time to time according to the existing situations and conditions, Besides, it covers various challenges and obstacles faced by the policy makers and the implementers in the field, The existing sets of laws and regulations and the various uses and benefits are also discused.

  • IV Tempo Dulu Surabaya, Indonesia and Hotel Majapahit ______
    IV Tempo Dulu Surabaya, Indonesia and Hotel Majapahit ________________________________________ Words and Photography by Kennie Ting Fig 1 – Meditteranean colours abound along the Kali Mas. This one adorns a godown. “ ‘What do you think of that?’ asked Rienkie’s mother, pointing at the painting. ‘A real Indies sky, don’t you think?’ And only a few people could reproduce an Indies sky, she went on to say. To do that you must have lived in the Indies for a long time. In fact, you really had to be born in the Indies.” Robert Nieuwenhuys, Faded Portraits The shadows are cast long in the morning. I walk alone along the Mas River, or Kali Mas, that leads from the old town towards the port. To my left are hundreds of godowns – colonial-era warehouses that used to store goods brought in from the far reaches of the Indies. They are all shuttered for the day, possibly for good. The river itself is sluggish and gray, despite its name meaning River of Gold. I had intended that morning to walk all the way to the mouth of this river, to catch the fabulous sight of pnisis boats – large wooden schooners – that for centuries have shuttled spices and Ting 1 textiles between here and the island of Madura. Mid-way through my walk, I realised that the distance was simply too far to take in on foot and I turned around to head back where I came from. The very act of turning around afforded me a completely different view of the river and its city.

    Japanese ODA to Indonesia Items of the Project Details Project Name Krueng Aceh Urgent Flood Control Project Project Type TC & ODA Loans Project Site The Krueng Aceh Basin, Aceh Province Project Period Preliminary Study: 1972-1973, Feasibility Study: 1979, Detail Design: February 1981 – November 1982, Construction: August 1983 – January 1993 Name of JICA Experts / Consultants Oriental Consultants Co., Ltd. & Associates Project Highlight: Frequent floods occurred prior to the project appraisal (before 1983), but no considerable flooding has occurred since the project completion date Background Krueng Aceh is a major river in the northern part of Sumatra Island with a length of 145 km and river basin area of 1,775 km2, that flows from Suekek Mount through Banda Aceh City toward the Malacca Straits. This river had flooded almost every year, causing significant damage in the Aceh Besar Regency Region (with population of 1.65 million in 1980), including Banda Aceh Municipal. Typically, the flooding covered an area of 25,000 ha, comprising 2,700 ha of residential area, 7,500 ha of paddy field and 4,100 ha of coconut plantations and shepherding meadows. This situation was caused by a limited river capacity of 250 m3/s, compared to the 5-year flood discharge of 1,300 m3/s. Floods in 1953, 1971, 1978, 1983 and 1986 resulted in severe damage to local communities, and sometimes in loss of life Overall Goal The project outputs are consistent with national policy on water resources development i.e., "Conservation of River Channel and Improvement of

  • 3. Brantas Basin Characteristics
    CHAPTER 1 3. Brantas Basin Characteristics (1) Watercourse outline Brantas is the second longest river on Java Island with a length of 320 km and a basin area of 11,800 km2. Its main stream runs most of the way around the Kelud-Arjuno massif located in the center of the basin. The Brantas is joined by a left bank tributary, Lesti River, (basin area of 625 km2), at the point where it flows to the south from its source and its course turns to the west. It changes from a western flow to northern when it enters the alluvial plain, and is joined by a left bank tributary, Ngrowo River (basin area of 1,600 km2) near Tulungagung City. The Brantas continues to the north until joined by a right bank tributary, Konto (basin area of 687 km2) and a left bank tributary, Widas (basin area of 1,538 m2) when it hits the mountainous region of Kendeng after passing Kediri City. Then it tums to the east and branches off in Mojokerto City to Surabaya River and Porong River. It is generally thought that the Surabaya River was originally the main stream of the Brantas, but in the late 19th century the Porong River was constructed as a floodway channel to protect Surabaya City from floods; and today fiood waters from the Brantas main stream al1 run down the Porong. Ravine of the Brantas River source -25- CHAPTER 1 The former main stream, Surabaya River, has a basin area of 650 km2. Its largest tributary, Marmoyo River, flows to the east running parallel to the Brantas.
