Analysis of Factors Affecting Environmental management and Monitoring Implementation of Business and/or Activity (A Case Study The Implementation of Amdal and UKL-UPL at Padang Pariaman District)

Abstract

Research on the factors affecting the implementation of environmental management and monitoring of business and/or activity through the implementation of Amdal and UKL-UPL at Padang Pariaman District was conducted from August to October 2017. The research method is quantitative and qualitative combination (mixed method). This research adopted the Mazmanian and Sabatier (1983) theories to identify factors affecting the implementation, including the problem of characteristic (tractability), policy and non statutory variables. The results show that the management and monitoring of the business environment and/or activities have not been implemented properly, and proven to be influenced by these three factors. Characteristics of the problem include various constraints in the implementation process. Policy characteristics include clarity of regulatory contents that govern the obligations of Environmental License holders and the application of administrative punishment, limited budget available, lack of coordination between relevant agencies, and community involvement in implementation. Non statutory variables include community support for implementation, negative business and/or activity responses to implementation objectives, and business and/or activity capabilities in the implementation process. In addition to these three factors, two other matters affecting implementation, namely communication between the business person in charge and/or activity with the environmental agency and the unclear substance of RKL-RPL in some business and/or activity.
