Land Procurement for Public Interest by Mining Andesite for the Construction of the Bener Dam

Abstract

Land procurement for public purposes carried out by the government is regulated in statutory regulations, and the existence of these statutory regulations is intended to provide legal certainty regarding land ownership. In reality, land procurement for public purposes in Wadas village has caused conflict and there is no certainty in resolving it. The problem is efforts to resolve disputes between the government and the residents of Wadas village. The research method used is descriptive-normative with a qualitative model. The results of the research explain that conflicts over land procurement for the public interest are complicated and never subside due to regulatory weaknesses and errors in the application of land law so that in implementation the interests of land rights holders are not protected with certainty. Apart from that, the lack of political stability and very high government authority also causes land issues to be neglected.
