Husbandry Techniques of Lepidochlys olivacea at Raksa Bintana Sea Turtle Conservation, Indonesia

Currently, the threat to sea turtle conservation is still quite high both by natural and anthropogenic (human) factors. Therefore, we try to make efforts in sea turtle conservation, through transferring sea turtle eggs to a semi-natural nest. Subsequently, the rearing of hatchlings that successfully hatched from semi-natural nests. Based on these factors, it is important for us to know how to preserve Lepidochlys olivacea and to analyze the physical and chemical parameters of hatchling rearing. The method of rearing the sea turtles after hatching at the research site has 3 stages, namely moving the newly hatched baby turtles from semi-natural nests to the rearing tanks, 30-day rearing actions in the holding tanks (feeding, changing water, and checking water quality) and releasing the sea turtles to their natural environment, namely the open sea. From the data that has been taken for 30 days, the average temperature results were found to be 26-28oC, for salinity data of 22-25 ppm and for DO data of 7.7-7.9. The measured DO data is still under the range of PP 22 of 2021 Appendix VIII concerning the Implementation of Environmental Protection and Management.

Legal safeguards for nature conservation and environmental preservation

The current situation with the surrounding natural environment has reached a critical point, making nature conservation questions highly relevant today. The research aims to examine the key legislative provisions regarding the protection of nature and the environment. The study utilizes methods of analysis, synthesis, scientific generalization, and formal-structural methods. The publication addresses the correlation between ecological and nature-resource law. It is stated that legal protection of nature and the environment in Ukraine operates on three levels: constitutional, legislative, and at the level of sub-legal normative legal acts. The content of the Law of Ukraine, "On the Protection of the Environment," has been analyzed. This approach allowed for the classification of the provisions of the law into two major groups: functionally competent and those intended to ensure the general mechanism of environmental protection implementation. The appropriateness of using the term "environment" rather than "natural environment" at the level of Chapter VIII of the Criminal Code of Ukraine is considered. After reviewing the content of Chapter VIII of the Criminal Code of Ukraine, the authors conclude that most criminal offenses in this Chapter are characterized by the material composition of a crime. Article 245 of the Criminal Code of Ukraine was chosen as an example of analysis. The article discusses the elements of the criminal offense prescribed by Article 245 of the Criminal Code of Ukraine and the sanctions provided by the legislator for this type of criminal offense. Recommendations were developed to allow courts to impose penalties for violations more substantively under Article 245 of the Criminal Code of Ukraine. The authors described the qualified composition of the criminal offense prescribed by Part 2 of Article 245 of the Criminal Code of Ukraine. The paper investigates the place of ecocide in the system of criminal offenses against peace, the security of humanity, and international law. It examines the name of the special section of the Code of Ukraine on Administrative Offenses, noting its somewhat unconventional nature.

Analysis of the role of local government in the prevention of environmental damage in Kuala Tanjung Industrial Park, North Sumatra, Indonesia

The development of active industrial areas in the production process of course produces waste that can damage the surrounding environment. Kuala Tanjung Village is a Priority Industrial Area based on Presidential Regulation Number 56 of 2018. A review of environmental impacts needs to be carried out. Active local government participation is needed, of course through regulation. This research aims to examine the efforts made by the Government of Batu Bara Regency to prevent environmental damage to the industrial area in Kuala Tanjung village. The research method used is a qualitative method with a descriptive type of research. While the data used are primary data and secondary data. The result showed that the Regional Government of Batubara Regency has Regional Regulation Number 2 of 2022 concerning the implementation of environmental protection and management. However, it is a pity that the regulation has just been issued, even though several companies have been operating for a long time. Furthermore, there are also programs and activities carried out, namely monitoring river water, routine monitoring of companies, and planting mangrove forests. The entire program is still limited to liquid waste, while air quality is far from being a concern. Coupled with the lack of budget allocations, the programs that are run are still very limited.

POLITICAL SHIFT LAW SETTLEMENT OF FLY ASH AND BOTTOM ASH (FABA) COAL BASED ON ECOLOGICAL JUSTICE

Purpose: This research aims to gain a comprehension understading on the factors causing the shift in political law regulation of fly ash and bottom ash (FABA) coal waste from hazardous and toxic waste (B3) to non-B3 status and provide a solution to the regulatory model for coal FABA based on ecological justice. Theoretical framework: This study also anchors from environmental justice theories known as “political ecology” from the perspective of “procedural justice” and “distributive justice”. Method: This qualitative research was approached as socio-legal research specifications. Miles et al.’s (2014) qualitative data analysis process was employed to analyze the data. Result and conclusion: The research results show that the political shift in the legal regulation of FABA should be based on ecological justice. The causal factor, the formation of law, is influenced by political and economic factors. While economic factors remain the dominant basis in establishing Government Regulation Number 22 of 2021, the environment should also be the consideration. Most of the construction of the regulation has not been based on the precautionary principle, non-regression, ecological justice, Pancasila justice, certainty, benefit, legal morality, and international agreements. Practical implication: This study contributes that the implementation of environmental protection and management needs to be reconstructed based on provisions, principles, and principles in forming arrangements such as the precautionary principle, the precautionary principle, the non-regression principle, the ecological justice principle, national justice [Pancasila], certainty, expediency, legal morality, and international agreements, to produce regulations in the environmental sector based on ecological justice.

PEMANFAATAN LIMBAH SERBUK GERGAJIAN KAYU ULIN (Eusideroxylon zwageri T & B) UNTUK MENURUNKAN KADAR FECAL COLIFORM AIR SUNGAI

Martapura river water is included in categories that have a fairly high bacterial content, which is 21,333 colonies/100 ml. The optimal value of water quality standards to be met with water treatment businesses is the use of ironwood sawdust waste. Bacteria in water attach most of their lives to suspension particles, so microscopic organisms are also separated or filtered. The purpose of this study was to analyze fecal coliform in river water and analyze the volume of ironwood sawdust to reduce fecal coliform levels in river water. Martapura river water contains the highest fecal 1,800MPN/100ml and the lowest 1,600MPN/100 ml, according to the Minister of the Republic of Indonesia No. 22 of 2021 concerning the implementation of environmental protection and management related to standards, including category two which is used as water tourism facilities/infrastructure, freshwater fish farming, animal husbandry, plant irrigation and other activities requiring the same water quality and use. Ironwood sawdust as much as 25% or 90 grams proved most effective to be used to reduce fecal levels with an average value on the first day of 1,650 MPN/100ml and on the third day with treatment carried out up to indigo 350 MPN/100ml, so that the difference reached a value of 1,300 MPN/100ml.

Analisis Kualitas Air Kali Surabaya terhadap Kandungan Logam Berat sebagai Air Baku PDAM Surabaya

Domestic and industrial waste has been identified as containing many heavy metals as indicators in water bodies. The research aims to analyze the heavy metal quality of Surabaya river water and predict its quality as sustainable raw water. This research was located in the Surabaya River in the Karangpilang IPAM intake segment. The research method uses a forecasting approach based on primary data using a purposive sampling method and laboratory tests. The results showed that the heavy metal concentrations of Cr = <0.0117, Cu = <0.0090 and Pb = 0.001-0.010 did not exceed the quality standards based on class I classification of PP No. 22 of 2021 concerning Implementation of Environmental Protection and Management. The concentrations of heavy metals Cr and Cu are still lower than the detection limit of the test equipment, so forecasting is only carried out on the heavy metal Pb. The simulation results for the next 10 years still get results that meet the quality standards, but when compared with the actual ones with MAPE validation, there are several values that exceed the standards with very bad forecasting levels.

International legal cases enhancing the scope of environmental protection

International jurisprudence has a crucial role in the development of international environmental law. There is a close relationship between legal cases and environmental protection in international environmental law. Legal cases address contemporary problems and include new legal principles and rules of international law that can develop the scope (principles, structures and implementation) of environmental protection. In this perspective, judgments, advisory opinions and decisions of the international courts and tribunals, especially the International Court of Justice, have shown that State sovereignty has always been a limitation of the global expansion of environmental protection scope. Moving from absolute State sovereignty to the rule-based equitable and reasonable use of land could be an excellent opportunity to develop this legal field. Environmental protection emerged in the Trail Smelter case of 1941 as an earlier environmental dispute which resulted in the development of the environmental protection concept in other legal cases. Based on selected cases in international environmental law, the research attempts to analyze three stages of the emergence, enhancement and evolution of the environmental protection principle.

Concept of environmental compliance in the transition to the green economy and ways of its development

Currently, green economy and green energy are world trends. The world's transition to a green economy cannot be ignored. Organizations that fail to adapt to these conditions face financial losses. That is why environmental compliance should be given special attention, as the risks associated with environmental legislation can be very dangerous for business. During the transition to the green economy, preserving the environment allows enterprises to adapt to new market conditions. Compliance with environmental norms, laws and regulations allows to achieve a positive result in the way of increasing the investment attractiveness of business. Currently, it also affects the status of enterprises among the population. In order to organize a comprehensive environmental audit in general enterprises, an integrated system of environmental compliance is needed and it is necessary to introduce environmental compliance into the management of the enterprise by creating synergy with the audit, which should be implemented as a process accompanying the environmental audit. It helps to timely identify and prevent weaknesses of the company in the field of environmental protection and identifies environmental risks aimed at avoiding losses during the implementation of environmental protection. This, in turn, is the way to improve the environmental situation at the level of the republic, when enterprises and businesses obey environmental legislation and implement it on their part. espite the lack of clear advantages, companies should protect the environment because it ensures that legally sound decisions are made with a view to the future. Environmental compliance is a system tool that complements management and helps to pass environmental audits at an appropriate level in environmental management.

Aplikasi Beads Komposit Chitosan – Clay Sebagai Adsorben dalam Penyerapan Ion Klorida (Cl-) Pada Air Payau

Water resources found in coastal areas and islands in terms of water quality are still relatively low, so treatment is necessary. Chitosan and clay are adsorbents that can be applied in various techniques to overcome environmental pollution. Chitosan is a natural adsorbent that has a high adsorption capacity but has low mechanical stability and is easily dissolved in an acidic medium. Clay is an adsorbent with a large specific surface area and has high mechanical stability. This research uses chitosan – clay beads, which aim to increase mechanical stability environmental resistance, and efficiency in brackish water treatment. It is located in Bandar Sungai Village, Sabak Auh District, Siak Regency. The research was conducted by varying the concentration of chitosan–clay beads (1:0), (1:0,25), (1:0,5), and (1:0,75) (w/w) to decrease the chloride ion (Cl-) in brackish water. The characterization of chitosan-clay beads with the water absorption test obtained the best results at the concentration variation (1:0), which was equal to 694,079%. The mechanical strength test obtained the best results at the concentration variation (1:0,75), which was 6,23 kgf. The characterization of chitosan-clay beads using SEM showed that the beads had larger pores. The results obtained show the best chloride ion removal efficiency (Cl-) of 90,828% with a final concentration of 113 mg/L at a concentration of chitosan – clay beads of (1:0.5) with a sampling time of 30 minutes. The research results have met the quality standards set by the Government Regulation of the Republic of Indonesia Number 22 of 2021 concerning the Implementation of Environmental Protection and Management.

Environmental conflicts in the Arctic zone of the Russian Federation in the field of energy, economic and environmental security

The subject of the article is the provisions of strategic planning documents in the field of ensuring national, environmental, energy and economic security, as well as the provisions of strategic planning documents dedicated to the Russian Arctic. The purpose of the work is to study the above-mentioned documents, identify environmental conflicts consisting in their provisions and develop proposals for their resolution and prevention. The methodological basis of the study is based on the system of methods, means of cognition and logical techniques, in the process of work general scientific, private and special methods were used. Such as synthesis, analysis, deduction, analogy, induction, formal legal and others. The relevance of the research topic is indicated by the fact that the Arctic plays an important role in ensuring Russia's strategic national interests in such areas as the economy, transport, environmental protection, defense, and a number of others. Many aspects of Russia's national security depend on the state of the environment of the Russian Arctic, as well as on the implementation of economic activities on its territory, therefore, the resolution and prevention of environmental conflicts concerning this region is an important and urgent task, since without a balance of interests in this area, both the sustainable development of the Russian Arctic and preservation of its unique natural environment seems unlikely. The paper concludes that in order to resolve the main law-making environmental conflict that takes place in the strategic documents under consideration, it is necessary to exclude from the list of threats (challenges) to economic and energy security such a factor as redundancy of requirements in the field of environmental safety and the increase in the costs of their implementation. In turn, in order to ensure a balance of interests in the implementation of nature management and environmental protection in the Russian Arctic, it is proposed to use the best available technologies, as well as the natural and ecological framework of the territory.

ALTERNATIF KEBIJAKAN UNTUK FLY ASH AND BOTTOM ASH (STUDI KASUS: PP NO. 22 TAHUN 2021)

The need for electricity supply in Indonesia is increasing amid the availability of main raw materials which can be considered "insufficient". Departing from this, the government plans to increase power generation capacity which is then outlined in the Electricity Supply Business Plan (RUPTL) since 2017. However, instead of using renewable energy, the power plant used is a power plant with coal as raw material. Even though the threat of climate change is increasingly real for the whole world. Indonesia's dependence on coal was increasingly felt when the Government issued PP No. 22 of 2021 concerning the Implementation of Environmental Protection and Management which is a derivative of Law no. 11 of 2020 concerning Job Creation. In this regulation, Fly Ash and Bottom Ash (FABA) dust, which is the result of burning coal, is removed from the Hazardous and Toxic Waste (B3). The purpose of this study is to provide alternative policies for policy makers by using descriptive qualitative methods in the review process. This study uses a qualitative method by utilizing secondary data with the results in the form of an explanation of alternative policies in overcoming the problem of coal policy which is summarized in PP no. 22 of 2021.

Implementation of pollution source assessment and treatment strategy for plateau railway construction in China: an AHP-cloud model approach.

During the construction process of railways in the plateau region, various types of pollution sources can have serious or even irreversible impacts on the plateau ecology. To address pollution source treatment during the construction process, protect the ecological environment along the railway, and maintain the ecological balance, we collected geological and environmental data and analyzed the influencing factors of pollution sources. Taking sewage as the main research subject, we propose a new method based on the Analytic Hierarchy Process (AHP)-cloud model to classify the pollution source treatment level, establish an index system, and select the ecological environment level, sewage rate, and pollutant characteristics as the three main influencing factors. Finally, we divide the pollution source treatment level into I, II, and III, corresponding to V1 = {I-level} = {high impact}, V2 = {II-level} = {moderate impact}, and V3 = {III-level} = {low impact}. Based on the comprehensive factor weight analysis and the field engineering conditions of the studied railway in the western plateau of China, we classify the pollution source treatment level of six tunnels and propose treatment suggestions for each level. To advance the efficient implementation of environmental protection during the construction of the plateau railway, we propose three policy recommendations that can positively contribute to environmental protection and green development. This work provides theoretical and technical guidance for the treatment of pollution sources in the construction of the plateau railway, which also serves as a significant reference for other similar projects.

Partisipasi Publik dalam Penyusunan Dokumen Analisis Dampak Lingkungan Pasca Berlakunya Undang-Undang/Perppu Cipta Kerja

The Job Creation Law (which has been revoked by Government Regulation in lieu of Law (Perpu) Number 2 of 2022) is a government effort to overcome overlapping regulations to increase investment. This research raises two problem formulations: First, how does the Job Creation Law/Perpu regulate the principle of public participation, particularly in the preparation of the Environmental Impact Assessment (EIA/AMDAL) documents. Second, how does the Job Creation Law/Perpu regulate the role of environmental organizations and what is the urgency of the role of environmental organizations in preparing the AMDAL? This is a normative legal research using literature study methods, qualitative descriptive data analysis methods, as well as conceptual and statutory approaches. The results of the study concluded that, Article 26, Article 39 paragraph (1) and paragraph (2), as well as Article 63 paragraph (1) in the Job Creation Law/Perpu reduce aspects of public participation which had previously been regulated quite well in Law Number 32 of 2009 on Environmental Protection and Management (UU PPLH). The urgency of the role of environmental organizations in preparing the AMDAL is to provide advice and input for the implementation of environmental protection in business activities.

Implementation of Environmental Protection, Sustainable Production, and Labor Protection in Garment Industry Study: Bangladesh and Indonesia

LEGAL POLITICS ON FLY ASH BOTTOM ASH WASTE CONVERSION INTO NON-B3 WASTE AFTER LAW NUMBER 11 OF 2020 CONCERNING JOB CREATION IN INDONESIA

Regarding the implementation of environmental protection and management, notably with regard to non-B3 trash, PP No. 22 of 2021 makes significant changes. Under appendix XIV of PP No. 22 for the year 2022, mining waste in the form of fly ash and bottom ash (FABA) is no longer categorised as hazardous and toxic waste (B3). Although it is recorded with the waste codes N106 for fly ash and N107 for bottom ash, it is still categorised as non-B3 waste. In this case, the government has loosened the regulations by removing coal ash from the B3 waste list rather than strengthening control and levying fines on the management of coal ash from power plants, which would lower the risk of exposure. Many impacts result from the conversion of FABA waste to non-B3 trash. Before PP No. 22 of 2021, FABA was classified as B3 trash, which had stricter waste management standards and procedures. This makes one of them a corporate criminal liability. The government is blamed for not performing adequate oversight, applying the law correctly, and managing environmental contamination that has an impact on public health. As a result, to avoid FABA pollution from lowering environmental quality, current regulations must be reinforced and made more preventative, based on the precautionary principle.
