The purpose of this study was to determine the implementation of regulations on illegal sand mining activities in Sleman Regency. The approach used is a legal regulation approach. The results of the study found that the implementation of regulations in illegal sand mining activities in Sleman Regency had not been implemented properly. In fact there are many violations committed by miners in running their businesses, and many mining activities are carried out illegally without having a mining business permit. In addition, the obstacle faced in implementing the regulation is that the miners believe that the sand they take is a blessing due to the eruption of Mount Merapi, so they assume that they can mine in large quantities. In addition, there are limitations to regional budgets that often become obstacles in implementing reclamation as an act of restoring environmental damage carried out by the Environment Agency both at the provincial and district / city levels as well as the limited number of personnel and experts.

Indonesia is a country with abundant natural resources, including those with enough potential, namely the mining sand industry. Mining on a large scale is good for economic growth, but vice versa on the environmental impacts caused. Environmental damage due to exploitation also occurred in Brumbung village, Kediri district. Environmental damage caused by existing sand mining creates problems that must be claimed by all parties. This paper examines how the impact caused by sand mining activities on the surrounding environment. This type of research is descriptive-qualitative, where the research process and understanding are based on the methodology that investigates a phenomenon. To study this problem, observations and questions and answers were made to the miners, the surrounding community and also the relevant offices. The observed location is around the Brantas River where there are sand mining activities in Brumbung Village, Kepung Subdistrict, Kediri District. research in the area is motivated by the phenomenon of the large number of illegal sand mining in the Brantas river, especially in the self-inflated village, which has many pros and cons in the surrounding community. The environment itself is all things, conditions, conditions and influences that are in the space we occupy and affect the things that live, including human life. Population growth has increased the need for clothing, food, shelter, clean water and energy. This results in higher exploitation of natural resources and tends to neglect environmental aspects. Therefore there is a need for research on the study of environmental impacts, both physical and socio-economic activities of sand mining in the berumbung village, in order to obtain an overview of the environmental impacts that occur or will occur. Later this research is to be taken into consideration in making policies related to the problem of sand mining.

This study focuses on the pattern of community resistance affected by the Brown Canyon sand mining in Semarang. The community response that should occur when there is sand mining with indications of environmental damage is open resistance. This study tries to provide another picture from previous research, about how the community does not take open resistance to sand mining activities. The research method used is ethnography with research instruments in the form of participatory observation, interviews and literature studies. Determination of informants is based on the radius of the distance to the community most affected by mining activities. The results showed that the resistance pattern of the affected community was based on four factors. First, the community is indifferent to access to information about environmental issues such as impacts and mining permits. Second, the community considers the owner of the mine to be from their environment which should not be rejected. Third, the community feels that the opening of jobs from mining activities is an advantage for them. Fourth, the community realizes that the political power of mining owners is very strong to be resisted. These four factors then form a closed resistance pattern or hidden transcript according to Scott.

Abstract Purpose: This study aims to determine whether sand mining activities in Pasir Sakti District cause environmental damage and directly impact the community's life sector. There are over 1000 hectares of abandoned mining areas. The researcher is interested in examining problems, in this case, how efforts to control environmental damage caused by sand mining activities are progressing and what factors are impeding the implementation of environmental damage control. Research Methodology: This research takes an empirical normative approach to the problem. This is accomplished by describing and analyzing the results obtained from library data and field observations. Results: The findings indicated that a variety made efforts to implement control of parties, including the Environmental Service, the Police, and the community. Socialization of the community is needed in order to deter illegal mining and the resulting environmental damage. As a countermeasure, the imposition of administrative sanctions in government coercion through the control of illegal mining activities. Additionally, community involvement in rehabilitating and reforesting former mining areas contributes to recovery should be imposed. These parties' environmental damage control efforts have been less than optimal due to impeding factors such as a lack of institutional coordination or cooperation among the parties responsible for implementing the control and the absence of strict sanctions against illegal sand miners Contribution: The author proposes a review of existing control programs and increased enforcement efforts against illegal sand miners.

Marine sand mining activities in Lontar Village have been started legally since 2003 and temporarily halted in 2013. The locals blamed the activities for severe environmental destruction in almost every corner of the village such as low productivity ofaquaculture, coastal erosion, and habitat loss. This paper has an objective to provide preliminary data and analyses for environmental impact assessment of marine sand mining in Serang (Lontar Village). Field investigations were carried out in June 2014 to collect primary data such as bathymetrical data and water quality parameters in the region to understand the environmental conditions after 10 years of marine sand mining activities as well as the characteristicsof local oceanography. Extensive interview with the locals were also conducted to collect information about the socio-economic conditions of the village. Field findings showed that LontarVillage have experienced critical environmental problems such as coastal erosion, high turbidiy and loss of marine lives. Moreover, we also found that the abandoned aquaculture fields have also been converted as sand mining quarries. Recommendations to reduce further environmental damage in Lontar Village are proposed considering both socio-economy and physical aspects.

Natural resource management that does not pay attention to the principles of conservation of natural resources and the environment will have negative implications for environmental sustainability. With the discovery of gold on the coast of Tamiouw Village at this time, residents' activities have shifted to gold mining activities in the coastal area of Tamilouw. This study aims to determine the impact of gold mining on the physical environment in Tamilouw Village, Amahai District, Central Maluku Regency, as well as to determine the impact of gold mining on the social and economic environment of the local community. The research  was  conducted  using  non-experimental  methods,  namely exploratory descriptive,  field observations  and literature study. The results showed that gold mining carried out in Tamilouw Village uses mercury in the process of separating gold from sand, although there are also some people who carryout traditional processing. What some people are worried about is that the disposal of mercury waste is not carried out according to the required procedures, so that it will have an impact on environmental damage. The existence of mining activities does not affect the social aspects, namely education, health and age and gender; while from the economic aspect, it also contributes to increasing people's income.

Coal is one of the most mining commodities to date, especially to supply both national and international energy needs. Coal mining activities that are not well managed will have an impact on the occurrence of environmental damage. This research tried to utilize the multitemporal Landsat data to analyze the land damage caused by coal mining activities. The research took place at several coal mine sites in East Kalimantan Province. The method developed in this research is the method of change detection. The study tried to know the land damage caused by mining activities using NDVI (Normalized Difference Vegetation Index), NDSI (Normalized Difference Soil Index), NDWI (Normalized Difference Water Index) and GEMI (Global Environment Monitoring Index) parameter based change detection method. The results showed that coal mine area along with the damage that occurred in it can be detected from multitemporal Landsat data using NDSI value-based change detection method. The area damage due to coal mining activities  can be classified into high, moderate, and low classes based on the mean and standard deviation of NDSI changes (ΔNDSI). The results of this study are expected to be used to support government efforts and mining managers in post-mining land reclamation activities.
