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.

Abstract Small-scale mining has a very long history, and the majority operated without permits: coal and almost all kinds of minerals they cultivate. The area of operation covers most of Indonesia. There are grab licensed mining areas. The number of illegal miners is estimated at more than 3.6 million people, about 1.4 million gold miners. This activity has been going on for years, never be solved. The Negative impacts of illegal mining, include the loss of potential state revenue, environmental damage and mercury pollution, mining accidents, social vulnerabilities, conflicts with licensed companies, and no resource conservation. It is time for this issue serious attention of the government to be resolved. Legalization by granting permits can be a business guarantee that will grow responsibility for regulations and become the basis for environmental management. This research is socio-legal research. The role of local governments, associations, and the state-owned company is required in technical guidance on mining and the environment, institutions, business management, and product markets. If the activities can be managed and developed, the negative impacts can be overcome. So, the benefits of their business can become a forum for people’s activities in the mining sector, and state revenues can be collected.

The Impact

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.

Community Resistance

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.

The issuance of law number 4 of 2009 concerning mineral and coal mining provides a new authority in the world of the act does not close the gap of illegal mining which is rife in Indonesia. Although the law already exists, the fact is that mining without permits continues. This study aims to determine the forms of non-criminal illegal mining and accountability. Forms of illegal mining are criinal acts of mining without permission either UIP, IPR or IUPK. Criminal offenses submit false report data, criminal offenses of exploration without rights, criminal offenses as holders of UIP exploration without carrying out production operations activities, criminal acts of laundering mining goods, criminal offenses related to abuse of authority of the official of the licensing authority, criminal acts which is a legal entity. The criminal liability against companies that carry aut mining activities without a permit is by imprisonment and with a criminal fine. Besides that the leablity for companies that conduct mining with civi sanctions and also administrative sanctions by way of making a business.

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.

Illegal Mining

Illegal small-scale mining (galamsey) in South-Western Ghana has grown tremendously in the last decade and caused significant environmental degradation. Excessive cloud cover in the area has limited the use of optical remote sensing data to map and monitor the extent of these activities. This study investigated the use of annual time-series Sentinel-1 data to map and monitor illegal mining activities along major rivers in South-Western Ghana between 2015 and 2019. A change detection approach, based on three time-series features—minimum, mean, maximum—was used to compute a backscatter threshold value suitable to identify/detect mining-induced land cover changes in the study area. Compared to the mean and maximum, the minimum time-series feature (in both VH and VV polarization) was found to be more sensitive to changes in backscattering within the period of investigation. Our approach permitted the detection of new illegal mining areas on an annual basis. A backscatter threshold value of +1.65 dB was found suitable for detecting illegal mining activities in the study area. Application of this threshold revealed illegal mining area extents of 102 km2, 60 km2 and 33 km2 for periods 2015/2016–2016/2017, 2016/2017–2017/2018 and 2017/2018–2018/2019, respectively. The observed decreasing trend in new illegal mining areas suggests that efforts at stopping illegal mining yielded positive results in the period investigated. Despite the advantages of Synthetic Aperture Radar data in monitoring phenomena in cloud-prone areas, our analysis revealed that about 25% of the Sentinel-1 data, mostly acquired in March and October (beginning and end of rainy season respectively), were unusable due to atmospheric effects from high intensity rainfall events. Further investigation in other geographies and climatic regions is needed to ascertain the susceptibility of Sentinel-1 data to atmospheric conditions.

Long-term continuous monitoring of the mining activities in open-pit coal mines is conducive to planning and management of the mining operations. Additionally, this faciliatates assessment on their environmental impact and supervises illegal mining behaviors. Interferometric Synthetic Aperture Radar (InSAR) technology can be effectively applied in the monitoring of open-pit mines where vegetation is sparse and land cover is dominated by bare rock. The main objective of this study is to monitor the mining activities of four open-pit coal mines in the Wucaiwan mining area in China from 2018 to 2020, namely No. 1, No. 2 (containing two mining areas), and No. 3. We use the normalized differential activity index (NDAI) based on the coherence coefficient as an indicator of the mine activity due to its robustness to temporal and spatial decorrelation. After analyzing and removing the decorrelation caused by rain and snow weather, 70 NDAI images in 12-day intervals are obtained from Sentinel-1A InSAR coherence images. Then, the annually-averaged NDAI images are applied to an RGB composite technique (red for 2018, green for 2019, blue for 2020) to express the interannual variation of the mining activities. Points of interest are then selected for NDAI time series analysis. The RGB composite results indicated that No. 1 and 3 open-pit coal mines were continuously mined during the three years; whereas, the two mining areas of No. 2 were mainly active in 2018. The 12-day NDAI time-series graphs of No. 2 open-pit coal mine also indicate that the coal piles located in the coal transferring area of the first mining area were not completely removed until April 2019. It is also seen that the second mining area was decommissioned in November 2018 and became rehabilitated in July 2019. Results were validated using the Sentinel-2A images and related background information confirming the efficiency of the proposed approach for monitoring the mining activity in open-pit mines.

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.

Recent floods in Ghana are largely blamed on mining activities. Not only are lives lost through these floods, farms andproperties are destroyed as a result. Water resources are diverted, polluted and impounded upon by both large-scale minersand small-scale miners. Although these activities are largely blamed on behavioural attitudes that need to be changed, thereare legal dimensions that should be addressed as well. Coincidentally, a great proportion of the water resources of Ghana arewithin these mining areas thus the continual pollution of these surface water sources is a serious threat to the environmentand the development of the country as a whole. The environmental laws need to be oriented properly with adequate sanctionsto tackle the impacts mining has on water resources. The Environmental Impact Assessment (EIA) procedure needs to bestreamlined and undertaken by the Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) and not the company itself.
