Law enforcement is the process of enforcing or trying to implement legal norms as guides for traffic or legal relations in social and state life.

Where each aspect's law enforcement and law enforcement processes are distinct. The research method used was normative legal research. One component of environmental law enforcement is the use of civil law in environmental management. In the Environmental Protection and Management Act (UUPPLH) the process of enforcing environmental law through civil procedures is regulated in Chapter XIII Articles 84 to 93. In order to provide legal clarity in law enforcement, efforts are being made to solve environmental problems that emerge in Indonesia. Environmental law enforcement is an endeavor to ensure that regulations and requirements in general and specific legal provisions are followed and implemented through administrative, civil, and criminal supervision and enforcement. With the adoption of the first environmental rules, namely Law Number 4 of 1982 Concerning Basic Provisions for Environmental Management (UUKPPLH), government policy frameworks in implementing environmental law were actualized. Then, it was later replaced by Law Number 23 of 1997 concerning Environmental Management (UUPLH), which was subsequently replaced by Law Number 32 of 2009 concerning Environmental Protection and Management (UUPPLH) (Tude Trisnajaya, 2013: 2).

Nevertheless, there are problems in implementation, namely due to the unclear model of the application in terms of coordination between lemabaga, resulting in law enforcement in an integrated manner less efficient and effective implementation of this research is library researchusing methods Juridical Empirical and manifold qualitative by examining various kinds of primary and secondary data and will describe how the implementation of integrated law enforcement in environmental crimes based on Law Number 32 of 2009 concerning Environmental Protection and Management and Constitutional Court Decision Number 18/PUU-XII/2014 Date January 21, 2015. Support for environmental criminal law enforcement contained in UUPPLH is the existence of environmental Civil Servant Investigators (PPNS) (Article 94) who have the authority to conduct investigations in cases of environmental pollution and or destruction. Therefore, to inhibit the rate of pollution and environmental destruction, in particular, it is necessary to enforce environmental laws in an integrated manner.

But, enforcement of environmental law is still not as expected, in environmental law enforcement there are several ways of settlement that must be taken, administratively, alternatives dispute resolution and criminal law, but in criminal law enforcement regulated in Article 100 paragraph (2) of Law Number 32 Year 2009 on Environmental Protection and Management, criminal acts can only be applied if the administrative sanction is not complied with or violation is more than one time, then in explanation point 6 of Law Number 32 Year 2009 on Environmental Protection and Management, enforcement of environmental criminal law should pay attention to the principle of ultimum remedium which requires the application of criminal law enforcement as a last resort after the implementation of administrative law enforcement is deemed unsuccessful, and the application of the ultimum remedium principle applies only to certain offensive crimes, namely the prosecution of violations of waste water quality standards, emissions, and disturbances. However, if it is related to the legality principle contained in Article 1 paragraph (1) of the Criminal Code and the basis of criminal abrogation, the ultimum remedium principle is contradictory, criminal law should continue based on the principle of legality and stopped by the ultimum remedium principle on the basis of criminal sanction, whereas the basis of criminal abrogation has been clearly defined in the Criminal Code.

The UK has incorporated the strict liability principle in dealing with the environmental offence in its legislations. However, the principle application has some detrimental impacts. This article aims to discuss strict liability crimes in the UK’s environmental legislations and civil penalties in the UK, the detrimental effects of applying its principle and the reasons for supplementing criminal penalties for environmental offences with civil penalties. This will be done through the adoption of a doctrinal legal research method. The incorporation of strict liability principle in the UK’s legislations can be found in the Environmental Protection Act 1990, the Water Resources Act 1991, Part 2A of the Environmental Protection Act 1990 and the Environmental Permitting (England and Wales) Regulations 2010 (SI 2010 No. 675). The detrimental effects of the principle application are the ignorance of mens rea element, unfair trial, ineffective environmental damage prevention, and contradictory to release right. The reasons for applying civil penalties of criminal law violation in regard with violating environmental law are this punishment is possible to be imposed on companies, it strengthens another kind of non-criminal sentence sanction, it is a peaceful solution, a polluter may manage by himself to repair the damage, it has no stigma on the polluter and it has wider law enforcement form. There is a dearth of literature looking at the latest UK’s legislation incorporating strict liability principle application. This article will fill this literature gap.

A good and healthy environment is a human right of every Indonesian citizen as mandated in Article 28H of the 1945 Constitution of the Republic of Indonesia. Indiscriminate environmental management contributes to the deterioration of the quality of the environment, therefore it is necessary to increase environmental protection and management. The protection and sustainable management of the environment is the responsibility of the government and the community. The government's responsibility in protecting and managing the environment is a function of public services, to ensure that all residents have a good and healthy environment. Then the government can be held accountable, both administratively, civilly and criminally when the government neglects to carry out its obligations that are not in accordance with the aspirations of the community. This research is qualified as a normative legal research by applying several types of approaches, namely, a statutory approach, a conceptual approach, a philosophical approach, a historical approach, a comparative approach, a case approach including a cultural approach based on local community wisdom. Therefore, this study aims to find philosophical and theoretical thoughts based on local wisdom about the nature of integrating community aspirations in the enforcement of Environmental Law both in administrative law, civil law and criminal law. The results of the study show that environmental protection and management is an effort to carry out responsibilities, which is very difficult, resulting in a decrease in the quality of the environment. Therefore, law enforcement is to make improvements to the applicable rules through the politics of normative legislation, then followed by administrative law enforcement. However, participatory environmental enforcement by integrating the values ​​that develop in the community in protecting and preserving the environment is an ideal form to protect and manage the environment wisely to realize sustainable regional development.   Lingkungan hidup yang baik dan sehat merupakan hak asasi setiap warganegara Indonesia sebagaimana diamanatkan dalam Pasal 28H UUD RI 1945. Pengelolaan lingkungan yang kurang bijaksana  turut memperparah penurunan kwalitas lingkungan hidup karena itu perlu dilakukan peningkatan perlindungan dan pengelolaan lingkungan hidup.  Perlindungan dan pengelolaan lingkungan yang berkelanjutan merupakan tanggungjawab pemerintah beserta masyarakat. Pertanggungjawaban pemerintah dalam melakukan perlindungan dan pengelolaan lingkungan hidup merupakan fungsi pelayanan public, untuk menjamin seluruh penduduk mendapatkan lingkungan yang baik dan sehat. Maka pemerintah dapat diminta pertanggungjawabannya, baik secara administrative, perdata maupun pidana mana kala pemerintah lalai melaksanakan kewajibannya yang tidak sesuai dengan aspirasi masyarakat. Penelitian ini dikualifikasikan sebagai penelitian hukum normatif dengan menerapkan beberapa jenis pendekatan yaitu, pendekatan perundang-undangan, pendekatan konseptual, pendekatan filsafat, pendekatan sejarah, pendekatan perbandingan, pendekatan kasus termasuk pula pendekatan budaya atas dasar kearifan masyarakat lokal. Oleh karena itu, penelitian ini bertujuan menemukan pemikiran filosofis dan teoritis berbasis kearifan lokal tentang hakikat pengintegrasian aspirasi masyarakat dalam penegakan Hukum Lingkungan baik secara hukum administratif, hukum perdata maupun hukum pidana. Hasil penelitian menunjukan bahwa perlindungan dan pengelolaan lingkungan hidup adalah upaya mengemban tanggungjawab sangat sulit sehingga mengakibatkan terjadinya penurunan kwalitas lingkungan hidup makin nyata.  Oleh karenanya maka penegakan hukum adalah melakukan penyempurnaan terhadap aturan yang berlaku melalui politik legislasi penormaan selanjutnya baru diikuti penegakan hukum administrasif.  Namun demikian penegakan lingkungan partisipatif dengan mengintegrasikan nilai-nilai yang berkembang di masyarakat dalam menjaga dan melestarikan lingkungan adalah suatu bentuk idial untuk melindungi dan melakukan pengelolaan lingkungan hidup secara bijaksana untuk mewujudkan pembangunan  daerah yang berkelanjutan.
