STRATEGI PENGELOLAAN LINGKUNGAN DI DANAU BUYAN KABUPATEN BULELENG

This research aimed to determine the potential of ecotourism that can be developed and to analyze visitor perceptions and to formulate environmental management strategies for development of ecotourism in TWA Danau Buyan. The method used in this research was descriptive qualitative with the techniques, namely observation, interviews and questionnaires. The result of this indicate that the potential tourist attractions in TWA Lake Buyan area already exist including jungle tracking, camping, cannoing, selfie spot, outbond locations that have paid attention to environmental issues by involving the community. The perceptions of visitors were based on the function of the area, management policies, tourism activities, facilities and infrastructure, and on the willingness to stay generally quite good. Based on the IE table, the management strategy matrix was ??in quadrant V (Five) or in the hold and maintain and survival phase. These strategies included: a) Developing the unique potential in TWA Lake Buyan both natural resource potentials such as biodiversity (flora and fauna), landscape beauty, and community socio-cultural potential that could be developed and packaged into ecotourism package, b) Increasing support from the local government and participation of local communities to optimize the quality improvement of ODTW TWA Danau Buyan, both facilities and infrastructure tourism, public facilities, human resources, and increasing the promotion of cultural and spiritual tourism to foreign tourist, c) Increasing supervision in field, increasing guidance and counseling on the benefits of tourist attraction to the community, as well as inviting the public and tourists to actively participated in preserving the forest and existing tourism objects (environmentally friendly tourism awareness activities), d) Build cooperation and synergy with competent stakeholders, including the Tourism Office, the KSDA unit, the Agriculture Office, Academics, Non-Governmental Organization, local community organizations, and open for opportunities to do collaboration with the surrounding community.

The Depositional Influence in Regard of Environment Carrying Capacity in Waters at Inner Ambon Bay to Floating Net Cage Propagate

Inner Ambon bay is a shallow and narrow waters that serve as the location of floating net aquaculture systems, but its water quality is threatened by depositional. This research is aimed at knowing depositional rate, its effect to carrying capacity of marine environment that indicated by water quality, and to formulate environmental management strategies. Depositional rate assessed by calculating the rate of suspension sediment discharge from river, potential erosion estimates with USLE method, satellite imagery analysis of year 2004 and 2012, rate of water flow analysis from outer Ambon bay to inner Ambon bay, as well as bathymetric data analysis of year 2008 and 2012. To determine the water quality, sampling and laboratory test as well as scoring, weighting and matching was did to parameters, that is turbidity, DO, pH, brightness, temperature, TSS, TDS, gross primer productivity and nett primer productivity, while its environmental management strategies studied by causal approach. The research finding showed that depositional rate from suspension sediment discharge calculation and unit convertion of Wae Heru river and Wae Tonahitu river is 1.7 cm/year, while the class of potential erosion at the Wae Heru and Wae Tonahitu river mouth, both of them is very light (<15 tons/hectare/year). Satellite imagery analysis showed that depositional rate at Wae Heru and Wae Tonahitu mouth river is 2445 square meters/year and 1459.625 square meters/year respectively. Through complementary data, that is the rate of water flow analysis obtained that rate of water flow to inner Ambon bay is 84 cm/s, whereas bathymetric analysis show a reduction in water depth is 13.9 cm/year. Results of water quality analysis indicates that the carrying capacity of waters are in the medium class, as well as refer to depositional rate and water quality, so environmental management strategy is focused on the management of upstream rivers, midstream rivers, downstream rivers, riparian and coastal area.

THE DRIVERS AND BARRIERS OF GREEN SUPPLY CHAIN MANAGEMENT IMPLEMENTATION: A REVIEW

Due to environmental degradation such as climate change, increased CO2 and GHG emission and all other problems threatening the world and its existence. Firms now are forced to think about integrating environmental thinking into their business operations in order to satisfy their stakeholders. Therefore, several organizations start developing environmental management strategies such as green practices overall their business operations, and since the supply chain concerns the product from its initial processing of raw material until the delivery to the customer there has been an emergency to integrate environmental thinking within this function. This paper aims to review the literature on the drivers and barriers influencing GSCM implementation. A total of 60 elements that englobe 28 drivers, and 32 barriers were identified from the selected literature where only the highest weightage factors are discussed. As results, Financial and cost related factors, Customers and Regulatory related factors seemed to behave simultaneously in both directions.

Back to the Wild: Polluted Site Remediation and Biosphere Resilience

ABSTRACTWorldwide efforts to depollute environments altered by human industrial activity have begun to produce an ever-increasing number of “clean” sites. “Clean” is defined by local regulatory processes and often responds to low compound concentrations or risk evaluations. Yet, these sites have been critically derailed from their historical biological activity by both the pollution event and the clean-up technology. This work explored the impact of contaminated (and remediated) sites on local microbial ecosystems. Different parcels of the same field site with the same relatively uniform microbial ecology were polluted and cleaned-up over the last 15 years. The statistical evaluation of the perturbation described changes to the local ecosystem that went back to the original baseline microbial composition although the pollution sources and the clean-up technologies affected the rate of return to the pre-disturbed condition. This rate reflected the intensity of the clean-up treatments. The role played by microbial communities on ecosystem maintenance and mitigation of pollution events lays the groundwork for predicting the microbial community responses to perturbations and the ability to reassert themselves. Predictions of ecosystem response to anthropogenic impacts could support decision-making on environmental management strategies for contaminated sites clean-up, depending on the ecosystem services desired to maintain or the risk posed to sensitive receptors.

Environmental Management Strategy to Control Air Germs in Tjitrowardojo District Hospital

Introduction: The presence of air germs in the hospital patient rooms is potentially to cause health problems for patients. This study aimed to identify andanalyze environmental factors associated with air germs, and formulate environmental management strategi to control air germs in the patient rooms. Methods: This study was an observational analytic survey, used a mixed method and a cross sectional design. Data collection was conducted through laboratory tests and interviews. Data was analysed by pearson correllation test to analyze environmental factors associated with air germs. The appropriate environmental management strategies was determined through SWOT analysis (Strength, Weakness, Opportunities, Threats). Results and Discussion: Several factors related to air germs were temperature (p = 0.032), lighting (p = 0.01) and the staff knowledge (p = 0.001). Humidity was not significantly related to air germs (p = 0.178), The results of SWOT analysis indicated that aggressive strategies (Strengths and Opportunities) were arranging internal hospital policies regarding to air quality management based on the Ministry of Health, utilizing educational qualifications and knowledge of room staff to support policy implementation, improving the performance of outsourcing personnel in cleaning services and maintaining hospitals infrastructure, increasing Inhouse Training activities. Conclusion: Environmental factors play an important role in the presence of air germs in the patient rooms so appropriate environmental management strategies are needed to control the presence of air germs.
