Analysis of main facilities utilization level in Kuala Langsa Fish Landing Base, East Aceh, Aceh

Fishing ports are an important factor in supporting various capture fisheries activities in Aceh. One of the fishing ports in East Aceh is the Kuala Langsa Fish Landing Base (PPI). The problems in managing PPI Kuala Langsa are inadequate facilities and supporting infrastructure, therefore good port facility management is needed to be able to provide facilities and infrastructure more effectively and efficiently. This study aims to find out the actual condition of the fishing port dock and port pond facilities, and determine the utilization level of the fishing port dock and port pond facilities according to spatial and time in PPI Kuala Langsa. The research was conducted in August 2020 using survey methods and interviews with 18 fishermen. The actual conditions were then analyzed descriptively, whereas a level of used facilities was analyzed by using a formula from the Director-General of Capture Fisheries (1981), namely by using a percentage of the level of utilization. The results showed that the condition of the fishing port dock and port pond in PPI Kuala Langsa is good. The level of spatial utilization on the fishing port dock has crossed the limit (105%) and based on time was not optimal (45%). While the level utilization of the port pond facilities based on space and time level are still within optimal (100%)
