The pollution of the Citarum River Watershed (DAS): Analysis of control policy implementation in Indonesia

The purpose of this study was to determine the implementation of pollution control policies in the Citarum Watershed in Bandung Regency, Indonesia. The not optimal control function causes environmental pollution in the Citarum River Basin to become the synthesis that is currently emerging. This research uses descriptive research with a qualitative approach. Data collection techniques used include observation techniques, interviews, and literature study. Data were analyzed using techniques (1) data reduction (2) data presentation and (3) drawing conclusions/verification. The results of the study reveal that the implementation of pollution control policies in the Citarum river basin in Bandung Regency Indonesia is not yet optimal, due to the incompleteness of several dimensions of policy implementation, namely: organizational dimensions, both structure, authority, main tasks and functions; dimensions of personnel resources, especially the competence of staff/implementers, information systems, and supporting facilities so that they are unable to achieve the targets set. What is new from this research is the findings of humanist, integrative and collaborative policies between local, provincial and national governments and other stakeholders
