Abstract

Cimahi City is a developing industrial area, as seen from the diverse factories established in different industries. The presence of the factories in Cimahi City is very helpful to Cimahi City’s economic wheels. However, behind the positive impact there are also some negative impacts of the factory proliferation. Such negative impacts may occur if the development of industries does not take environmental interest into account. Currently, the rivers in Cimahi City have been polluted, one of its reasons being industrial activities, i.e., liquid B3 waste dumping to the rivers in Cimahi City. The roles of rivers in Cimahi City for the local people are still highly needed in various areas such as agriculture, mining, and people life needs. However, as a result of pollution, the rivers can no longer be utilized. Legal enforcement in environment is carried out by Environment Office which has authority to enforce law in environmental field. The problem dealt with in this mini-thesis concerning the provisions of the supervision of Cimahi City Environment Office according to Local Regulation of Cimahi City Number 15 of 2011 on Waste Water Dumping Control and the supervision of Cimahi City Environment Office on industrial activities in dumping liquid B3 waste to Cimeleber River in Melong Sub-district of Cimahi City. The writing of this mini-thesis used juridical normative and juridical-normative approaches by using secondary data of primary and secondary legal materials. The research specialization used was descriptive-analytical, that is, by describing comprehensively so as to get a comprehensive, systematical description on a juridical study of the supervision of Cimahi City Environment Office over industrial activities in duping liquid B3 waste to Cimeleber River in Melong Sub-district of Cimahi City. The research conclusion was that the provisions of the supervision of Cimahi City Environment Office according to Local Regulation of Cimahi City Number 15 of 2011 on Waste Water Dumping Control have been in conformity with the relevant legislations in attempt to prevent environmental pollution. However, supervision aspect has not been implemented well yet due to some factors, namely, at Environment Office, the lack of human resource and the lack of law enforcement against those who dump environment-polluting wastes
