Abstract

The mining industry, especially in the crushing plant area, faces serious problems related to noise that can reach more than 85 dB(A). Noise exposure for 8 working hours is at risk of causing temporary or permanent hearing loss (NIHL), which is a common occupational disease found in crushing plant workers. The type of research used in this study is descriptive analytical with a cross-sectional approach. Data collection techniques were carried out by measuring noise levels in the Crushing Plant area and distributing questionnaires to obtain data on the hearing health of mining workers. The location of this study was at CV. Tekad Jaya. The results of the noise level study at CV. Tekad Jaya showed an alarming situation, where 50% of the 14 measurement points exceeded the threshold of 85 dB, with a peak of 96.86 dB at point Std 10. The health impacts were clearly visible with 46.2% of workers experiencing headaches and 61.5% having difficulty communicating, even though the majority had used PPE. The combination of distance and vegetation has proven effective in reducing noise up to 76 dBA at a distance of 95 meters. The metal plate enclosure system showed positive results, reducing noise levels to 83 dBA inside and 67 dBA outside the building. Recommended control strategies include a zoning system with double protection, worker rotation, and health monitoring for areas >85 dBA, and a preventive approach for zones <85 dBA.

Abstract

Public health reflects a complex and dynamic interaction between various determinants, where environmental conditions play a crucial role in influencing disease distribution patterns. The type of research used is qualitative through a descriptive approach. Data from this study were collected through medical records of patients visiting the Lubuk Alung Health Center during the period January to December 2024. The data collection process was carried out by health center officers by accessing medical records to document the type of disease and the number of cases based on their respective work areas. Furthermore, each case of disease was classified according to the type of disease and the patient's area of ​​residence. This study was conducted in the work area of ​​the Lubuk Alung Health Center, Padang Pariaman Regency, West Sumatra. The results of this study found that the distribution of the ten most common diseases was greatly influenced by local environmental conditions in seven villages, namely Air Tajun, Balah Hilir, Lubuk Alung, Pasir Lawas, Pangkalan Kasiak, Sei Abang, and Singguling. The disease with the highest number of cases was ARI (393 cases), followed by Diabetes Mellitus (355 cases), Hypertension (196 cases), Schizophrenia (168 cases), Dyspepsia (135 cases), Cephalgia (35 cases), Febris (56 cases), Skin Disease (45 cases), Heart Disease/HT (50 cases), and Other Diseases (51 cases). Balah Hilir and Pangkalan Kasiak villages showed the highest prevalence of diseases in general, with Balah Hilir recording the highest cases of ARI (97), Diabetes Mellitus (63), Dyspepsia (30), and Heart Disease/HT (11), while Pangkalan Kasiak dominated cases of Diabetes Mellitus (79), ARI (85), and Hypertension (65). Sei Abang also had high figures for ARI (67), Schizophrenia (17), and Skin Disease (12). In contrast, villages such as Pasir Lawas and Lubuk Alung had relatively lower cases of most diseases. This uneven distribution of disease indicates the strong influence of local environmental factors such as air quality, sanitation, lifestyle, and health infrastructure, so that specific area-based interventions are needed to improve overall public health.

Abstract

This study aims to assess the carrying capacity of the Anai River Basin (Watershed) in West Sumatra Province in response to increasing anthropogenic pressures and environmental changes. The research employed a spatial analysis approach utilizing remote sensing data and geographic information systems (GIS) to evaluate land cover conditions, water quality, and erosion levels. Carrying capacity analysis was conducted by calculating an environmental carrying capacity index, which included hydrological aspects, water quality, and the ecosystem's capacity to provide environmental services. The results indicate that the Anai River Basin is experiencing significant ecological pressure from land use changes, particularly the conversion of forests into agricultural land and settlements. Erosion rates in several sub-watersheds reached moderate to severe categories, with an average value of 15-25 tons/ha/year. River water quality demonstrated a decline in several parameters, especially increased turbidity levels and sediment content during the rainy season. The hydrological carrying capacity of the Anai watershed remains in a moderate category (index 0.65) but has shown a declining trend over the last five years. The findings indicate the necessity for implementing sustainable watershed management strategies. Management recommendations include forest conservation in upstream areas, the application of soil and water conservation techniques on agricultural land, the development of a regular water quality monitoring system, area zoning based on vulnerability levels, rehabilitation of 2,500 hectares of critical land, and the strengthening of watershed management institutions involving the active participation of local communities.

Abstract

The purpose of this research is to analyse the potential of water catchment areas and the impact of land cover change from 2010 to 2024. The research method used is quantitative research, with a descriptive approach. The analysis technique in this study uses the maximum likelihood analysis method, in analysing the classification of land cover in 2010 and 2024, and overlay analysis in analysing the potential of natural water catchment areas, land cover changes in 2010-2024, and the index of potential water catchment areas. Based on the results of the study, it can be concluded that the Batang Arau watershed has experienced a decrease in the area of potential water catchment areas, covering an area of 1057.80 hectares with a percentage of 5.94%, although it has increased the potential of water catchment areas covering an area of 238 hectares with a percentage of 1.34%, but the increase is not proportional to the decrease that has occurred. This decrease is due to land cover change from 2010-2024, with a reduction in forest area of 5.93%, wetland agriculture 2.49%, water bodies 0.02%, and grass 0.53%. This was accompanied by an increase in built-up areas of 7.94%, mixed gardens 0.73%, fields 0.10%, natural open land 0.002%, and shrubs 0.11%, So it can be concluded that the decrease in water catchment area is due to the reduction of forest area (natural vegetation), accompanied by an increase in built-up area

Abstract

This study aims to analyse the implementation of the Mining Safety Management System (SMKP) in the andesite quarry crushing area of PT. X, Subang Regency, West Java. The study uses a descriptive mixed methods approach that combines direct observation, structured interviews, and questionnaire surveys of workers in the crusher area using purposive sampling. The data were analysed using the Miles & Huberman model for qualitative data and descriptive statistics for quantitative data, with triangulation for validation of the results. The results showed that the implementation of SMKP at PT. X was still suboptimal. The overall criterion fulfilment rate reached 54.74% of the maximum total of 292 points, with significant variations between elements. The implementation element showed the best performance (54.31%), followed by organisation and personnel (54.55%), and monitoring and evaluation (60.42%). Conversely, three critical elements showed alarming conditions: documentation (33.33%), planning (37.93%), and management review (46.15%). This imbalance indicates a weak strategic planning system, procedural documentation, and continuous evaluation by top management. The study concluded that PT. X requires comprehensive and systematic improvements, prioritising documentation, safety programme planning, and management review to build the foundation of an effective mining safety management system in accordance with the regulations of the Ministry of Energy and Mineral Resources.

Abstract

Young coconut fibers, often found as waste, contain tannin and anthocyanin compounds that can produce various natural colors, so they can be used as organic dyes. The research method used was an experiment with a focus on testing silk thread dyeing using young coconut fiber extract dissolved in rice field water. This study aims to explore and develop the use of young coconut fibers as a source of environmentally friendly natural dyes. The results showed that young coconut fibers have the potential as organic dyes. Young coconut fiber extract with fermented rice field water solvents produced three color variations depending on the fixator used: brownish black (ferrous sulfate), gray (alum), and brown (lime). Structural tests using Scanning Electron Microscopy (SEM) proved that the dyeing process did not change the cross-sectional shape of the silk thread. In terms of tensile strength, yarn with alum fixation had the highest strength compared to native yarn, ferrous sulfate fixation, and lime fixation. Elongation tests showed the highest elasticity in yarn with alum fixation, followed by lime, ferrous sulfate, and native yarn. The color fastness test against washing at a temperature of 40°C showed a fairly good level of fastness for organic dyes from young coconut fiber

Abstract

The Batang Arau River in Padang City exhibits contrasting environmental conditions between its upstream and downstream segments. The upstream–midstream areas still maintain good water quality with positive carrying capacity, while the downstream segment has exceeded its natural assimilation limit due to increasing pollutant loads originating from domestic and community activities. This study aims to analyze water quality, calculate carrying capacity, and model the relationship between community behavior and the river’s assimilation capacity using a system dynamics approach. The modeling results indicate a continuous decline in carrying capacity driven by population growth and waste generation, illustrating that human behavior has a direct impact on the ecological balance of the river. Therefore, sustaining the ecological function of the Batang Arau River requires integrated pollution control policies, community-based waste management, and continuous environmental education to enhance public awareness and ensure the long-term sustainability of the river ecosystem.

Abstract

This study aims to analyze the effectiveness of the Environmental Care and Culture Movement in Schools (GPBLHS) program in developing environmental attitudes among junior high school students by comparing Adiwiyata and non-Adiwiyata schools in Padang City. This research employed a quantitative ex post facto approach with 120 students as research participants, selected through purposive sampling. Data were collected using a Likert-scale questionnaire and analyzed using the Mann-Whitney U-Test due to the non-normal distribution of the data. The results show a significant difference in students’ environmental attitudes between Adiwiyata and non-Adiwiyata schools, with a significant value of 0.000 (p < 0.05). Students in Adiwiyata schools demonstrated higher attitudes, indicated by a mean rank of 88.05, compared to 32.95 in non-Adiwiyata schools. Additionally, the percentage of environmental attitude indicators in Adiwiyata schools ranged from 71.5% to 77.3% (high category), while those in non-Adiwiyata schools ranged from 36.4% to 41.2% (low to moderate category). These findings indicate that the GPBLHS program is effective in cultivating environmental attitudes and environmentally responsible behavior among students.
