Abstract

Background : The activities of the Burangkeng landfill using the open dumping method will cause various impacts such as environmental, social, economic, and health effects on the residents living nearby. The issue examined in this study is the potential groundwater contamination that is still used by residents for daily needs. Objective : The aim of this research is to determine the groundwater quality index, social, economic, and health impacts, as well as control strategies for the potential groundwater contamination. Research Methods/ Implementation Methods : The method used is a mixed-method and SWOT analysis for the strategies formulation. Results : The results showed that the current groundwater quality index is in a polluted condition, and it cause social, economic, and health impacts for the residents. Conclusion/Lesson Learned : the strategies from the SWOT analysis results is about diversification with 4 strategies such as, the utilization and optimization of simple household-scale clean water treatment technology and the optimization of PAMSIMAS, transition of Burangkeng landfill system from open landfill to controlled landfill, revitalization of leachate treatment facilities at the Burangkeng landfill, and the establishment of regional regulations for the compensation.

Abstract

Background : Diarrhea remains a global public health problem with high morbidity and mortality rates. Environmental conditions such as poor sanitation infrastructure and hygiene practices have the potential to increase the risk of diarrhea. Objective : This study aims to analyze the relationship between environmental factors and the incidence of diarrhea in East Kalimantan Province based on big data from the 2023 Indonesian Health Survey (SKI). Research Methods/ Implementation Methods : This study employed a cross-sectional design using secondary data from 15,854 SKI respondents. Variables included gender, education, drinking water sources, water quality and treatment, storage containers, wastewater disposal, waste management, sanitation access, and hygiene practices. Data were analyzed using Chi-square and logistic regression to determine independent environmental factors influencing diarrhea incidence. Results : The prevalence of diarrhea was 2.1%. Bivariate analysis showed a significant association between the incidence of diarrhea and education (p=0.001), drinking water source (p=0.003), physical quality of drinking water (p=0.000), raw water source (p=0.012), waste management (p=0.002), and sanitation hygiene (p=0.000). In the models of multivariable logistic regression analysis, it was found that physical quality of drinking water (AOR=2.058; p<0.001), level of education (AOR=2.008; p<0.001), and waste management (AOR=1.276; p=0.032) were the main determinants of diarrhea incidence. Conclusion/Lesson Learned : Poor drinking water quality, low levels of education, and inadequate waste management increase the risk of diarrhea in East Kalimantan. Efforts to improve water quality, environmental health education, and household-based waste management need to be strengthened to reduce the incidence of diarrhea.
