<![CDATA[Allogenic recharge generally contributes to the formation of the main underground river system in a karst area. However, allogenic recharge have a higher susceptibility to contamination than autogenic recharge. This is because recharge from allogenic rivers enters the underground river system without undergoing filtration by soil or rock cavities. This paper discusses changes to ministerial regulations related to karst management that have led to the exclusion of allogenic river areas from the management of allogenic rivers, examines the urgency of managing allogenic rivers, and recommends future management of karst areas from the perspective of water resources management. The change in the Minister of Energy and Mineral Resources (ESDM) regulation regarding karst management has led to a simplification of the scope related to the main tasks and functions of the Ministry of ESDM. This should be followed by making changes to regulations that are higher than the ministerial level regulations so that the management objectives stated in the previous regulation can be covered and there is holistic management of the karst area.]]>
