Abstract

Background: Limestone mine reclamation by Limited Liability Company (LLC)/Perseroan Terbatas (PT) Semen Tonasa is carried out periodically to restore land conditions sustainably. The reclamation was carried out through revegetation using endemic plants, namely the bitter plant (Vitex colossus R.), which grows significantly in the southern part of Sulawesi. This study aims to determine the erodibility of the soil in limestone mine reclamation land planted with bitti plants. Methods: The method used is the survey method by determining the location of soil samples using the purposive sampling method based on the reclamation age planted with bitti plants in 2019, 2015 and 2010 and determining the erodibility value using the formula according to Wischmerier and Smith (1978). The parameters used included soil texture, structure, organic matter, permeability, pH, and unit weight. Findings: The results of this study indicate that the erodibility of the soil in the limestone mine reclamation land planted with bitti plants is classified as high due to the high dust content, which is influenced by the parent material. The results of this study indicate that the erodibility value of the land reclamation in 2019 was classified as moderately low to moderately high, the land reclamation in 2015 was classified as moderate to moderately high, and the land reclamation in 2010 was classified as moderate to high. Conclusion: The factor affecting the erodibility of the soil in the reclamation area is the M value (percentage of very fine silt and sand). Novelty/Originality of this Study: This study's novelty lies in examining soil erodibility changes over different reclamation ages in a limestone mine using endemic bitti plants. This research highlights the unique relationship between reclamation age and soil properties, contributing valuable insights into effective land reclamation practices in tropical karst environments.

Abstract

Background: Silo mentality has emerged as a significant obstacle in the bureaucratic reform process in Indonesia. This paper aims to investigate the underlying causes, adverse effects, and potential solutions to address silo mentality within the context of bureaucratic reform in government organizations.The study employs a qualitative approach, conducting a comprehensive review of relevant literature and analyzing the phenomenon of silo mentality in government organizations. Methods: The research draws upon various scholarly articles, government reports, and case studies to gain insights into the dynamics of silo mentality and its impact on bureaucratic reform efforts. Findings: The findings reveal that silo mentality stems from a range of factors, including leadership issues, lack of effective communication channels, and a focus on individual goals rather than organizational objectives. The presence of hierarchical structures and a lack of transparency in information sharing across different divisions contribute to the formation of silos. The impacts of silo mentality are far-reaching, resulting in reduced productivity, decreased employee morale, and diminished customer satisfaction. Conclusion: To overcome these challenges, the paper proposes several strategies. These include ensuring employee vision convergence, achieving common goals collectively, providing motivation and incentives, precise execution, and fostering collaboration among departments. The bureaucratic reform in Indonesia aims to establish a competent, professional, and integrity-driven bureaucracy that is free from corruption and serves the public effectively. However, the presence of a silo mentality hinders the realization of these goals by creating barriers to communication, collaboration, and innovation. Future research should focus on developing practical frameworks and tools to facilitate the implementation of the proposed strategies for breaking down silos and promoting a collaborative work environment within government organizations undergoing bureaucratic reform. Empirical studies examining the effectiveness of these strategies in real-world settings would provide valuable insights into their applicability and potential for success. Additionally, exploring the role of technology in enabling seamless communication and collaboration across departments could offer new avenues for addressing silo mentality in the digital age. Novelty/Originality of this Study: The novelty of the 'silo mentality' phenomenon within the context of bureaucratic reform in Indonesia, identifying its causes, impacts, and proposing strategies to overcome it in order to achieve effective governance.

Abstract

Background: Sungai Jangkok is one of those considered heavily polluted in West Nusa Tenggara/Nusa Tenggara Barat (NTB), Indonesia. The Biochemical Oxygen Demand (BOD) value has exceeded the Class II water quality standard, and according to the Family Biotic Index (FBI) value, the river falls under the category of heavy organic pollution. The research objective is to realize sustainable management of the Jangkok Watershed by its river functions by implementing pollution control strategies. Methods: Data was collected using questionnaires and interviews with the public and stakeholders (government and NGOs). Water quality data was obtained from DLHK NTB and DLH Mataram City, and sampling was carried out using the composite sample technique. The methods employed were STORET, QUAL2Kw, logistic regression, and SWOT. Findings: The research findings indicate that, in general, the Jangkok River in Mataram City falls into the heavily polluted category from 2015 to 2022, with an average STORET score of -79.25. Moreover, the pollution loads of BOD, COD, and TSS entering the river have exceeded the pollution-carrying capacity. The condition is influenced by several factors, including the less favorable perception of pollution status (67%) and the usefulness of the river (59%) by the community. Additionally, the persistent behavior of littering and defecating in the river (23%), inadequate preventive practices (59%), insufficient wastewater disposal facilities (40%), and improper waste management (58%) are contributing factors. Moreover, houses backing up to the river (59%) also play a role in the current condition. Some causes are the need for more synergy across administrative regions between stakeholders, the absence of law enforcement for the community, dependency on the government budget for work programs, and the lack of incentives. Conclusion: The conclusion of this research suggests that the most effective strategy for taking is to develop a program for reducing pollutant loads that is integrated across districts and cities, integrated across agencies with various levels of authority, integrated with the community, and by the river's actual conditions and the socioeconomic community. Novelty/Originality of this Study: This study provides a novel approach by integrating quantitative water quality modeling (QUAL2Kw) with community behavior analysis to develop a sustainable and comprehensive strategy for controlling river pollution in the Jangkok watershed, Mataram City.
