Enforcement of Laws for Utilisation of Natural Resources in the Coastal Area of Bima Bay, Indonesia

Summary/Abstract: The increasing use of natural resources and various development activities have given rise to various negative impacts, such as the threat of degradation of coastal resources, both directly and indirectly. Regulations regarding the authority to manage coastal areas and small islands still need to be integrated and systematic. This research aims to determine how law enforcement uses natural resources in coastal areas. In regulating the utilisation of natural resources, land in coastal areas can be categorised into two sides, namely, control and management. Control is regulated in Law No 5/1960 UUPA; management is regulated in Law No 1/2014 concerning managing coastal areas and small islands. Implementing the use of natural resources in the coastal area of Bima Bay, seen from the level of education and legal awareness of the people in a region, can influence their understanding of the importance of monitoring and utilising natural resources in coastal areas. The availability of facilities and infrastructure for monitoring and utilising natural resources in coastal areas varies depending on location, level of development and government policy. The implications of law enforcement, carried out by the marine monitoring UPT from the Maritime Affairs and Fisheries Service, this supervision collaborates with Polairut, along with the community who can participate in monitoring and managing the use of natural resources so that in the future it can be effective and beneficial for the interests of stakeholders in coastal areas.
