IDEA carried out network coordination with journalists and civil society organizations as well as customer organizations of the Bantul Regency Regional Drinking Water Company (PDAM), Saturday (11\/01).<\/p>\n\n\n\n
This coordination was carried out to explore data and information on transparency and community participation in clean water management in Bantul Regency, as well as to absorb input for the preparation of a policy paper on accountable clean water management in Bantul Regency.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
The network coordination activity is part of the program activities 'Realizing Transparent, Accountable and Participatory Clean Water Governance in Bantul Regency' implemented by IDEA with the Bantul Regency Government.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Meigita, the project officer<\/em> of this program said that the quality of clean water in Bantul district has decreased from year to year and is categorized as bad. Almost 70% of water quality is categorized as not meeting the requirements. This is based on the results of a study by the Bantul District Health Office.<\/p>\n\n\n\n \"The water in Bantul Regency is contaminated with E-Coli bacteria and contains minerals such as iron (Fe) and manganese (Mn),\" said Meigita.<\/p>\n\n\n\n The results of the discussion of the community group and journalists in this coordination also stated that the water conditions in Bantul Regency experienced a decrease in discharge, while the need was increasing. In addition, the quality of water in Bantul Regency is decreasing, as evidenced by the occurrence of waste pollution, households, home industries, and factories, as well as the high chlorine content in PDAM water.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Efforts to fulfill clean water needs in Bantul, said Meigita, can be seen from the aspect of its management. By looking at these problems, proper management is needed to overcome clean water problems.<\/p>\n\n\n\n \"In Bantul, the clean water supply system for residents is carried out through the Non-Piped Network (BJP) and Piped Network (JP) systems. Residents' access to clean water with a non-piped system is carried out through SIPAS, dug wells or drilled wells, PAH and springs. Meanwhile, the piped network is managed by the Community, SPAMDes and PDAM,\" he said.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Based on data in the Bantul Regency Clean Water Provision Synergy document for 2019-2023 which has been ratified through Regent Regulation No. 79 of 2018, it is stated that in 2017, the population of Bantul who were served by clean water coverage only reached 86.64%. Of that percentage, the largest percentage was through Non-Piped Networks (BJP), which was 81.55%. Meanwhile, the clean water service for Piped Networks (JP) was only 14.55% with a total of 41,892 House Connections consisting of PDAM and Non-PDAM Piped Networks or Village Clean Water Management Systems. From these data, it can be concluded that the Bantul Regional Government still has homework to do in meeting 100% clean water coverage for residents in Bantul.<\/p>\n\n\n\n At the Regency level, the provision of clean water services is carried out by PDAM as one of the Regional-Owned Enterprises (BUMD) of Bantul Regency. In its implementation, PDAM Bantul receives capital participation from the Bantul Regional Revenue and Expenditure Budget (APBD) every year. The capital participation is provided through the Public Housing and Public Housing Service in the form of procurement of its pipe network.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Meanwhile, regarding Governance, participants in this coordination highlighted two water service providers, namely Pamsimas and PDAM. Water governance by Pamsimas was considered by coordination participants to be more participatory, transparent, accountable, and effective. This is because Pamsimas governance was initiated by residents and intended for residents, so the price is cheaper.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Meanwhile, water management by PDAM is carried out with a business mechanism, so that complaints submitted by residents, as users of PDAM services, often have no concrete follow-up to resolve them. Expensive prices and lack of transparency are also factors complained about by Bantul residents who use PDAM services.<\/p>\n\n\n\n This coordination forum also discussed recommendations that could be included in the policy paper to be prepared. Some of the recommendations include Pamsimas and PDAM Bantul Regency, as clean water service providers, must provide quality water for residents. In addition, both clean water providers must carry out environmental conservation, so that the environment and water availability in the Bantul Regency area are maintained.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Then another recommendation is that the government must start regulating spatial planning policies that pay attention tosustainability<\/em>, including providing law enforcement against parties that pollute the environment, and be more assertive and routine inmonitoring<\/em>every industry, both large industries and household industries, as well as other actors that produce waste.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Another important recommendation is related to the mechanism for submitting complaints to clean water service providers, especially PDAM. As a regional company that also receives regional budget, PDAM must facilitate access and service for citizen complaints. More importantly, PDAM must also start opening up to involving citizens in planning and evaluating water management.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Contributors: AH & AS<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n Editor: AH<\/strong><\/p>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" IDEA melaksanakan koordinasi jaringan dengan para Jurnalis dan organisasi masyarakat sipil serta organisasi warga pelanggan air Perusahaan Daerah Air Minum (PDAM) Kabupaten Bantul, Sabtu (11\/01). Koordinasi ini dilakukan untuk menggali data dan informasi tentang transparansi dan partisipasi masyarakat dalam tata kelola air bersih di Kabupaten Bantul, serta menyerap masukan untuk penyusunan kertas kebijakan (policy paper) tentang tata kelola air bersih yang akuntabel di Kabupaten Bantul. Kegiatan koordinasi jejaring tersebut merupakan bagian dari kegiatan program \u2018Mewujudkan Tata Kelola Air Bersih yang Transparan, Akuntabel dan Partisipatif di Kabupaten Bantul\u2019 yang dilaksanakan IDEA dengan Pemerintah Kabupaten Bantul. Meigita, project officer program ini mengatakan bahwa kualitas air bersih di kabupaten Bantul dari tahun ke tahun mengalami penurunan dan masuk dalam kategori buruk. Hampir 70% kualitas air dikategorikan tak memenuhi syarat. Hal ini berdasarkan hasil kajian dinas Kesehatan Kabupaten Bantul. \u201cAir di Kabupaten Bantul tercemar bakteri E-Coli dan mengandung mineral seperti zat besi (Fe) dan mangan (Mn),\u201d ujar Meigita. Hasil diskusi kelompok warga dan jurnalis dalam koordinasi ini juga menyebutkan bahwa Kondisi air di Kabupaten Bantul mengalami penurunan debit, sementara kebutuhan semakin tinggi. Selain itu, kualitas air di Kabupaten Bantul semakin menurun, terbukti dengan tercadinya pencemaran limbah, rumah tangga, industri rumah tangga, dan pabrik, serta tingginya kandungan kaporit pada air PDAM. Upaya pemenuhan kebutuhan air bersih di Bantul, kata Meigita, dapat dilihat dari aspek tata kelolanya. Dengan melihat persoalan tersebut maka dibutuhkan sebuah tata kelola yang tepat untuk mengatasi persoalan air bersih. \u201cDi Bantul, sistem penyediaan air bersih bagi warga dilakukan melalui sistem Bukan Jaringan Perpipaan (BJP) dan Jaringan Perpipaan (JP). Akses air bersih warga dengan sistem non perpipaan dilakukan melalui SIPAS, Sumur gali atau sumur bor, PAH dan mata air. Sedangkan untuk jaringan perpipaan dikelola oleh Komunitas, SPAMDes dan PDAM,\u201d ujarnya. Berdasarkan data dalam dokumen Sinergitas Penyediaan Air Bersih Kabupaten Bantul tahun 2019-2023 yang telah disahkan melalui Peraturan Bupati No. 79 tahun 2018, disebutkan bahwa pada tahun 2017, penduduk Bantul yang terlayani cakupan air bersih baru mencapai 86,64%. Dari prosentase tersebut presentase terbesar melalui Bukan Jaringan Perpipaan (BJP) yakni sebesar 81,55%. Sedangkan pelayanan air bersih Jaringan Perpipaan (JP) hanya sebesar 14,55% dengan jumlah Sambungan Rumah 41.892 terdiri dari Jaringan Perpipaan PDAM dan Non PDAM atau Sistem Pengelolaan Air Bersih Desa. Dari data tersebut dapat disimpulkan, bahwa Pemda Bantul masih memiliki tugas rumah dalam memenuhi 100% cakupan air bersih bagi warga di Bantul. Pada level Kabupaten, penyedia layanan air bersih dilakukan oleh PDAM sebagai salah satu Badan Usaha Milik Daerah (BUMD) Kabupaten Bantul. Dalam implementasinya, PDAM Bantul mendapatkan penyertaan modal yang berasal dari Anggaran Pendapatan dan Belanja Daerah (APBD) Bantul setiap tahunnya. Penyertaan modal tersebut diberikan melalui Dinas Perumahan Umum dan Perumahan Rakyat yang berupa pengadaan jaringan perpipaannya. Sementara terkait Tata kelola, peserta dalam koordinasi ini menyoroti dua penyedia jasa air, yaiu Pamsimas dan PDAM. Tata kelola air oleh Pamsimas dinilai peserta koordinasi lebih partisipatif, transparan, akuntabel, dan efektif. Hal tersebut dikarenakan tata kelola Pamsimas diinisiasi oleh warga dan diperuntukkan untuk warga, sehingga harganya yang lebih murah. Sedangkan, Tata kelola air oleh PDAM dilakukan dengan mekanisme bisnis, sehingga keluhan yang disampaikan oleh warga, sebagai pengguna jasa PDAM seringkali tidak ada tindak lanjut konkrit untuk mengatasinya. Harga yang mahal serta tidak adanya transparansi juga menjadi faktor yang dikeluhkan warga Bantul pengguna jasa PDAM. Forum koordinasi ini juga mendiskusikan terkait rekomendasi yang bisa dimasukkan dalam kertas kebijakan yang akan disusun. Beberapa rekomendasi tersebut antara lain Pamsimas dan PDAM Kabupaten Bantul, sebagai penyedia jasa air bersih, harus menyediakan air yang berkualitas untuk warga. Selain itu, kedua jasa penyedia air bersih ini harus melakukan konservasi lingkungan, agar lingkungan dan ketersediaan air di wilayah Kabupaten Bantul tetap terjaga. Kemudian rekomendasi lainnya ialah, pemerintah harus mulai meregulasi kebijakan tata ruang yang memperhatikan keberlanjutan (sustainability), termasuk memberikan penegakan hukum terhadap pihak yang mencemari lingkungan, serta lebih tegas dan rutin dalam melakukan pengawasan (monitoring) terhadap setiap industri, baik industri besar maupun insdustri rumah tangga, serta aktor lain yang menghasilkan limbah. Rekomendasi lain yang cukup penting ialah terkait mekanisme penyampaian keluhan kepada penyedia jasa air bersih, khususnya PDAM. Sebagai Perusahaan daerah yang juga mendapatkan anggaran daerah, PDAM harus mempermudah akses dan layanan keluhan warga. Lebih penting lagi, PDAM juga harus mulai membuka diri untuk mengikutsertakan warga dalam perencanaan hingga evaluasi tata kelola air.
