Administrative Authority in Environmental Pollution Control for Public Health Protection
Keywords:
Preventive Instruments, Environmental Pollution, Public Health, Legal Implementation, Law Enforcement, Environmental Licensing, AMDALAbstract
This research analyzes the effectiveness of preventive legal instruments in preventing environmental pollution that potentially harms public health. Using a qualitative literature study method with content analysis approach to legislation and legal literature, this research finds that normatively preventive instruments such as licensing, quality standards, AMDAL, supervision, and administrative sanctions have been comprehensively designed to protect public health. However, a wide implementation gap causes these instruments to lose their effectiveness. Weak human resource quality, conflicts of interest in government, poor inter-agency coordination, hampered public participation, weak sanction enforcement, budget constraints, corruption practices, chaotic spatial planning, and weak integration of health aspects are the main factors in the failure of the prevention system. Consequently, environmental pollution that harms public health continues to occur. This research implies the need for institutional capacity building and integration of health aspects in every preventive instrument. Future environmental law reform must focus on strengthening implementation, not merely perfecting norms.
