Penegakan Hukum Terhadap Perusakan Lingkungan Sebagai Akibat Penambangan Batuan Granit Tanpa Izin di Bukit Naga Kumala Desa Rebo Kabupaten Bangka

Abstrak

This research examines the implementation of law enforcement against granite mining activities without permits (Illegal Mining/PETI) at Bukit Naga Kumala , Rebo Village, Bangka Regency, which have caused serious environmental damage. The method used is an empirical legal approach, utilizing primary data through interviews and field observations, as well as secondary data through literature review. The findings reveal that illegal mining activities are still taking place intensively, involving around 15 miners, producing an average of 60 m³ per week, and causing ecological damage such as changes in hill morphology, increased landslide risks, and the reduction of the hill’s ecological function as an environmental buffer. On the other hand, PETI serves as the main livelihood for the community, with an average monthly income of IDR 3,200,000–3,500,000, creating a high level of economic dependence. Obstacles to law enforcement include limited resources of law enforcement officers, low public legal awareness, weak inter-agency coordination, and alleged involvement of certain officers. This research concludes that the effectiveness of law enforcement can only be achieved through a comprehensive strategy that integrates repressive measures in the form of firm legal action, along with preventive efforts such as legal awareness campaigns, assistance in the licensing process, and the provision of alternative livelihoods. Therefore, the success of tackling PETI in Rebo Village is largely determined by effective institutional coordination, active community participation, and policies that are able to balance environmental sustainability, legal certainty, and socio-economic welfare.
