Lakes have a significant economic function, namely as a source of clean
water which is very important for human needs such as providing drinking water,
irrigation, and industrial purposes. One of the lakes owned by Indonesia is Lake
Toba. Communities around Lake Toba use the Lake Toba area for agriculture,
tourism, and fisheries. Floating Net Cage (KJA) is one of the freshwater fish
farming systems that developed in the Lake Toba area, as an effort to increase
fisheries production by utilizing the potential of lake waters. The existence of KJA
in Lake Toba is able to improve the community's economy, so its use is increasing
from year to year. However, its management practices have a negative impact on
the environment, such as water pollution and sedimentation that can damage
habitat and biodiversity in Lake Toba. This research will examine the regulation
of KJA management on Lake Toba, criminal law enforcement against KJA
managers who pollute the environment on Lake Toba and solutions to KJA
management problems that pollute the Lake Toba environment.
This research is a normative legal research. Normative legal research or
doctrinal legal research is referred to as legal research, which is internal
research within the discipline of law. Normative legal research (legal research)
or what is commonly referred to as library research is a document study, namely
using legal material sources in the form of laws and regulations, court
decisions/decisions, contracts/agreements/contracts, legal theory, and opinions of
scholars. This research is descriptive in nature, namely research that is
explanatory in nature, and aims to obtain a complete description of the legal
situation in force in a certain place, or regarding existing juridical phenomena, or
a certain legal event that occurs in society.
Cultivation using floating net cages in Lake Toba produces residues of
pesticides and fertilizers, which is one of the causes of water pollution in the lake.
There are several legal umbrellas as legal forums that aim to protect and preserve
the Lake Toba area, starting from central to regional level regulations. However,
in practice in the field there are still frequent violations of existing regulations.
These violations caused environmental pollution of Lake Toba, mainly due to
aquaculture activities using floating net cage systems that were not in accordance
with the carrying capacity of Lake Toba waters. Law enforcement related to
floating net cage managers who pollute the environment in Lake Toba is still
weak. Environmental law enforcement can be divided into three main stages,
namely pre-emptive action (deterrence), preventive action (Prevention) and
repressive action (Enforcement) | en_US |
