Abstract

As a country rich in natural resources, Indonesia is undergoing a transformation from an agricultural to an industrial society. Such transformation has been marked by rapid urbanisation and the conversion of productive agricultural land to settlements and industries, Development of industries is of prime importanœ as Indonesia is experiencing a prolonged crisis and the increase for export of non oil commodities. Issues of Sustainable Development becomes crucial for the long sustenance of water resources functioning as one of the industrial resource bases. In conjunction with water resource management, the control of industrial effluent discharge plays a major role in sustaining the quantity & quality of Java's surface & groundwater resources. The increasing competition over decreasing water supply, the rapid growth of small & medium industries lacking adequate pollution control, and the spreading of haphazard effluent among new industries pose the need for a research on the adequacy & effectiveness of the framework for industrial wastewater management. The research aims to analyze the adequacy of institutional arrangements and the effectiveness of available instruments for the management of industrial effluent discharge. This analysis is to generate feasible options for improving present pollution control instruments, tools & organizational measures. The concept of sustainable development, the ecological modernization theory and the positive sum principle function as the underlying base for approaching issues of effluent pollution. Organizational & policy implementation theories and issues related to multiple resource users & multiple management entities provide the direction to enquire into necessary key attributes for improved institutional arrangements. Data collection methods employed include auditing network analysis, interviews, discussions & consultations, and review of ongoing government programs, Analysis of institutional framework for industrial effluent management shows: (l) inadequate preconditions for facilitating environmental care, (2) lack of adequacy within present institutional arrangements for inducing coordination, (3) lack of effectiveness of instruments and tools for effluent control among small & industries. Inadequate preconditions are attributed to the absence of a well-functioning financial market, high interest and inflation rate; slow technological development; lack of environmental awareness among the general public; and the predominant use of prescriptive measures over market instruments and communications. Constraints to adequate Institutional arrangements for promoting coordination & cooperation include inconsistent regulatory & economic instruments due to their sectoral nature, sectoral & vertical oriented to public administration, limited authority to the Iead coordinating agency BAPEDALDA to enforce regulations and control program funding, and inadequate condition to promote public participation in monitoring and enforcement. The lack of of presents tools & instruments for pollution control is atüibutcd the absence of instrument differentiation to the nature & size of different industries; lack of government effort to provide routine guidance and consultations on prevention measures; and limited collaboration with other actors (Industrial Associations, universities & NGOs) for ixnplementi.ngprograms and seeking donor agencies. Feasible options for improving present institutional framework encompass: (l) Necessary preconditions for facilitating corporate environmental care, (2) important institutional attributes for improving present institutional arrangements, and (3) tools & Instruments for increasing their effectiveness to control pollution. To facilitate corporate environmental care is to provide a framework in which industries can pursue their own goals; to emphasize the role of industries as a driving force while ensuring effective communication & implementing onented strategies; and to adapt measures to local conditions, Proposed measures for improving the adequacy of present institutional arrangements include ensuring policy consistency; providing the lead impact management agency adequate authority to enforce regulation and to control funding; establishing a management objective ; and providing the coordination committee adequate jurisdictions for horizontal & vertical coordination. To enhance present tools & instruments, it is necessary to differentiate regulatory & economic instruments for the different industries; reduce & provide clear legal directives over function and promote incentives & sanctions.
