The environmental damage caused by the industrial activities that produce waste
from hazardous materials is not going well managed and nor regulated.
Therefore, there is a need for supervision from the environmental government
service of Balikpapan, as well as other law enforcement in controlling an
operation that produces hazardous materials waste to bring in accordance with
appropriate standard procedures and rules of law in order to avoid the
environment pollution such as at Balikpapan city. This research aims to analyze
and examine the law enforcement against carbide residue waste management
violations and the role of environmental government services playiin supervising
hazardous materials waste management of carbide residue in Balikpapan. This
research is based on empirical legal research methods. The types of data used are
primary and secondary data. The results showed that law enforcement by the
environmental government services and Police Department in Balikpapan have
played a effective role both in the administrative law enforcement and criminal
law enforcement. However, it is not likely that there are some weakness such as
administration penalties, which are found to be less burdensome for the offenders
of B3 waste management abuses. Those who disobey should be given other
administrative penalties such as government compulsion, coagulation
environmental permits or the elimination of environmental permits and thus have
a chary effect.
