do with rent use forest system based on Rent Use Forest System Act (
Peraturan Menteri Kehutanan Nomor : P.43/ Menhut-II/ 2008 Tentang

equipment only based on environmental study and facibility study without
based on licensing mechanism seems like utilizing heavy equipment for forest
manufacture. The impact of using the heavy mining equipment to the land is
so damage, because it made the soil is not fertilizer again, although the
corporation that had the mining permittion has a responsibility to reclaim the
forest area after the mining activity over. The supervision for the mining
activity is done by Mining Instructor, which is for now it still doesn’t work.
The Mining Instructor do the supervision once every 6 months. It make a
opportunity for the corporation to manipulate the utilizing of heavy mining
