JAKARTA - Minister of Energy and Mineral Resources (ESDM) Arifin Tasrif held a Working Meeting with Commission VII DPR RI to discuss several agendas, one of which was regarding the rules for sea sand exorcise.

Deputy Chairman of Commission VII DPR RI Maman Abdurahman on this occasion reminded the Minister of Energy and Mineral Resources regarding potential disputes that would arise from the regulation contained in PP Number 26 of 2023 concerning Management of Sedimentation Results at Sea.

According to Maman, sea sand export activities contradict the mandate contained in Law (UU) Number 3 of 2020 concerning Mineral and Coal Mining (Minerba).

"My understanding must be that WIUP first enters the IUP. This PP has the potential to cause dispute and overlap rules," said Maman in a Working Meeting quoted on Wednesday, June 14. Maman said, with the issuance of a sand exploration activity permit resulting from sea sedimentation outside WIUP, it could be easily utilized by other parties. In fact, in Presidential Decree (Keppres) Number 33 of 2002 concerning Control and Control of Marine Sand Entrepreneurship, sea sand exports become commodities supervised by export trading procedures.

Maman also reminded the government, in this case the Minister of Energy and Mineral Resources, to be careful with risks in the future, such as being summoned by law enforcement officials regarding these regulations. "We never know which position you will be in in in the future, but the world until you are called APH is only because of the overlapping rules," continued Maman.

In the working meeting, the Minister of Energy and Mineral Resources explained that PP No.26/2023 tersbeut was a prechasa from the Ministry of Maritime Affairs and Fisheries (KKP).

"Furthermore, the policy and regulation of sea sand exports is the authority of the Ministry of Trade," he said.

Arifin said the Ministry of Energy and Mineral Resources also has the authority in terms of IUP sales of mineral sea sidementation results.

"In the event that business entities carry out sedimentation cleaning, finding minerals such as sea sand and will make commercial use of it, they must apply for an IUP for sales in accordance with statutory regulations," concluded Arifin.
