Tangerang - Based on the results of post-pollution laboratory tests, the Tangerang City Environmental Service (DLH), Banten, has confirmed that the quality of the Cisadane River water has met the quality standards,
"The results of the tests conducted show that the quality of the Cisadane River water has met the quality standards," said Head of the Tangerang City DLH Wawan Fauzi in Tangerang Tuesday, quoted from ANTARA.
Wawan said the acceleration of water quality recovery was the result of the synergy of various parties, namely the government, volunteers, and environmental community who also helped in handling in the field.
However, the sterilization and monitoring process continues to be carried out by the Tangerang City DLH until now. Although the Cisadane River has shown recovery since the second day after the incident.
As a form of continued supervision, the DLH together with the Ministry of Environment and Forestry carried out river diversion activities to ensure that there are no more sources of pollutants and to ensure that the water conditions remain stable.
"We will continue to monitor regularly. We want to ensure that water quality is maintained and there is no re-pollution," he said.
With the recovery of the quality of Cisadane River water, it is hoped that the activities of the community that depends on the river flow can return to normal, as well as strengthen the joint commitment in maintaining environmental sustainability.
"Residents who carry out activities on the Cisadane River can now carry out normally but still prioritize safety and health," he said.
It is known that the Minister of Environment (LH) Hanif Faisol Nurofiq has prepared a lawsuit against PT Biotek Saranatama as the owner of a pesticide storage warehouse that has polluted the Cisadane River with an area of approximately 22.5 kilometers covering the South Tangerang, Tangerang, and Tangerang Regency areas.
This step was taken as a form of the government's firm stance against environmental destroyers who must be fully responsible for recovery.
"For criminal cases, the police chief will follow up. Then from the legal side, we will take it as intended in Articles 87 and 90 of Law Number 32/2009," said Minister Hanif Faisol Nurofiq.
