BEKASI - Civil Service Police Unit (Satpol PP) Bekasi Regency, West Java, sealed the waste management company PT Indonesia Waste Management in Kalijaya Village, West Cikarang District because it did not have a building permit.
Head of Bekasi Regency Satpol PP, Dodo Hendra Rosika, said that the action against unlicensed companies had been carried out since last year. The business owner has been warned repeatedly but still does not take care of the permit.
"This sealing is temporary until they meet the full licensing requirements. Since March 2021, they have been given a warning but still not taken care of, so we are taking action," he said in Cikarang, Antara, Thursday, March 17.
This action is part of a series of efforts to curb violations of regional regulations that are now being intensively carried out by the Bekasi Regency Satpol PP. In fact, strict action has been taken against a number of other companies that are known to be unlicensed.
In addition to taking action against companies, he said, similar efforts were made to control a number of billboards that did not pay taxes.
"So our efforts are to enforce local regulations, including those who are not licensed, do not pay taxes, and disrupt order. We plan to control illegal buildings around the Cibitung Underpass," he said.
Secretary of Bekasi Regency Satpol PP Deni Mulyadi said the company that was sealed was part of a large waste management industry in Bekasi Regency. The company functioned as a waste storage warehouse.
Based on community reports, he said, the company was suspected of not having a permit. After further investigation, it was found that the allegations were proven.
"Previously, we had called regarding this permit. We carried out several stages of action. Then the regent's letter was issued. Then we took action against this company, it was temporarily closed. We stopped its activities," he said.
Bekasi Regency Satpol PP investigator Windhy Mauli said the company had been examined twice. In the series of inspections, the entrepreneur was unable to show complete permits. They did not fulfill the required permits until they were temporarily closed.
"This temporary closure is based on the regent's order. Previously, we had BAP (investigation) twice, until we finally closed it," he said.
