Description
Summary:This research aims to design a rainwater harvesting system as an effort to optimize water use in the karst hill area of Gunung Sewu, with a case study in Gunungkidul Regency, Special Region of Yogyakarta (D.I.Y.). This area often experiences water shortages due to karst properties which cause rainwater to quickly seep into the ground, making it difficult to utilize. In this research, an analysis of the hydrological and geological conditions of the area was carried out, as well as technical planning for effective water storage. The methodology used includes field surveys and data analysis. The results of this research show that a rainwater harvesting system can increase water availability significantly. This system provides a sustainable alternative water source, reduces dependence on underground water, and supports environmental conservation. The implementation of the results of this research can be applied in other karst areas with similar problems.
