| Summary: | The Citarum River, which has a high pollutant load, is used by the residents of
Ciwalengke Hamlet for daily activities. One of its uses is in public bath, wash, and
toilet activities. The communal sanitation facilities in Ciwalengke Hamlet, located
in RW 08 and RW 10, have been in operation for 20 years and are currently in a
state of disrepair and neglect. Poor sanitation conditions necessitate an analysis of
strategies to enhance the sustainability of the communal sanitation infrastructure
in Ciwalengke Hamlet, Majalaya District, Bandung Regency. This study aims to
identify the conditions and problems related to the sustainability of sanitation
facilities in Ciwalengke Hamlet. The research was conducted using secondary data
and primary data in the form of questionnaires, as well as descriptive analysis to
evaluate the existing conditions in Ciwalengke Hamlet and a Chi-Square
independence test to examine the influence of community willingness to provide
land and monthly contributions towards improving sanitation facilities in
Ciwalengke Hamlet. The AHP (Analytical Hierarchy Process) method was used to
select the appropriate wastewater treatment technology for the sanitation facilities
in Ciwalengke Hamlet. The selection criteria included removal efficiency, cost, ease
of operation and maintenance, and use of land. Three alternatives were considered:
conventional septic tanks, biofiltration, and constructed wetlands, with all three
alternatives having high efficiency, easy maintenance, and relatively low
operational and maintenance costs. The sustainability improvement of the
communal sanitation infrastructure in Ciwalengke Hamlet used SWOT analysis to
determine appropriate and suitable strategies. Based on the study results, the
existing condition of the sanitation facilities in Ciwalengke Hamlet still does not
meet the applicable standards and regulations. Most domestic wastewater is not
treated and is discharged directly into the river, while water use in sanitation
facilities came from river water. The community believes that the sanitation
facilities are very beneficial in their daily lives, and most are willing to contribute
to improving the sanitation facilities. However, only a few residents are willing to
provide land, while quite a few are willing to contribute monthly fees for the
operation and maintenance of sanitation facilities. Land and economic constraints
necessitate consideration of land use and cost factors in improving sanitation
facilities in Ciwalengke Hamlet. The wastewater treatment technology proposed in this study is biofiltration, based on the analysis results using the AHP method. The
proposed sustainability strategy in this study is the WO (Weakness-Opportunity)
strategy with key factors including the development of wastewater treatment
technology, the formation of a community to manage communal sanitation
infrastructures, and public education on sanitation. |
