Judul: An Alternative Policy in the Management of Kamali Coast as the Result of Reclamation in the Town of Bau-Bau, which Minimizes the Environmental Impact.
Abstrak: The reclamation of Kamali Coast in Bau-Bau was conducted in 2004. This has led to the loss of potential coastal biological resources, especially some of the marine bio-resources, damaged ecosystem of sea grass and coral reefs. It has also caused changes in the landscape (geomorphology) that have an impact on the changes in ocean currents, sedimentation patterns and a shallower estuary of Bau-Bau River. The study was conducted to find appropriate alternative policies, related to the ecosystem management efforts at Kamali Coast resulting from the reclamation in the Town of Bau-Bau, which minimized the environmental impact. It tried to analyze the existing social, economic, and environmental conditions before and after reclamation and used the analytical hierarchy process (AHP). The results showed that the social condition after reclamation is still quite good and well controlled. The economic condition has also contributed significantly to the regional revenue (PAD) of Bau-Bau. However, the environmental condition found some decreased water qualities, especially turbidity, TSS, dissolved oxygen, nitrate and phosphate. This has led to an increased sedimentation, thus a shallower estuary of Bau-Bau River. The alternative first policy obtained from the AHP analysis is a strict regulation for the dumping along the river. A tight regional regulation (Perda) is expected to enforce the companies that dispose waste in the form of sediment to create IPAL in order to minimize the environmental impact in this area.

Judul: Pengelolaan Lingkungan Pesisir di Kawasan Pengembangan Industri Kota Batam, Provinsi Kepulauan Riau
Abstrak: The strategic geographical location of Batam has geared this region be developed by the government to be an industrial area which has an important value for the national economic aspect of life. This development of industrial area in fact has created an impact to other growing sectors in the region. However, from another side, the existence of the industrial development has resulted degradation to the coastal and marine resources, such as marine pollution and coastal ecosystem destruction (mangrove, coral reef and sea-grasses) including the decrease in fisheries productivity. The environmental degradation in the coastal and marine environment of Batam City was estimated to be more severe which have been triggered by certain agencies that commercially having only depending on short term benefits without taking care of environmental negative impacts. Therefore a proper management is needed taking into account all related aspects in order to minimize the negative impacts towards the minimum limits on the industrial development of Batam City in the coastal and marine environment. The purpose of this study is to know the quality of the coastal and marine environment, identification of issues and available problems, and to set up strategic coastal and marine environmental management based on impact analysis of industrial activities and its development on the water quality in the coastal environment of Batam City. Based on data analysis it could be put forward that in general the condition of the coastal waters of Batam City are not in a favourable situation. This is due to the worst values of the marine water quality and also the threats to the existence of coastal ecosystem and fishery resources. Some profound activities which impacted the condition are, among others, discharge of industrial waste, land clearing through destruction of forest areas and hills, coastal reclamation by way of mangrove area conversion for other purposes. Therefore proper policy guidance for management is needed taking into account all related aspects that will be supported through active participation of all existed components. The integrated coastal environmental management is needed to be implemented in order to avoid and minimize negative impacts from the industrial activities and its development on the coastal and marine environment. Consequently some strategies are needed in supporting the management. The protection and control for marine pollution by the industrial activity have to be implemented in an integrated and well planned manner which will be supported by the existing rules and regulations, governmental policy and management agencies including qualified human resources, are the prime priorities of the strategy that should be conducted.

Judul: Pengujian Virus Newcastle Disease Gen VII Isolat Lapang Sebagai Virus Standar Pada Uji Tantang Vaksin
Abstrak: This study was conducted to determine the standard of Newcastle disease virus Gene VII field isolate as a virus challenge to vaccine test. A virus suspension that has previously been tested by HA test then titrated with EID50 using 30 Specific Pathogen Free (SPF) of 10 day old chicken embryonated eggs. In addition, chicken lethal dose50 (CLD50) test were used to determine the virus titer that could cause 50% death of the chicken population. The CLD50 test was used 25 day-old-chickens (DOC) divided into 5 groups. The virus was diluted from 10-1 to 10-8. The 104 to 10-8 dilution of NDV was infected to every group of chicken via eyedrop and intranasal with 0.1 ml/chicken dosage. Haemagglutination test showed that the allantoic fluid were contain high titers of NDV is 512 HAU. The infective NDV that had been titrated by EID50 test showed the virus titers is 109 EID50/0.1 ml or 1010 EID50/ml and the virus titers of CLD50 test e.i 106.48 CLD50/0.1 ml or 107.48 CLD50/ml. These results can be concluded that the NDV Gene VII field isolates were most appropriate to be used as a standard virus to vaccine test
