Judul: Faktor Penyebab dan Upaya Pengendalian Kebakaran Hutan di Perhutani KPH Indramayu
Abstrak: Forest fire is one of the obstacle in forest which often occurred in Indonesia. Cause of forest fire consist two factors: natural and human factors. Efforts of forest fire control nowadays more emphasized with community involvement. The objective of this research was to examine the causes of forest fire also the efforts of forest fire in KPH Indramayu. This research was done by filling the questionnaire based on the results of the interview. The results of this research revealed that one of the factor which caused forest. Land clearing by the community with the burning system still contain risk which caused forest fire although the community use the controlled burning system, and it should be emphasized to all parties that cigarette is not the main cause of forest fire. Efforts of forest fire control in BKPH Sanca includes prevention, suppression, and extinguishing, but the implementation is not optimal yet.

Abstrak: Right now, the forests in Indonesia are having high degradation levels. Looking from the climate condition of Indonesia which has rain falls and high humidity levels then there are small chances that there would be forest burning caused by nature factor. It is presumed that about 99% of forest burn that happened was caused by human‟s doing and that 10% of it was a nature factor. Based of that, the attempt to preserve forest from burning down needs to be maximized, one of them is by forest burning control. With the construction system based on human role which is now being sed, so then the forest burning control would be focused on the human‟s approach. By that, it is necessary to fit an editorial about expanding of society role in attempt of forest burning control. The purpose from this scientific research is to file and list in all kinds expanding of human role on attempt of forest burning control in KPH Malang, either used for prevention and extinction, and also to analyze whether the attempt are effective or not. This scientific research is done at the RPH Oro Oro Ombo BKPH Pujon KPH Malang Perum Perhutani Unit II East Java for two months which was at April until May 2009. Data completion was gathered by interviews and studies about attempt of forest burning control by the human role. Respondent which was interviewed was the personals of RPH Oro Oro Ombo and 30 other respondents from the community around the forest and includes Forest Farmer Group of the RPH Oro Oro Ombo that was known by purposive sampling. Based on the scientific research it has been found that expanding of society role in attempt of prevention forest burning by using educational method includes filtration activity, socialization activity, and comprehensive. Expanding of society role in attempt of prevention forest burning by using awareness of law method which are known as warning board, written rules, comprehensive rules or direct forbidding. Expanding of society role in attempt of prevention forest burning by using technical method are as known as making green belt activities. Expanding of society role in attempt of extinction forest burning activities which are using ilaran path method, direct fire extinction method using soil, and direct fire extinction method using kepyok. Expanding of society role on attempt of forest burning control at RPH Oro Oro Ombo so far in relatively effective to decrease the frequency and area of the fired land.

Judul: Characterizations of low alloy steel sae 4422  plated with chromic acid (Cro3)
Abstrak: Characterizations of low alloy steel SAE 4422 plated with chromic acid (CrOrO3) was use Optical Microscopy (OM), Scanning Electron Microscopy (SEM), X-Ray Diffraction (XRD), RD),Energy Dispersive Analysis of X-Ray (EDAX), Hardness Test and Roughness Test. Microstructures analysis exhibits cracks and grain boundaries microcracks as a characteristics of chrome metal found at plating metal. Perlite and Ferrite as grains of steel found at base metal with grain boundaries around it. Phase analysis of plating metal appropriate to chrome metal with lattice constant (a) is 2.559 Å and phase analysis of base metal appropriate to iron ferrite with lattice constant (a) is 3.318 Å. Both plating and base metal have cubic system. Chemical analysis of plating metal at surface section exhibits that cracks area have highest value of carbon element compare with grains and grains boundaries area. While chemical analysis of base metal at cross section exhibits that perlite have highest value of carbon element compare with ferrite and grain boundaries. The hardness value of plating metal at surface section and cross section are 753 and 637 VHN. While, the hardness value of base metal and interface area at cross section are 205 and 373 VHN. The roughness value at measurement points of chrome surface for as received sample are 0.445 μm. Observation used Optical Microscopy and Scanning Electron Microscopy exhibits surface irregularities combine to form surface texture of plating metal at surface section.
