摘要:Marine sand mining activities in Lontar Village have been started legally since 2003 and temporarily halted in 2013. The locals blamed the activities for severe environmental destruction in almost every corner of the village such as low productivity ofaquaculture, coastal erosion, and habitat loss. This paper has an objective to provide preliminary data and analyses for environmental impact assessment of marine sand mining in Serang (Lontar Village). Field investigations were carried out in June 2014 to collect primary data such as bathymetrical data and water quality parameters in the region to understand the environmental conditions after 10 years of marine sand mining activities as well as the characteristicsof local oceanography. Extensive interview with the locals were also conducted to collect information about the socio-economic conditions of the village. Field findings showed that LontarVillage have experienced critical environmental problems such as coastal erosion, high turbidiy and loss of marine lives. Moreover, we also found that the abandoned aquaculture fields have also been converted as sand mining quarries. Recommendations to reduce further environmental damage in Lontar Village are proposed considering both socio-economy and physical aspects.
