What Are the Key Requirements Under PERPRES 123/2024 on National Strategic Area Spatial Planning?
1.0 Regulatory Foundation
PERPRES 123/2024, enacted in 2024, establishes the spatial planning framework for Indonesia’s National Strategic Areas (Kawasan Strategis Nasional or KSN). These areas are prioritized due to their national significance for sovereignty, defense, economy, culture, and environment. A key focus is the Subak-Bali Landscape, a UNESCO World Heritage Site, requiring balanced preservation and socio-economic development.
Pasal 1: Definitions
Key terms from Pasal 1 include:
| No. | Term | Indonesian Term | Definition (Translated) | Article Reference |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| 1 | Space | Ruang | Encompasses land, sea, air, and subsurface as a unified territory for human activity. | Pasal 1(1) |
| 2 | Spatial Plan | Tata Ruang | The physical structure and spatial patterns of an area. | Pasal 1(2) |
| 8 | National Strategic Area | Kawasan Strategis Nasional | Prioritized zones critical to national interests, including cultural heritage sites. | Pasal 1(8) |
| 12 | Subak-Bali Landscape | Kawasan Lanskap Subak-Bali | A cultural heritage zone featuring the Subak irrigation system and surrounding ecosystems. | Pasal 1(12) |
2.0 Core Framework
The regulation mandates integrated infrastructure systems to support sustainable development in KSN. Key provisions include:
Pasal 22: Drinking Water Supply System (SPAM)
“SPAM sebagaimana dimaksud dalam Pasal 21 ayat (2) huruf a ditetapkan dalam rangka memenuhi kuantitas, kualitas, dan kontinuitas penyediaan air minum bagi penduduk dan kegiatan ekonomi…”
Analysis: SPAM must ensure water quantity, quality, and continuity for residents and economic activities in the Subak-Bali Landscape. Systems include water intake, treatment, and distribution networks (e.g., in Kecamatan Ubud, Gianyar).
Matrix 2.1: SPAM Components
| Component | Locations |
|--------------------|---------------------------------------------------------------------------|
| Unit Air Baku | Sourced from surface water, lakes, and reservoirs in designated sub-districts. |
| Unit Produksi | Treatment facilities in Kecamatan Ubud (Gianyar) and Kecamatan Baturiti (Tabanan). |
| Unit Distribusi | Pipelines in Kecamatan Payangan (Gianyar) and Kecamatan Marga (Tabanan). |
Pasal 23: Domestic Wastewater Management (SPALD)
“SPALD sebagaimana dimaksud dalam Pasal 21 ayat (2) huruf b ditetapkan dalam rangka pengurangan, pemanfaatan kembali, dan pengolahan air limbah…”
Analysis: SPALD requires centralized wastewater treatment systems (IPAL) in densely populated and tourism areas, such as IPAL Kecamatan Sukasada (Buleleng).
Matrix 2.2: SPALD Implementation
| System Type | Locations |
|-------------------|---------------------------------------------------------------------------|
| IPAL | Kecamatan Sukasada (Buleleng), Kecamatan Payangan (Gianyar), and Kecamatan Tabanan. |
3.0 Implementation Requirements
Pasal 51: Space Utilization Control
Arahan pengendalian pemanfaatan ruang includes:
1. Zonasi (zoning) for cultural heritage protection.
2. Incentives/Disincentives for compliance.
3. Sanctions for violations (e.g., unauthorized development).
Implementation Priorities:
| Component | Requirements |
|-------------------------|-------------------------------------------------------------------------------|
| Drainage Systems | Primary networks in Kecamatan Mengwi (Badung) and Kecamatan Kintamani (Bangli). |
| Sanitation Infrastructure | TPA (landfills) in Kecamatan Bangli and Gianyar; TPS (waste banks) in residential zones. |
4.0 Enforcement & Sanctions
Non-compliance with spatial plans may result in sanctions under existing laws (e.g., Law No. 26/2007 on Spatial Planning). Local governments must monitor development in KSN and enforce penalties for unauthorized activities.
5.0 Implications & Outlook
Stakeholder Impact:
- Local Communities: Must align agricultural and tourism activities with Subak preservation.
- Investors: Required to conduct KKPR (Space Utilization Compatibility Assessments) for projects in KSN.
- Government: Responsible for infrastructure coordination (e.g., integrating SPAM with water resource systems).
Key Compliance Takeaways:
1. All projects in KSN must adhere to zonasi guidelines.
2. Cultural heritage sites (e.g., Subak systems) are strictly protected.
3. Infrastructure development requires environmental and spatial compatibility assessments.
