ABSTRACT

The title of this research is THE ANALYSIS ON POLICY OF ANNUAL FLOOD

DISASTER MANAGEMENT IN SINGKIL DISTRICT OF ACEH SINGKIL

REGENCY OF ACEH PROVINCE. This research intends to answer the problems: the

causal factors of disasters, obstacles encountered in flood disaster management, and policy

strategies flood disaster in Singkil District of Aceh Singkil Regency.

This study uses an exploratory research design with an inductive approach, the

informants consisted of: The Apparatus of District and Local Government, Community

Leaders and communities affected by flooding. The obtained data that processed and analyzed

using the stages of data reduction, data display and data verification.

For the purposes of data analysis, the author used the theory of Policy Analysis and

normative rules related to the object and the subject under study (The Law of Disaster

Management, along with the rules of the procedure).

Based on the results of data and analysis processing, obtained a description: 1. Flood

Disaster Relief Efforts in Singkil District has not been optimalized yet because they are still

incidental and focused at the stage of post- disaster and emergency response; 2 . There are

several major factors causing annual floods in Singkil District; 3. it is necessary to create

policies and prevention programs, whether they are prevention, intervention and recovery.

Referring to the data analysis, the authors suggest: 1. It is needed a strict policy in granting

permission for the conversion of forest land clearing; 2. It is needed a strict sanctions for

perpetrators of forest encroachment; 3. Optimization of coordination between the local

government with Muspida elements related encroachment prevention; 4. Optimization of

socialization to the community about the importance of participating, and environmental

conscious; 5. It is needed a range of policies in the form of further elaboration Qanun Act 24

of 2007; 6. Minimization of dependency on the government funds to boost preventive efforts

the pre-disaster phase.

I. INTRODUCTION

A. Background

Almost every rainy season flood hit

Indonesia. Based on the Value of losses and the

frequency of occurrence of floods seen a significant

increase. The flood disaster is influenced by natural

factors such as rainfall and above normal high tide

the sea water. Besides that, human factors also play

an important role as improper land use (houses in

the area along the river, deforestation, and so on),

the disposal of waste into the river, the construction

of houses in the flood plain area and so on.

Indonesia had 5,590 streams and 600 of

them potentially stem the flood, it becomes the

cause of the flood prone area of 1.4 million

hectares (Bappenas, 2013). Flooding in vulnerable

areas, basically due to three things. First, human

activities that cause spatial changes and impact on

natural changes. Second, natural disaster such as

high rainfall, rising sea levels, storms, and so on.

Third, environmental degradation such as loss of

vegetation cover in the catchment area of the soil,

siltation of rivers due to sedimentation, the

narrowing of the river channel and so on.

Many of the losses caused by floods, such

as the destruction of social and economic facilities

and services of public infrastructure, housing, and

even casualties. In addition, economic and

governmental activity can also be interrupted even

stopped. Some of these impacts should be

particular attention in the government's handling.

Aceh Province with several surrounding

district are also not immune from the floods that

49

come every year, especially Aceh Singkil. This

happens due to two major causes of flooding in this

area, namely the destruction of forest area and

condition of the geographical location of Capital

Singkil.

Note Forum for the Environment (Walhi)

Aceh stated there has been damage in forest areas

and Aceh Singkil Subulussalam during 2006

through 2010, of approximately 24 645 hectares. It

shows that the rate of forest destruction

(deforestation) in both areas is quite high. Most of

the forest areas in Aceh Singkil and Subulussalam

has been converted or was converted into palm oil

plantations. In fact palm plants absorb water so it is

difficult in case of high rainfall intensity, then

certainly the area closest to the watershed flooding

will occur.

Other causes, geographical conditions

Singkil District of Aceh Singkil located in the

lowlands between the estuary of two major rivers

that is Alas River (flow from Central Aceh District)

and River Laekobi (flow from the consortium

District, North Sumatra). Upstream of the second

river is centralized in the District Singkil Kilangan

River. This is the cause of several villages in the

district area hit by flood every year. In addition, the

disposal of waste from the processing of palm oil

by a Perseroan Terbatas (PT), the largest in the

region of Aceh Singkil flowing into the lowlands

and overwrite one village in the district of Singkil

also become a major cause of floods in the district

of Aceh Singkil.

The sinking city after Nias earthquake of

March 28, 2005 was also a disaster that will

exacerbate the damage and losses in the region.

When the floods came, the region sank deeper than

previous years and the flood-affected areas more

and more. It can be seen in the data records of the

National Disaster Management (BNPB) below.

Table 1.1 shows the flood disaster in 2012

only occurred in 6 (six) villages in the 3 (three)

districts, in 2013 the number of flood-affected

locations increased by 14 villages in 2 (two)

districts and victims affected are 6000 families

(KK). This data shows the government efforts to

address and reduce the impact of flooding is not

maximized and not even successfully.

The table above clarifies data including

disaster victims recorded by the National Disaster

Management Agency (BNPB) that the scope of

Aceh Singkil, Singkil sub-district is the worst hit

areas with 4,879 families (KK) or 16,773 souls

affected by the floods. Natural Disaster report also

explained that on 2 until 5 December in 2013 there

has been a flood that causes the houses flooded and

sinking and the resulting impaired community

activities. According to local residents that the

flood disaster in 2013 is the largest flood in the last

ten years.

View from the regulatory side, the

Regional Regulation / Qanun District that

specifically includes policies on disaster

management strategies, just about the formation of

BPBD Aceh Singkil, namely Qanun Aceh Singkil

District No. 4 of 2010 concerning the

Establishment of the Organization and Work

Procedure of the Regional Disaster Management

Agency. Special Qanun contains about

environmental preservation, sanctions set for that

pollute the environment and other regulations

related to mitigation and prevention efforts have

not been enacted, so it is an obstacle in the disaster

relief efforts in Aceh Singkil.

Another obstacle, people's participation as

one of the stakeholders in the response to the

floods, according to the level involvement at every

stage of activity, started from the preparation of the

draft policy, to implementation and evaluation of

activities is not maximized.

Regional Disaster Management Agency

(BPBD) in Singkil District, as the spearhead of the

local government agencies that specifically deal

with the disaster also suffered constraints in terms

of infrastructure as well as the tools and materials

51

in flood disaster prevention efforts, such as

communications equipment, heavy equipment,

transportation, evacuation equipment and others.

This is related to two main constraints BPBDs in

flood management, that is:

First, the limited funds, either from local

government (APBD) as well as from the central

government (APBN). In accordance with

Government Regulation No. 22 Year 2008 on

Funding and Management of Disaster Assistance,

BPBD get funding from three sources that is

APBD, APBN and peoples. Second, the

unpreparedness of the government management

system to handle flood, started from construction,

repair, improvement, operation, to maintenance.

Both of factors are the core issues that

must be addressed with the full maturity because it

involves aspects of political, social, cultural,

economic, and social life aspects of Singkil in areas

affected by the disaster.

B. Problem

1. Problem Identification In

Internship Location

Based on the background above, the

author identify problems as below:

a. Geographical location which is

between the two estuaries

b. Regulation, especially in local area is

very limited;

c. The budgeting of flood disaster

management is still depend on

National Income (APBN);

d. The Level of community

participation in supporting local

government effort in management

disaster is still lacking;

e. The lack of Total and types of

facilities and infrastructure in disaster

prevention action

For the focused Research, the

problems need to be restricted,

especially for Local Government

Policy (BPBD) in overcoming the

flood in the case of increasing

participation of community in flood

disaster handling.

Internship Location

Expected results from this internship is

to contribute ideas for Singkil regency

administration in order to flood disaster

management, especially in the District Singkil

which is greater than the area affected by the

floods that frequently occur in Aceh Singkil.

2. Defining the Concept

Object observed and

studied

a. Policy

52

Policy according to Dye (1981:1) in

Subarsono (2005: 2) is "any government option to

do or not do (public policy is whatever

Governments choose to do or not to do)".

Brian W. Further Hogwood and Lewis A.

Gunn in Solihin Abdul Wahab (2008: 18) classifies

the policy term of ten kinds:

1) Policy as a Label for a Field of

Activity

2) Policy as an Expression of

General Purpose or Desired State of

Affairs

3) Policy as Specific Proposals

4) Policy as Decision of

Government

5) Policy as a Formal Authorization

6) Policy as Program

7) Policy as Output

8) Policy as Outcome

9) Policy as Theory or Model

10) Policy as Process

Lubis (2007:5) explains that, "the policy

(policy) is a set of decisions taken by political

actors in order to select the destination and how to

achieve the goal".

It can be concluded from the various

definitions that policy is a set of programs, output,

outcome, process and decisions taken or not by the

government to achieve certain goals.

b. Definitions of Disaster

Law No. 24 of 2007 on Disaster

Management, in Chapter I, Article 1 asserts that

“Disaster is an event or series of events that

threaten and disrupt the lives and livelihoods

caused by natural and non-natural factor and

human factors that lead to the emergence of human

casualties, environmental damage, loss of property,

and psychological impact”.

According to the Asian Disaster

Reduction Center (2003), defines a disaster /

disaster as "a serious disruption of functioning of a

community or a society causing widespread human,

material, economic or environmental losses, which

exceed the ability of the affected community/

society to cope using its own resources ".

Furthermore, according to the Parker (1992),

“Disaster is an unusual occurrence caused by

natural or man-made, include in it is the impact of

technological error that triggered the response from

the public, communities, individuals and the

environment to provide a broad range of

enthusiasm”.

Opinions from various sources, it can be

concluded that the disaster is a disaster of

extraordinary events caused by natural or non-

natural that can disrupt and threaten the lives and

livelihoods.

c. Definitions of Flood

Flood is one of a common natural event

stream region due to the volume of the water sector

in water bodies or lakes that overflowed rivers and

closing of the Earth's surface area.

There is some understanding of the flood:

(1) Flooding is an area in a state where

inundated by water in such large numbers.

While the flood is a flood coming

suddenly caused by blockage of the river

as well as deforestation along the river so

damaging homes and lives.

(http://www.blitarkab.go.id)

(2) A flood is an event that occurs when the

flow of excess water to soak the land,

flooding Briefing EU defines a flood as a

temporary submergence by water on land

that is normally not submerged in water.

In the sense of "flowing water", the word

can also mean tidal influx. Flooding

caused by the volume of water in a body

of water such as a river or lake overflow

or break down the dam so that water out

of its natural limits.

(http://id.wikipedia.org)

(3) Flood is a common natural phenomenon

sector in the region drained by many

streams. Simply flooding can be defined

as the presence of water in a vast region

that covers the earth's surface area.

II. METHODS INTERNSHIP

A. Method of Data Collection

Activities Intern

Based on Regulation of IPDN Rector No.

05 Year 2013 on Guidelines for Writing and

Mechanisms Final Report and Final Exam Institute

of Public Administration, the method should be

used in this research is exploratory method with an

inductive approach.

According to Arikunto (2009: 101),

"Methods of data collection are the ways that can

53

be used by researchers. "How" refers to something

that is abstract, can not be realized in tangible

objects, but their use can only be displayed ".

Mardalis (2009: 25) states that exploratory

research is aimed to looking for new relationships

contained in a broad and complex problem. This

study also aimed to collect data as much as

possible.

Furthermore Mardalis (2009: 25) defines

exploratory study, "This study also aims to collect

data as much as possible. After analyzed the

expected results can be hypothesized for the next

study, and the study itself does not wear

exploratory hypothesis, because the complexity of

the data that will be examined are not likely to be

formulated or prepared bias hypothesis ".

Bungin (2010) argues about the inductive

theorizing that: "Inductive theorizing is a theory

that uses the data as a starting point to do research,

even in a format inductive theorizing does not

know at all, that is to say theory and theorizing is

not the important thing to do. Instead the data is

everything to start a research ".

Based on the definition and limitation of

exploration methods with the inductive approach, it

can be concluded that the research methods used to

collect data and find the facts of a knowledge based

on empirical facts that occur in the field is to

observe the direct object.

Collecting data in this study using the

method of field research (Field Research), which

is: the use of direct research in the field of subject /

object studied, using the techniques:

1. Interview

Interview by Nazir (2011:193) is "the

process of obtaining information for the purpose of

research by questioning face to face between the

questioner or by the interviewer or respondents

answering by using a tool called a local interview

(interview guide)".

Furthermore, according to Ridwan (2011:

74), understanding the interview: The interview is a

data collection method used to obtain direct

information directly from the source. This

interview is used when you want to know things

and respondents in more depth as well as the

number of respondents bit. There are several

factors that will affect the flow of information in

the interview, namely: the interviewer, the

respondent, and interview guidelines interview

situation.

Departing from several interviews over

the definition of research informants in this

internship activities consist of:

1) Head of the Regional Disaster

Management Agency (Singkil District

Secretary)

2) Head of Section of Emergency

Response Disaster Management

Agency Aceh Singkil (Part

Kesbangpol Civil Protection Office

and Linmas).

3) The reconstruction Section Head of

BPBD Aceh Singkil

4) Head of Public Works (dinas PU)

5) Head of Health Department (dinas

kesehatan)

6) Head of Social Affairs, Manpower

and Transmigration

7) Camat of Singkil Regency Aceh

Singkil

8) Head of Kampong Kilangan, Singkil

and Kampong Pasar Pulo Sarok

9) Logistics division and Disaster Relief

(Section Head of Social Service)

10) Singkil District residents who are in

flood disaster areas

11) Chairman of the SAR Aceh Singkil

2. Documentation

According Suharsimi to Arikunto (2010:274),

"the method of documentation is looking for data

about things or variables in the form of notes,

transcripts, books, newspapers, magazines,

inscriptions, notulenrapat, Lengger, agendas, and

so on".

Furthermore Fathoni (2006) states that "The

study documentation is the techniques of collecting

data which study about the records of the personal

data of the respondents, as is done by a

psychologist to examine the development of a

client through his personal records".

The documents will be collected to complete

the data in this internship activities are:

54

(1) Data of Standard Operating Procedure

(SOP) for managing disaster response.

(2) Data of Agencies participating in the

coordination of flood management.

(3) Data of facilities, facilities and

infrastructure in the flooding disaster

preparedness.

(4) Data of programs that have been

implemented in an effort to disaster

management from 2010 to 2013.

(5) Data number of dead, wounded and

victims of disease caused by flood.

(6) Data from the essential supplies to the

emergency preparedness phase is

completed.

3. Data Analysis Techniques

Data analysis technique is an important

part of the research method for this analysis is

useful in determining the research problem. Data

analysis is the process of formulating the data

which can be interpreted, to understand the

meaning of the data. Data obtained through the

approach of data collection techniques to be further

analyzed so as to have meaning and be able to

answer the problems that exist in the research.

Analysis of the data according to Bogdan

and Biklen (1982) in Moleong (2013: 248) is:

Efforts are being made by way of working with

data, organizing data, sorted them into units that

can be maintained, looking for and find patterns,

discovering what is important and what is learned,

and deciding what can be told to others. According

to Miles and Huberman (1984) in Sugiono (2012 :

246 ) activity in the data analysis are:

4. Data Reduction ( Reduction of Data )

The data obtained in the field is quite a lot,

so it is necessary to analyze the data through

reduction data. Summarizes data reduction means,

choose the basic things; focus when important

things, sought a theme and pattern. So the data that

has been summarized provide a clearer picture and

facilitate researchers to conduct further data

collection and look for it when needed.

5. Data Display ( Presentation of Data )

According Silalahi (2012:340), "the

presentation of the data is a set of structured

information that gives the possibility of drawing

conclusions and taking action”. In qualitative

research, data presentation can be done in the form

of brief descriptions, charts, relationship between

categories, flowchart and the like. In this case the

most commonly used is the narrative text.

6. Conclusion Drawing / Verification (

Conclusion / Verification )

Qualitative data analysis is drawing

conclusions and verification. In the beginning the

conclusion is not clear yet, but then increased to

something more detailed.

III. The Observed and Described Phenomena

A. Singkil Flood Condition

A Flood is an annual disaster that hit the

District of Singkil. The flood occurred because the

flow of water passed over the river so that overflow

and inundate surrounding areas. When the flood

occurred means surface runoff of rainwater is

greater than the capacity of the River, so that the

river no longer able to accommodate and drain rain

water. The magnitude of the excess water is the

rain water that flows out of the body into the river

and flooded the surrounding land.

Singkil flood occurs because the surface

flow is outrageously big, as a result of his ability in

the percolating water. Change of use is one of the

main causes of flooding. Many rivers that were

once proven to have never experienced a flood, but

currently these rivers began to be a source of

floods. Coupled with the change of the ground post

earthquake in Nias on March 28, 2005 caused the

depth of flooding is increasingly high.

Identification of the dry land conditions in

Watersheds (DAS) showed a change of land use

extremely they, are generally characterized by loss

of forest land and the increase of the land that is

used for a land settlement. As expressed by Mr.

Ihsan Pasaribu as head of section of society welfare

in the interviewing by the author on 17 February

2014 in Singkil District Office as follows: “flood

disaster is a disaster hits Aceh Singkil Regency

every year and centered in this Area (Singkil Sub-

district). The cause was when the high rainfall and

continuously occur in June month. River unable to

accommodate overflowing rain and resulted in a

flood. It was worst again with forest conversion

land into land settlement”.

The flood that occurred in Singkil Sub-

District is the annual flood that occurred in the

rainy season. The flooding also caused by

55

superficiality the Lae Singkil River, the river

cannot accommodate the rain water, the flood also

aggravated by rising tides which resulted in

increased water level high when the flood came.

The Lae Singkil Regency is one of the

rivers in the area which is at Singkil we may some

rivers in North Sumatra Province of Pakpak,

Central Aceh and Subulussalam. This river floods

due to the overflow of soaking 16 (six sixteenths)

viilage namely: Pulo Sarok, Pasar Singkil, Ujung,

Kota Simboling, Kilangan , Teluk Ambun, Rantau

Gedang, Teluk Rumbia, Takal Pasir, Selok Aceh,

Paya Kumbung, Pemuka, Suka Damai, Ujung

Bawang, Siti Ambia dan Suka Makmur. Flood

singkil the increases in December 2013, flood this

time worst throughout history singkil so people

mengistilahkannya with “singkil sink“. In addition,

at least 4,000 County residents still closeted at

Nagan Raya Genesis flood of December 2013.

According to data on Flood disaster

mitigation command post of Aceh Singkil

Regency, losses caused by the flood of Singkil

overall including 4 (Sub-Districts) Kuala Baru,

Singkil, Singkil Utara dan Gunung Meriah reached

Rp 43 Billion.
