Oil Spill Handling Technique Based on Environmental Sensitivity Index Study in Pari Island, Kepulauan Seribu Regency, Province of DKI Jakarta Melisa Ta-bi Padanga (a), Johan Danu Prasetya (b), Dian Hudawan Santoso (c)
Oil spill is one of the pollution which has a serious impact on the water and land area. Marine pollution has an impact on changing the marine environment. The purpose of this study is: (1) analyzing intensity potentials of oil spills, (2) Analyzing the direction of the spread of oil spills, (3) Formulate environmental sensitivity to oil spills based on ESI, (4) Determine strategies for handling oil spills. The initial stage of the research is literature study and survey of observation locations. The research observation point is based on consideration of tentative maps. The ESI parameters (Vulnerability Index, Ecological Index and Social Index) that have been obtained are then calculated to obtain the sensitivity level of the research area. The magnitude of the sensitivity value of the coastal environment is known based on the results of interpretation, digitization, direct observation in the field and calculations. Natural factors that are more dominant influence on coastal conditions obtained from the results of the analysis are then described. The value of coastal ESI is used as the basis for determining direction and management techniques for handling oil spills in Pari Island, Kepulauan Seribu Regency.The results showed that the level of environmental sensitivity was divided into 2 categories. These two categories are sensitive levels (ESI II zones) and quite sensitive (ESI III zones). The intensity of the potential for an oil spill is quite high, supported by the presence of 200 vessel owned by residents which almost every day operates. The direction of the spread of the oil spill tends towards the northeast and northwest. Appropriate handling techniques use technical approaches, socio-economic approaches and institutional approaches.
