The research about illegal heap point of solid waste was conducted to identify the quantity of illegal solid waste heap point, to measure the volume and composition of solid waste along Segment 6 Ciliwung Riverbanks. That was done as a response to river pollution caused by solid waste. Calculations of the volume and compositions of solid waste was carried out for three days in five locations, namely riverbank in area of Manggarai (Location 1), Kebon Manggis (Location 2), Menteng (Location 3), Kwitang (Location 4), and Kebon Sirih (Location 5). The research shows that there is 22 illegal heap points of solid waste consisting of 93.38 m3 solid waste volume. The highest volume of the illegal heap point of solid waste was located in Kebon Manggis Area with 34.64 m3 and the lowest volume was located in Kebon Sirih Area with 1,53 m3. The average compositions of solid waste consisting of 45.56% organic waste and 54.44% non-organic waste with the highest percentage are the plastic waste 18.6% and the lowest percentage is rubber/leather waste 2.01%. The existence of the illegal heap point of solid waste in riverbank has the potential to decreasing water quality of Ciliwung River especially in Segment 6.
