Evaluasi Implementasi Peraturan Daerah Nomor 7 Tahun 2016 Tentang Pengelolaan Sampah Di Kecamatan Panca Rijang Kabupaten Sidenreng Rappang

Abstract

The issue of waste management in Panca Rijang District, Sidenreng Rappang Regency, is the main
focus of this study, considering the high volume of poorly managed waste and its negative impact on
public health and the environment. This study aims to evaluate the waste management policy, which
is expected to address these issues. The research method used is descriptive qualitative with
purposive sampling, involving informants from the local government, UPT Waste Management
employees, and the local community. Data were collected through observations, interviews, and
documentation, and analyzed using NVivo 12 software. The results of the study show that the waste
management policy in Panca Rijang District has had a positive impact on raising public awareness
about the importance of waste management. However, its implementation still faces several
challenges that hinder the effectiveness of the policy, such as limited facilities, low public
participation, and insufficient supervision. The policy evaluation based on indicators of effectiveness,
efficiency, adequacy, equity, responsiveness, and accuracy reveals that while the policy is fairly
effective, there are still disparities in service, especially in remote areas, and inadequate facilities. The
main obstacles identified in this study are the lack of waste management facilities, low public
awareness, and limited funding for better management. This study provides valuable contributions to
the local government in improving waste management, focusing on enhancing facilities, inter-agency
coordination, and public education to support the sustainability of more effective, efficient, and
equitable waste management policies in the future.
