Abstract

The Sidoarjo local government has made efforts to reduce waste in the Jabon landfill. Based
on Local Regulation No. 6/2012 on Waste Management and Retribution for Waste/Cleaning Services,
it states that the local government is responsible for handling household waste and similar waste
through the process of sorting, collecting, transporting, processing and final processing of waste.
Waste management from households to TPS/TPST is the responsibility of waste management
institutions formed by urban villages or RT/RW. The provision of facilities and infrastructure at TPST
is one of the main factors that support the successful implementation of the TPST policy in accordance
with the guidelines in Permen PU Number 3 of 2013 concerning the Implementation of Waste
Facilities and Infrastructure in Handling Household Waste and Waste Similar to Household Waste.
This research aims to analyze the implementation of waste management policies and facilities and
infrastructure (Wonokupang Village Case Study). This research uses a qualitative descriptive method
by applying the G. Edward III theory which includes aspects of communication, resources, disposition,
and bureaucratic structure. Data collection techniques were conducted by interview, observation, and
recording. The data used in this study consisted of secondary and primary data. The results showed
that the Implementation of Waste Management Policies and Facilities and Infrastructure at TPST
Wonokupang Village has not run optimally. The communication that occurs is not optimal, human
resources are still limited, the budget resources obtained are still lacking so that it hampers the
availability of infrastructure and waste management, lack of consideration in decision making, also the
bureaucratic structure has a lack of implementation in the program due to the lack of community
involvement in the management process.

Introduction

The waste management system should require a landfill, which is the final disposal site for
waste. The success of good waste management can be seen from through Reuse, Reduce, and Recycle
(TPS-3R) facilities and waste banks, will not eliminate the presence of waste in the landfill. According
to Regional Regulation No. 6/2012 on Waste Management and Retribution for Waste/Cleaning
Services which aims to improve public health and environmental quality and utilize waste as a
resource. The Local Government seeks to handle household and similar waste through sorting,
collection, transportation, processing and final processing of waste. Waste management from
households to TPS/TPST is the responsibility of the waste management institution formed by the
village or RT/RW. At the TPST (Integrated Waste Disposal Site) in Wonokupang Village, Sidoarjo
Regency, the waste that has been collected there is the final process, where later the waste will not be
transported back to the Jabon Landfill (Final Disposal Site) because this is a strategy of the Sidoarjo
Regency Government to be able to optimize the function of more than 100 TPSTs that have been built
to reduce waste that has been overloaded in the Jabon Landfill. This is reinforced by the explanation of
the Head of the Sidoarjo Environment and Hygiene Office in JawaPos.com, who stated that a formula
is needed to reduce the waste sent to Jabon landfill from 600 tons per day to 400 tons. To achieve this
goal, a joint commitment between the district government and the local TPST manager is needed.
TPST functions as a place for reuse, recycling, sorting, and final processing of waste. TPST
must meet the technical requirements of a safe and environmentally friendly waste processing system
in accordance with the provisions of laws and regulations. The local government provides TPST in
accordance with the needs and spatial plan of the area. In addition, TPST must pay attention to
improving the maintenance of waste management tools and machinery, as well as residue handling
facilities, organic waste processing, and environmental pollution control. In addition, it is necessary to
pay attention to the characteristics of a good TPST, including TPST must be equipped with waste
processing facilities that meet the technical requirements of a safe and environmentally friendly waste
processing system in accordance with statutory provisions, TPST must pay attention to improving the
maintenance of waste management tools and machinery, TPST must pay attention to residue handling
facilities, organic waste processing, and environmental pollution control, TPST must be equipped with
waste collection, sorting, reuse, recycling, and final processing facilities, and TPST must pay attention
to reducing household waste by conducting independent waste management and meeting the specified
requirements. According to Regional Regulation No. 6/2012 on Waste Management and Retribution
for Solid Waste/Cleaning Services, the Regional Government must provide and facilitate TPST
according to the needs by forming a waste management team starting from the RT, RW,
Village/kelurahan and Sub-district levels.

Wonokupang Village Integrated Waste Disposal Site (TPST)

Waste at the Wonokupang Village TPST comes from household waste, the selection of which
is only distinguished between waste that still has economic selling value and wet or organic waste.
Waste that can be reused or has economic selling value in accordance with PERMEN PU Number 3 of
2013 concerning the Implementation of Waste Facilities and Infrastructure in Handling Household
Waste and Waste Similar to Household Waste in Article 15 includes cardboard paper, beverage bottles
and cans while wet (organic) waste includes waste derived from plants, animals and / or
microorganisms such as food waste and litter. Waste that has no economic value by TPST officers is
then piled up and burned if the waste has accumulated and it is not possible to burn it, then another
alternative is by means of Open Dumping (open system), which is waste management in the form of an
open basin of land and is considered dangerous because the waste is simply dumped in the landfill and
does not go through any process or soil cover. Every house in Wonokupang Village, has not carried
out waste sorting independently before the waste is transported by officers to the TPST, there are no
organic and inorganic sorting waste bin facilities. Waste sorting in this way is certainly not in
accordance with PERDA No. 6/2012 Article 8 which states that sorting as referred to in Article 7 letter
a is carried out in the form of grouping and separating waste according to the type, amount and/or
nature of waste by providing organic and inorganic waste bin facilities in every household, residential
area, commercial area, industrial area, special area, public facility, social facility, and other facilities.
In the Wonokupang Village Integrated Waste Disposal Site, the available infrastructure facilities are
still not optimal, in its management it only has one officer to collect waste from 4 RTs, namely RT 1,
2, 3 and 4 with two manual waste carts, but only one waste cart is operating, open land for landfilling
and burning waste, semi-open space to accommodate waste during the rainy season, and semi-open
space specifically for waste burning furnaces, there are no pollution control efforts, residue handling or
other supporting facilities, the waste burning furnace room is not used properly due to limited funds.

how the infrastructure facilities and management of the Wonokupang Village TPST in Sidoarjo
Regency are still lacking and need to be evaluated so that they can be improved or repaired by the
responsible manager.

Methods

Research on facilities, infrastructure, and waste management at the Wonokupang Village


TPST in Sidoarjo Regency uses a qualitative method with a descriptive approach. According to
Bogdan and Taylor (1992: 21), qualitative research is a research procedure that produces descriptive
data in the form of speech, writing, and behavior of the people observed. Qualitative researchers
emphasize the importance of values in research and seek answers to questions about how social
experiences arise and their meaning is obtained. Qualitative research involves non-mathematical data
analysis and produces findings through data collected by various methods, such as interviews,
observations, documentation or archives, and tests. Researchers focus on detailed, complete, and in-
depth descriptive notes to describe the actual situation and support data presentation. According to
Sutopo (2002:141), descriptive research is applied research of the type (1) evaluation; (2) policy; and
(3) development or action. The three types of research have different practical purposes. To understand
the outline of the three, the differences in objectives and stages of implementation are briefly explained
below.

Descriptive qualitative aims to describe and illustrate existing phenomena, both natural and
man-made, by focusing on the characteristics, properties and interrelationships between activities.
Descriptive research does not provide recommendations on how to handle or modify the variables
studied, but only describes existing conditions. The only intervention of the research itself, which is
carried out through observation, interviews, and recording (Nana Syaodih Sukmadinata (2011: 73).
The descriptive qualitative method was chosen because this research problem is not yet clear or there
is no adequate information. Therefore, researchers made direct observations in the field. Data
collection techniques were carried out by direct observation and interviews at TPST Wonokupang
Village, Sidoarjo Regency. The data obtained came from secondary data sources and primary data.
Data was obtained from interviews and observations using snowball sampling techniques. According
to Subayo, the snowball sampling technique is a sampling technique with the help of key informants to
help or can develop depending on the guidance given by the researcher so that the researcher only
provides criteria to be sampled. As well as secondary data obtained from journal literature, online
media news, and regulations.

Research Focus

In this study, researchers will focus on issues related to the management and infrastructure
facilities of TPST Wonokupang Village based on the theory put forward by Edward III. In his theory, a
policy implementation can be analyzed with several techniques which are divided into four, including
communication, resources, disposition, and bureaucratic structure. In Wonokupang Village, waste
management and infrastructure facilities have not met the requirements stipulated in PERDA No.
6/2012 Article 8. This article states that waste segregation, as referred to in Article 7 letter a, is carried
out by classifying and separating waste according to its type, amount and/or nature, and providing
organic and inorganic waste bin facilities in every household, residential area, commercial area,
industrial area, special area, public facility, social facility, and other facilities.

Results and Discussion

Based on the results of field observations in Wonokupang Village that have been carried out, the
problems found are related to TPST management and limited infrastructure facilities in accordance
with Sidoarjo Regency Regional Regulation Number 6 of 2017 where TPS / TPST providers must
meet the technical requirements of a safe and environmentally friendly waste management system in
accordance with statutory provisions. Through the theory of G. Edward III, it is suggested that policy
implementation can be analyzed through four dimensions, namely Communication, Resources,
Disposition, and Bureaucratic Structure. In the context of the Village Government related to the
Integrated Waste Disposal Site (TPST) program, the following is an explanation of the application of
these four techniques:

1. Communication

Communication is an important indicator in policy implementation, according to Edward III in


Widodo (2010: 97), communication is defined as "the process of conveying communicator information
to communicators". Policy implementation becomes effective when those responsible understand what
should be done in implementing and making decisions. Communication is a benchmark for the extent
to which policies in the form of regulations have been conveyed clearly with the same interpretation,
and can be implemented consistently by the implementing apparatus. Edward III emphasizes that
public policy will be successfully implemented if there is effective communication between
policy/program implementers and stakeholders or the general public. Three important aspects that
must be considered to measure the success of a policy implementation are Transmission, Clarity, and
Consistency.

a. Transmission

According to G. Edward III Theory, miscommunication often occurs in the distribution of


information because information goes through several levels of bureaucracy which can cause
misperceptions or understanding (Nurani, 2009). From the results of interviews conducted by
researchers, the village government's understanding of waste management and infrastructure facilities
at the Wonokupang Village TPST is in the form of processing waste by collecting waste which is then
piled up at the TPST and then burned without any sorting first. However, if the waste in the TPST is
too piled up, the Village Government and the community make a decision from the results of
deliberations to carry out open dumping. Facilities and Infrastructure at the Wonokupang Village
TPST include TPST land, waste transportation mobility (Gerobak), and waste burning stoves which
are currently not in use, due to limited costs, so the final processing is by burning the waste. In
addition, the understanding of waste transportation officers related to waste management is in the form
of collecting waste and then stacking it in the TPST and then burning it, but the waste officers sort out
their own waste which has a selling value and the proceeds from the sale of the waste belong to the
waste officers. While the community's understanding of waste management, some communities or
residents sort their own waste before being transported by the garbage workers, but there are also
communities who directly dispose of waste without sorting it first.
Based on the theory put forward by Edward III that the process of delivering information from
policy organizers must be communicated properly, clearly, and consistently to policy recipients, so
that policy recipients can receive this information clearly and wisely and not misunderstand. So that
from the description above it can be seen that communication between the Village Government,
Inovant Volume X, Number X,
X
Page X P-
ISSN. ............... E-ISSN ............

Waste officers, and the community are not clear, because there are still people who do not understand
how good waste management is. And also from the Village Government has not provided
understanding efforts in the form of socialization / counseling to the community and also waste
collection officers regarding how a good waste management system based on Sidoarjo Regency
Regional Regulation Number 6 of 2017 concerning Waste Management and Retribution for Waste /
Cleaning Services in Article 7 confirms that local / village governments are required to manage
household and similar waste through stages such as sorting, collection, transportation, processing, and
final processing of waste.

b. Clarity

According to Edward III's theory, the clarity aspect of communication aims to make the policies
conveyed to implementers (Wonokupang Village government), target groups (community) and other
interested parties (TPST officers) clear, so that among them understand the intent, purpose, objectives,
and substance of the policy. This allows each party to know the preparations and actions needed to
implement the policy effectively and efficiently. Although the correct waste management policy has
been regulated in Sidoarjo Regency Regional Regulation No. 6/2012 on Waste Management and
Retribution for Waste/Cleaning Services, in practice this policy is not clearly understood by village
government policy makers, TPST officers/managers, and the Wonokupang Village community. This
happens because of the lack of clarity provided, comprehensive socialization regarding this has not
been conveyed to all interested parties, effective socialization can help increase clarity in the
implementation of management policy implementation and infrastructure facilities, seen from the
results of research interviews show that the understanding of the community and TPST officers is
shown by the lack of knowledge about waste management in accordance with the regulations, causing
the non-optimality of the implementation of waste management in Wonokupang Village, Sidoarjo
Regency, precisely in the sorting, collection, transportation, processing and final processing of waste,
especially in its management at TPST.

c. Consistency

According to George C. Edward III in Widodo (2010: 97) states that in the process of conveying
information between communicators and communicants it must be conveyed clearly and easily
understood and avoid misconceptions from policy implementers that are carried out continuously
(Takaluhude et al., 2022). Policy implementation will be successful if there is a consistent and
sustainable approach. Consistency in this issue is the integration between the village government,
waste collection officers and the community. The consistency of the village government in
implementing the policy is balanced with the consistency of the community in sorting and disposing of
waste and the consistency of paying fees that have been determined in accordance with Regent
Regulation Number 71 of 2019 concerning the reduction of household waste and similar household
waste. Consistency in policy implementation includes waste management procedures for the
community and officers that aim to provide clear direction, present sustainable solutions and active
community involvement. In Wonokupang Village, the implementation is not optimal, this is evident in
the results of interviews with the community for waste management procedures in accordance with
applicable regulations, so there is a need for socialization to the community so that they can
understand waste management procedures.

four RTs every day in rotation consistently and conducting waste management by burning waste that is
not in accordance with applicable regulations, namely Regent Regulation No. IX.
1 Year 2023 concerning the position, organizational structure, duties and functions and work
procedures of the Sidoarjo Regency Environment and Hygiene Office. Waste that has been collected
will be burned on open land and if there is an excessive accumulation of waste, open dumping will be
carried out.
This is not in accordance with the policies issued by the local government because it can cause
long-term environmental damage. Community consistency can be seen in the understanding and
support for the policies implemented, whether the community consistently supports and complies with
the policies that have been set. The form of consistency carried out by Wonokupang villagers in
supporting policy implementation is the payment of dues for each resident. Every month, residents pay
a nominal fee of Rp.10,000 which will be distributed to the salaries of garbage collectors, death
contributions and street lighting. Dues will be distributed partly to garbage collectors every month.
Based on Edward III's theory related to the consistency of the TPST policy in Wonokupang Village,
part of it has gone well in the payment of dues which runs consistently every month, but there is a need
for consistency in the exposure of policy implementation to the community to better understand waste
management policies by conducting socialization.

2. Resources

Resources will be ineffective in policy implementation if policy implementers lack the necessary
resources. Crucial resources include an adequate number of staff with appropriate skills, adequate
facilities, and budget constraints that may limit the facilities and quality obtained. Relevant
information on how to implement the policy and the compliance of other parties involved is also an
important part of the resources. According to Edward III, indicators of successful policy
implementation in terms of resources include human resources, budget resources, and facility
resources.

a. Human Resources

According to Edward III in his book Implementing Public Policy, human resources affect the
success of policy implementation. Human resource indicators are divided into several, including staff,
information, authority and facilities (George C. Edwards III, 1980). The failure of policy
implementation from four human resource indicators is the number of staff who are inadequate and do
not have competence in their fields, the receipt of information related to policy implementation and the
implementation of orders and information on the compliance of implementers with established
regulations, the link between adequate facilities and the authority to carry out policies. The TPST
Waste Processing Site Manager has a very important role in running the facility with efficiency and
sustainability. The main tasks of the TPST manager include supervising and managing the entire waste
disposal process, from receiving to final processing.

table 1: data on the number of TPST management staff

Based on the table above, there is only one person who manages the TPST and one waste
collection officer, while in Wonokupang Village there are 13 and only 4 RTs that participate in the
TPST program. This is due to the lack of staff in policy implementation so that the inadequate number
of staff hampers the equitable distribution of policy implementation. In addition to the limited
management staff, there are inadequate facilities such as only the availability of carts for waste
collection, which is inadequate to cover the implementation of the TPST policy in 13 RTs in
Wonokupang Village. The need for village government authority in evaluating human resources aims
to support the success of policy implementation such as additional staff and improved facilities. Based
on Edward III Theory, Human Resources in Wonokupang Village are not optimal, because in terms of
waste collection officers are still lacking and overloaded with work and require additional waste
collection officers in order to reach all Wonokupang Village communities.

b. Budget Resources

According to George C. Edward III in Widodo (2010: 100-101), the conclusion of his study is
"Budget limitations and resistance from the population can hinder the acquisition of appropriate
facilities. These conditions can limit the quality of services that implementers can provide to the
community" (Salsabilla & Rosdiana, 2023). Existing budget limitations can affect the quality of
services that should be provided to the community. Therefore, effective management of budget
resources is essential in optimizing the success of public policy implementation. From the research that
has been conducted, the budget system for waste management in Wonokupang Village is considered
sufficient. We know this from the net salary earned by waste officers worth Rp. 1,200,000/month
which is sourced from contributions made by local residents. However, not all neighborhoods in the
village have their garbage picked up by the waste officers. The garbage collectors only take 4 RTs out
of 13, namely RT 1, RT 2, RT 3, and RT 4. Each RT pays a monthly fee of 10,000 for each house.
These contributions are also used for street lighting, cleaning, and death contributions. The following
is the data on the number of families per RT in Wonokupang Village:

table 2: data on houses in each neighborhood

Then the results of these contributions are accumulated with a monthly calculation of Rp.
300,000 / RT for the salary of the waste management officer so that a month can get Rp. 1,200,000. In
addition, waste management officers also get an additional Rp. 200,000 from the local government
which is commonly called THR (Tunjangan Hari Raya) and is issued twice a year on holidays and at
the end of the year. However, the facilities and infrastructure used by waste management officers are
still lacking, such as wheelbarrows used to collect waste so that not all RTs can be picked up by waste
management officers. Based on Edward III Theory, the budget resources that occur in Wonokupang
Village are not appropriate, because in terms of facilities and infrastructure provided by the village
government to officers are still lacking.

c. Facility Resources

Edward III in Widodo (2010: 102) states that facility/equipment resources are facilities and
infrastructure used for operationalizing policy implementation which include buildings, land, and other
facilities and infrastructure (Takaluhude et al., 2022). From the results of interviews that have been
conducted, the Wonokupang Village TPST consists of open land and closed land which is used for
collecting waste from all residents of Wonokupang Village. Other supporting facilities include waste
transportation carts, which are the only mobility for transporting waste in the four RTs in Wonokupang
Village. There is also a combustion furnace facility, but this equipment can no longer be used due to
one of the factors, namely limited costs, so the local village government chooses to burn waste openly.
Although this is done openly, the Temporary Waste Disposal Site (TPST) is quite far from residential
areas. The village government also provides facilities in the form of trash bins at each resident's house.
The existence of these supporting facilities can support the successful implementation of waste
management policies at the Wonokupang Village TPST. However, the facilities available at the
Wonokupang Village TPST have not yet fulfilled the implementation of the facilities and
infrastructure policy in accordance with Government Regulation of Public Works Number 3 of 2013
concerning the Implementation of Waste Infrastructure and Facilities in Handling Household Waste
and Waste Similar to Household Waste (Regulation of the Minister of Public Works Number
3/PRT/M/ 2013, 2013). So that efforts are needed to fulfill the facilities and infrastructure for the
Wonokupang Village TPST so that implementation can run smoothly.

3. Disposition
According to Edward III in his book Implementing Public Policy, Disposition is the third
important factor in policy implementation (III, 2010). According to him, in order for an
implementation to run smoothly, effectively and efficiently, policy implementers not only know what
they have to do and have the ability to carry it out, but they must also have the desire to implement a
policy. Edward III highlights the role of leadership in the context of decision-making and policy
implementation. Disposition refers to the attitudes, values and views of a leader that can influence
decisions and actions.
Several factors that influence disposition according to Edward III in Augustine (2006: 159-
160), namely:

a. Bureaucratic Appointments
According to George C. Edward III, bureaucratic appointments are important in public policy.
This refers to the appointment and appointment of staff in the bureaucracy who are in accordance with
their abilities, qualifications, and competent in carrying out their duties and responsibilities. Based on
the observations that have been made in Wonokupang Village, excessive waste handling is important
to consider. In response to time constraints and the use of energy resources, especially in relation to
burning waste using stoves, leaders at the TPST level may face situations that require strategic
decision-making. We learned that a positive disposition might encourage leaders to seek innovative
and sustainable solutions, such as the development of more efficient waste management technologies
or methods. On the other hand, a negative disposition might make leaders tend to seek simpler and
quicker solutions, such as open dumping, without considering long-term impacts. In this context, TPST
leaders need to consider the long-term impacts of the decision to switch to open dumping. While it
may provide a quick solution, open dumping can have serious consequences for the environment and
public health even in the absence of complaints from local residents. The disposition of TPST leaders,
whether positive or negative, will influence how they evaluate and respond to the impacts of any
decision taken.
Based on Edward III's Theory, it is important to understand that leaders' dispositions not only
influence decision-making but also play a role in the way policies or actions are explained and
implemented to staff and local communities. Therefore, in the face of waste management dilemmas, it
is important for TPST leaders to consider their own disposition and how it can shape the overall
approach to waste management at the local level.

b. Incentives

G. Edward III suggests that one of the suggested techniques to overcome the problem of
implementers' tendencies is to manipulate incentives (Ii & Teori, 1967). Since people generally act in
accordance with their own interests, manipulating incentives by policy makers (village government)
will influence the actions of policy implementers (TPST officers and the community). In the
implementation of the policy, incentives are given to TPST officers in the form of a monthly salary of
Rp 1,200,000.00, this incentive fund comes from the village fund budget and routine contributions
from residents during their monthly arisan. In addition, officers are also given additional incentives in
the form of THR and allowances at the end of each year worth Rp 200,000.00. One officer with the
workload of collecting waste from 4 RTs is considered to be quite draining in terms of energy and
time, this is in accordance with the following
Inovant Volume X, Number X,
X
Page X P-
ISSN. ............... E-ISSN ............

With the recognition of TPST officers who claim to be quite objecting to their workload, due to
limited infrastructure equipment, namely the use of manual wheelbarrows which are quite heavy when
used to transport waste from house to house to the TPST, it is not uncommon for officers to take the
initiative to collect household waste that can be resold to increase their personal income. Providing
incentives in this case can solve problems in TPST management but cannot solve problems in
infrastructure facilities.

4. Bureaucratic Structure
According to Edward III Widodo (2010: 106), policy implementation may be less effective
due to bureaucratic inefficiency. This bureaucratic structure includes aspects such as organizational
structure, division of authority, and relationships between organizational units (Ii & Theory, 1967).
Edward III Widodo (2010: 107) also explains that clear operational standards regarding mechanisms,
systems, and procedures for policy implementation, as well as the division of main tasks, functions,
authorities, and responsibilities between actors, are often lacking, and there is a lack of harmonization
between them. Relationships between implementing organizations also affect the successful
implementation of these guidelines. Bureaucracy plays an important role in determining how public
policies are implemented. According to Edwards III in Winarno (2005: 150), bureaucracy has two
main characteristics, namely Standard Operating Procedures (SOP) and Fragmentation.

a. Standard Operating Procedures (SOP)

According to Edward III in Winarno (2015: 150) SOP is a further development of internal
requirements for time security and needs uniformity in the appropriate framework. Based on the
observations we have made, the waste management process at the Wonokupang Village TPST starts
with collecting waste from each house to the TPST. After being collected at the TPST, waste officers
burn waste to reduce excessive accumulation of waste without prior sorting and classification. In
Wonokupang Village, there is only one officer who collects waste from several RTs in the village.
Waste collection from RT 1 to RT 4 is done every day in rotation with wheelbarrows because the
facilities used for waste collection are not optimal. In addition, to deal with waste that has accumulated
and has been so overloaded, waste management must also be carried out by open dumping to
overcome the problem of accumulated waste based on the decision of deliberations between the village
government and the community. in Wonokupang Village there are facilities and infrastructure that
cover the entire TPST land area of 160 m2, there are no bins available that classify the type of waste,
lack of road access to the TPST so that it can be passed using carts only.
Based on Edward III's theory, waste management in Wonokupang Village has not fully
complied with the regulated principles. The SOP provided by the government, namely Sidoarjo
Regency Regional Regulation No. 6/2012 concerning Waste Management and Retribution for Solid
Waste/Cleaning Services Article 7 states that waste management must be carried out through the
stages of waste sorting, collection, transportation, processing, and final processing. In the regional
regulation, the process of burning waste is not included in the methods recommended by the Regional
Regulation because it does not follow the principles of sustainable and environmentally friendly final
processing. Community involvement in supporting waste management programs is also not optimal. In
addition, based on PERMEN PU Number 3 of 2013 concerning the implementation of waste facilities
and infrastructure in the handling of household waste and waste disposal, the Ministry of Public Works
and Public Housing has issued a regulation on the implementation of waste facilities and infrastructure in
the handling of household waste.

ISSN. ............... E-ISSN ............

It seems that the facilities and infrastructure at TPST Wonokupang Village are not in accordance with
existing regulations. The provisions of technical criteria according to PERMEN PU Number 3 of 2013
are, (a) the area of the TPS must reach 200 m2, (b) there is a grouping of waste bins according to at
least 5 (five) types of waste, (c) access to the location is easy. The policy given by the Village
Government to the community for the success of the TPST is that the community is required to pay
fees, because these fees can help meet the needs of infrastructure that are less supportive. On the one
hand, small structures such as volunteer groups or environmental committees from the community that
can actively participate in supporting the implementation of waste management programs have not yet
been formed. It can be concluded that the implementation of the waste management system policy at
the Wonokupang Village TPST has not run in accordance with the applicable standard operating
procedures (SOP).

b. Fragmentation

Edward III explains in Winarno (2005: 155) that "Fragmentation is the division of policy
responsibilities among several different organizations, thus requiring coordination". Based on the
results of the interviews that have been conducted, the village government has speculation and
understanding that waste management and infrastructure facilities at the Wonokupang Village TPST
are in the form of processing waste by collecting waste which is then piled up at the TPST and then
burned in a furnace without sorting and classifying the waste first. However, for now, the waste
burning furnace is no longer used because it is considered too costly. The Village Government is also
proposing funding for new carts, which will be replaced with tosa carts or motorized carts. In addition,
the community's understanding of waste management is still not perfect. There are some residents who
sort and classify their own waste based on materials before being transported by the garbage workers
and there are also people who directly dispose of waste without sorting it first. On the other hand, there
is a difference in understanding between residents and waste haulers. Waste haulers' understanding of
waste management is in the form of collecting waste, piling it up at the TPST and then burning it.
Waste management is carried out by open dumping to overcome the accumulated problems in
accordance with the decision of the deliberation between the village government and the community.
Based on the Edward III theory previously explained, the policy organizer, which in this case
is the village government, must coordinate well, clearly, and consistently with policy recipients,
namely waste management officers and the community. It is intended that the information conveyed
by the policy organizers can be received clearly in accordance with their respective responsibilities.
However, the existence of an understanding between the village government and the community that
does not match causes uneven information provided and the absence of a common understanding of
the community, especially regarding this waste problem, so that socialization of the community is
needed by policy organizers. Based on the results of direct observation in the field in Wonokupang
Village, there is no volunteer group from the community involved in developing waste management
that can still be processed so that it has a selling value. If the village government provides clear
socialization regarding this matter, then the community can be directed to form a volunteer group for
waste management that still has selling value. One of the ways that can be done in managing waste that
still has a selling value is to make crafts from waste materials processed with the creativity of residents
from the results of sorting their waste. Improve coordination and integration between units or sectors
involved in waste management, especially in the waste management sector.

Policy organizers can be a critical step to ensure that policies and decisions taken are in accordance
with applicable regulations and in accordance with the principles of bureaucratic theory that prioritize
coordination and effectiveness in carrying out tasks.

Concluding

remarks

According to Edward III, communication is divided into three, namely transmission, clarity and
consistency. However, communication between the village government, waste collection officers and
the community has not been maximized regarding the delivery of information regarding the
implementation of policies on waste management and facilities and infrastructure. It is necessary to
hold socialization activities for the community and waste collection officers so that they understand
how to manage waste properly. According to Edward III, resources are divided into human resources,
budget resources and facility resources. At the Wonokupang Village TPST, resources have not been
fulfilled either from officers, the budget for facilities and infrastructure, and also the completeness of
facilities for the Wonokupang Village TPST has not been fulfilled. Therefore, this still needs a policy
from the Wonokupang Village Government to overcome these problems. Incentives in this case can
solve problems in TPST management, but cannot solve problems in infrastructure. Incentives in the
form of monthly salaries for TPST officers come from routine contributions from residents of RT 1, 2,
3, and 4 during monthly arisan. The total amount of funds collected is Rp. 1,200,000. In addition, TPST
officers also receive THR and year-end allowances. In the bureaucratic structure, there is a lack of
implementation in the program due to the lack of involving the community in the waste management
process.

Advice
Based on the description of the results of the discussion above, at the Wonokupang Village TPST
there are still many problems that occur both in terms of communication between the Village
Government, waste transport officers, and the community that is lacking regarding waste management
and also the lack of fulfillment of completeness in facilities and infrastructure to support the success of
TPST and the lack of human resources or staff for waste officers. In order for the implementation of
the Wonokupang Village TPST policy to run effectively and efficiently, there are several suggestions
that researchers can make including:

1. Provide socialization to waste transporters, and the community regarding how to manage waste
properly in accordance with applicable regulations.
2. Increase human resources or staff so that the implementation of policy implementation can be felt by
all residents of Wonokupang Village.
3. In addition to increasing human resources, facilities and infrastructure need to be added so that policy
implementation can be carried out effectively and efficiently.

4. The Village Government, together with the Government and related agencies, needs to appeal to the
community to make the TPST program a success.

5. Give more attention and emphasis to the community to be able to start sorting their waste
independently from their homes.
