Indonesia Launching Laboratory Tender

Current environmental pollution needs to optimize resources so that they can be responded quickly. This is constrained by the geographical conditions of Indonesias vast territory and the lack of availability of facilities infrastructure and competent human resources in the regions in the field of environmental quality testing. Environmental laboratories are at the cutting edge of being able to provide the data needed for environmental management. Increasing regional capacity in environmental management is one of the agendas that needs to be followed up including in terms of guidance supervision and law enforcement.The Center for Quality Research and Environmental Laboratory P3KLL of the Research and Development Agency of LHK carries out the launch of a laboratory car in order to support the Early Warning System for Environmental Disasters. The official launch was carried out by the Head of the Research and Development Agency of the Ministry of Environment and Forestry representing the Minister of Environment and Forestry LHK in the Auditorium of the Manggala Wanabakti Building Jakarta Monday December 23 2019. The laboratory car is a vehicle in which there are several laboratory facilities that can be used in a mobile manner so that environmental quality testing can be done at the scene site.This is KLHKs innovation to provide a quick response to the threat of environmental pollution that can occur at any time said Minister of the Environment Siti Nurbaya in his remarks read out by the Head of the Research and Development Agency and Innovation BLI of KLHK Agus Justianto. This laboratory car was handed over to 5 five regions namely Riau Province P3E Sumatra South Sumatra Province DLHP Banten Province DLHK East Java Province DLH and East Kalimantan Balitbangtek KSDA Samboja - BLI KLHK. The laboratory car launching event was joined by the signing of the Cooperation Agreement PKS between BLI - KLHK with DLHK Banten Province DLHK East Java Province and DLHK South Sumatra Province.Before the launch of the laboratory car P3KLL had conducted synergy with stakeholders in the 5 five regions sequentially starting from Banten Province East Kalimantan Province East Java Province South Sumatra Province and Riau Province from 2 October to 1 November 2019 and has carried out Technical Guidance on Air Air and B3 Quality for laboratory car analysts. The purpose of this synergy is to increase the commitment of environmental laboratory stakeholders to the importance of environmental laboratories in the regions harmonize the division of central and regional government affairs in the environmental field in fulfilling the mandate of the RPJMN 2020-2024 as a national priority activity and to harmonize the roles of government private and community in management of the environment.This laboratory car contains facilities for taking samples and testing the quality of the environment with the scope of testing namely Air 8 parameters Water 30 parameters and Solids 10 parameters. The equipment in the laboratory car consists of Test Equipment such as Portable Spectrophotometer TDS DHL Salinometer pH meter DO meter Portable FTIR Spectrometer Portable XRF soil pH meter Basic Soil Sampling Kit etc. as well as Supporting Equipment such as Genset 3 KVA Silent equivalent to Honda Eu30is sink set hood 40L cool box waste bottling fire extinguisher glass ware and pipettes exhaust fan emergency exit etc. and Personal Protective Equipment PPE and OSH in laboratory cars such as laboratory coats sampling jackets gloves.This laboratory car can be used for efforts to control environmental pollution in around 5 five areas by related parties through the mechanism stipulated in the Implementation Manual for Laboratory Car Operationalization with the existence of this laboratory car it is hoped that it can help efforts to control pollution in environmental management more well. Issues and environmental impacts that arise must be carried out and supported by various parties involved both from the central provincial and local governments and by the community. Real activities that can be carried out by the government concerned are by conducting monitoring and supervision of the issue of environmental pollution so that it does not cause wider impacts and losses.
