Inspection and Handling Programme Maintenance Drainage As Public Service On Disaster Region
Inspection and Handling Programme Maintenance Drainage As Public Service On Disaster Region
The national government through The Ministry of Public Works and Housing Indonesia has a duty
to fully fulfill its role as road manager. Road management consist of series of roles, namely road
arrangement, guidance, development and supervision. The Minister of PWH as one of
government’s elements need to establish policies (in term of regulation) which can be used for all
levels of roads in Indonesia, whether it’s national, province, or district / city roads. Technically,
road drainage is a building that is intended to protect road construction from runoff, both to
accommodate and drain rainwater or water that is on the road surface, road shoulder, and other
pathways as well as water from drainage below the road surface, but in disaster prone areas
drainage conditions are generally damaged and do not meet standards, thus accelerating damage
to the road's technical life. To encourage maintenance of the drainage function, especially in
disaster prone areas, rapid inspection and treatment programs are needed, so drainage functions
as a form of government presence in public services to the community. This paper aimed to
discuss inspection and drainage handling programs with the method used is qualitative, namely
literature review related to legality, and interviews with stakeholders. The results of studies and
interviews were analyzed qualitatively. Quantitatively, this paper measured drainage dimensions
in the field and visual observations of physical conditions and function of drainage. From these
results, a weighting analysis was then carried out to assess the conditions which can then be
determined by the drainage handling program.
inspecting road drainage, both in the general area and in disaster-prone areas. For this reason,
the goal of this paper is to review the drainage inspections by integrating between inventory and
inspection and looking at drainage conditions (roadside ducts, culverts, inlets, outlets, control
tanks, subdrain, Low Impact Drainage, polders, including Surface channels road slopes), so that
the government can then carry out special handling programs especially in disaster-prone areas.
LITERATURE REVIEW
Road Drainage
Drainage, which is flowing, draining, removing, or diverting water (Suripin, 2004). A way to dispose
of unwanted excess water in an area, as well as ways to mitigate the effects of the excess water
(Suhardjono, 1984). Drainage is any attempt to drain or discharge excess water in an area, both
surface water and sub-surface water, the disposal can be to natural water bodies (rivers, lakes)
or artificial (ducts, infiltration buildings) and can be done by natural means (system gravity),
mechanical means (with pumps) or a combination of both (Directorate General of Highway, 2005).
The roadside duct is a part of complementary construction in road that supports the function and
security of road (Ministry of PWH Regulation No. 13 of 2011 and Ministry of PWH Regulation No.
11 of 2010). The roadside duct is a complementary construction that functions as a support for
road construction (Ministry of PWH Regulation No.19 of 2011). Based on the three Regulations,
it has been required that roadside ducts (road drainage) are indeed mandatory and must also be
managed.
Inspection and Drainage Handling Program is a system of planned and integrated handling and
management of road drainage through activity of input data conditions (inventory and inspection)
of road drainage and assessment of conditions as advice for drainage handling programs (routine
maintenance, periodic maintenance, rehabilitation, reconstruction). Furthermore, it is interpreted
as the implementation of a road drainage management system which is an effort to inventory
assets, inspect conditions, assess conditions and develop a program for handling road drainage.
Inventory activities are data collection activities, recording and reporting of data collection of
government property (BMN), at least 1 (one) time in 5 years (Circular of the Minister of Public
Works Number 05 of 2014). Whereas the inspection activities are visual observation of road
drainage conditions through detailed examination and recording of the condition of the building
and its complementary facilities (Pd T-14-2005-B).
As mandated in Article 85 of Government Regulation Number 27 of 2014 concerning Management
of Government Property (BMN), Property Users must carry out an inventory of the property at
least 1 (one) time in 5 (five) years, the results of which will be reported to no later than
3 (three) months after completion of the inventory. Inventory is done to find out the actual value
and condition of BMN with the aim that all BMNs can be properly recorded, thus simplifying BMN
management.
The inventory of road drainage assets consists of two aspects, namely physical and juridical/legal
inventory. Physical aspects consist of form, area, location, volume/number, type, address and
others. Meanwhile, the juridical aspect is the status of authorization and the legal problem. The
work process carried out is data collection, codification/labeling, grouping and
bookkeeping/administration in accordance with the objectives of asset management.
The purpose and benefits of inventory of road drainage assets are assisting asset owners (DGH)
in monitoring, controlling and maintaining assets, improving physical security and legal aspects
of assets, and facilitating the provision of information when reporting asset inventories. The activity
of road drainage inspection is one part of the activities integrated in the road drainage
management system, together with inventory, condition assessment and maintenance programs.
Road drainage inspection consists of routine and special inspections. Each inspection is carried
out by collecting data and examining the condition of roadside ducts, culverts, outlets, subdrain,
LIDs and road slope drainage. The inspection is carried out visually in the field using a printed
form or an Android/iOS based application form and is supported by several equipment.
Inspection data is recorded and managed in GIS-based and web-based database applications
and is also known as the Road Drainage Management Information System. The database can be
accessed by Android/iOS and desktop by stakeholders and the general public. The purpose and
benefits of inspection activities help asset owners (DGH) in monitoring, controlling, maintaining,
improving physical security, functioning, providing physical information, conditions, and preparing
program activities to maintain the service life of the road drainage system. The road drainage
management information system (SIMDJ) is one of the "tools" or subsystems of the road drainage
system management. This tool is a system that integrates the results of inventory, inspection,
condition assessment (level of risk), handling and preparation of road drainage system
maintenance programs in the form of an Android-based application/software system that contains
information about road drainage conditions and functions. The information displayed is based on
the results of inventory surveys and inspections.

Public Service
Nugroho (2008) states that the main task of government for society to live and develop is to
provide three types of tasks carried out by organizations that are deliberately formed to carry out
these tasks. The types of task are:
1. Service (public): is the task of providing services to the public without discrimination and
provided free of charge or at a cost in such a way that even the most incapable groups
can reach them.
2. Development: is the duty to improve the economic welfare of the community. This task
focuses on efforts to build productivity from the community and create economic value for
the economic productivity.
3. Empowerment: is the role to make every citizen of the community able to improve the
quality of humanity and society.
With this understanding, it is appropriate for the government (through the Ministry of PWH) to
improve the welfare of the community, to be quick and precise in disaster management programs.
The concept of public facilities services must be excellent, which according to Fittzsimmons and
Fittzsimmons in Rusli Budiman (2014), must be developed in accordance with Tangibles
(adequate physical evidence, including human resources), Empathy (emotional ability to the
needs of all stakeholders), Reliability (services that fast and precise without discrimination),
Responsiveness (responsive to stakeholder complaints), and Assurance (guarantee of certainty
of quality and quantity of service). With this function, it is expected that disaster management
programs can continue through increasing the role of stakeholders including the government,
regional government, the private sector and local communities.
Furthermore, the Technical Guideline for Public Service Standards is also stipulated in Minister
of Administrative and Bureaucratic Reform Number 36 of 2012 that by 2025 we reach the
implementation of prime services with international standards. As for Law No. 25 of 2009
concerning public services, among others, explains about some of the following:
1) Basic thought that contains:
a. The obligation of the country to serve the basic rights of society
b. Build community trust to the country
c. The legal norm of public relations with the country
2) Character
a. Strengthening and empowering the community
b. Strengthening and bridging laws
3) Purpose and Objectives
a. Legal certainty for the community and organizers
b. A clear boundary between rights, obligations, authority, prohibitions
c. Appropriate system and community protection
Based on Law Number 25 of 2009 concerning public services, Article 1 paragraph 1 explains that
what is meant by public service is an activity or series of activities in order to fulfill service needs
in accordance with the laws and regulations for every citizen and resident toward goods, services
and or administrative services provided by public service providers. The meaning of public service
is every state administering institution, corporation, independent institution formed based on the
law for public service activities and other legal entities formed solely for public service activities.
In Law Number 25 of 2009 Article 4 concerning Public Services, it is also explained about the
principle in the implementation of public services, namely: 1) Public interest, 2) legal certainty, 3)
Human rights, 4) Balance of rights and obligations, 5) Professionalism, 6) Participatory, 7) Equality
of treatment/non-discrimination, 8) Openness, 9) Accountability, 10) Facilities and special
treatment for vulnerable groups, 11) Punctuality, 12) Speed, ease and affordability.
In Law Number 25 of 2009 Article 15 letter (a) concerning public services, states that "the
Operator/organizer is obliged to prepare and set service standards ", and later in Article 20 it is
explained that "The Operator is obliged to set up and set service standards by taking into account
the operator’s ability, community needs, and environmental conditions, operator must involve the
community and related parties.
HYPOTHESIS
Inspection and Program for Handling Drainage Maintenance in Disaster Prone Areas is an effort
to provide public services as a government obligation through integration activities between
inventory and inspection by looking at drainage conditions which include roadside ducts, culverts,
inlets, outlets, control tanks, subdrain, LIDs (Low Impact Drainage), polders, including road slope
surfaces in areas prone to natural disasters, so that they can carry out a management program
so that road and bridge facilities and infrastructure can function again even though they are
temporary and emergency, or better than before, through rapid assessment of road drainage
conditions.
METHODOLOGY
This paper used primary data and secondary data. Primary data was obtained through surveys
and interviews of experts from various government agencies and business entities related to the
issues under study. Samples were obtained through purposive sampling method, the sample was
chosen slightly and selected according to the research objectives (Arikunto 1993). This paper also
measured the dimensions of the drainage, as well as visual observations of the function of the
drainage ducts. From the combined results of these two data, a scoring of drainage conditions was
be made which would determine the drainage maintenance program.
Government institutions as the source of data included: Directorate General of Highway, National
Road Operator (BBPJN) VI, VII and VIII, Department of Public Works and Spatial Planning of
East Java Province, Semarang City, and Cirebon City. The chosen location is still on the island
of Java as a research sample, because this region is also a potential for disaster-prone areas of
flood, which is caused by a large tide so that sea water enters the land, and annual flooding occurs
due to high rainfall and clogged drainage by something (garbage, sediment, etc.), so that the
water flow is not functioning properly. The secondary data included government legislation related
to the implementation of infrastructure for public services, and input from various experts and
practitioners. The laws and regulations included regulations on drainage, roads and public
services. With other agencies, interviews were carried out with relevant officials as respondents,
so that data was obtained on the types of handling, and activities that had been carried out, as
well as lack of program management, community participation and so on. The measurement of
drainage and direct observation were done on the national road segments in Banten Province
(BBPJN VI), and provincial roads segments in the Lembang - Subang road (West Java Province).
The analytical technique used was a descriptive qualitative analysis approach and quantitative
analysis. This technique is used for research where data collection is done through observation
and interviews with data obtained in the form of words, writings, images, and numbers. Then the
data obtained is then collected and carried out in a detailed recording related to the research
problem. Data collected from discussions and interviews were then verified and "confronted" again
with other data sources. As for quantitative data, the analysis was performed by checking the
validity of the findings, and scoring. Data analysis was done through the process of searching and
managing the results of interviews or material that has been systematically collected, and
combined with the results of quantitative analysis.
The process of checking the validity of the data was done to obtain the right and objective
conclusions that correspond to the facts. The analyzed aspects in this study included:
1. Public Services: to assess the pattern of services provided, and how to develop strategies to
improve service to the community.
2. Measuring the structure and function of drainage, which is then recorded through the
dimensions of drainage measurement data, as well as photos of drainage conditions for further
scoring.
This research was carried out systematically and thoroughly through literature review and
interviews with stakeholders related to the provision of infrastructure development for public
services. The results of this study are expected to be utilized by the government in making
drainage handling programs in areas prone to natural disasters.
Broadly speaking, the stages in this study began with background identification which justifying
the need for an inventory and then inspection, resulting in an assessment of drainage conditions
through scoring, based on good conditions, light damage, moderate damage, and severe damage.
Thus, the program would then be formulated through periodic maintenance, rehabilitation and
reconstruction. For more details, see in Figure 1.

Programs for Road Drainage Maintenance
RESULTS AND ANALYSIS
Determination of drainage handling programs in disaster prone areas, in the form of public
services, must be right on target (right goals), right benefits, and appropriate rules/laws (right law).
Accuracy is the main factor that determines the success of the government in carrying out this
activity, where the assessment of conditions will be very decisive in the handling program. To
assess the conditions that include physical and functionalities, the same perception (for the
surveyors) is needed through observing the physical drainage conditions (for example regarding
cracked, broken and collapsed). This is very much time-consuming and costly if it is not done with
visual observation. For this reason, it is necessary to do the same perception of the photo before
the surveyors observe the assessment of drainage conditions in the field. Figure 2 shows an
example of the photographs referred to a condition, while in Figure 3 the conditions and
parameters referred to the picture are explained.

4. severe damage
After making direct observations in the field, then data on drainage conditions are inventoried for
later labeled, so that it can be read. For more details, see the following Table 1:
1. Wilayah Lembang
2. Wilayah Banten
From the data obtained, analysis was carried out by scoring the results of the field data by referring
to the scoring table to determine the drainage maintenance treatment program, and for more
details please see Table 2 below:
CONCLUSION AND RECOMMENDATION
Based on the foregoing description, it can be concluded that the handling program can be carried
out based on the percentage of damage (physical condition) and function of the drainage. Where
if the condition assessment decreases below 20% (X <20%) then Routine Maintenance is enough,
if the drainage condition decreases between 20 - 40% (20% <x <40%) then a Periodic
Maintenance is carried out, and for the condition decreases between 40% - 60% (40% <x <60%)
rehabilitation is needed, and finally for the condition decreases above 60% (x> 60%)
Reconstruction is needed. For more details, these programs can be explained in Table 3.
