South Kalimantan Forestry Agency reported that forest area utilazation permits (IPPKH) holders have been fulfilling their obligation to rehabilitate the province's river basin areas (DAS).
"More than 30,000 hectares have been (and being) rehabilitated by IPPKH holder," acting Head of South Kalimantan Forestry Office Hj Fathimatuzzahra said, Saturday (March 19, 2022).
She expounded that DAS rehabilitation cannot directly be assessed due to some factors, including some are just beginning to plant (P0), others are in the stage of maintenance (P1) and second maintenance (P2).
"It's not that they don't carry out rehab, but most of permits holder are in the process of completion, because DAS rehabilitation is conduted in stages, adjusting funding and time of implementation," she elaborated.
Of 30,000 hectares land rehabilitated, 4,000 hectares have been assessed on the success rate of plant growth and were declared successful and returned to stakeholder (government).
Based on Regulation of Ministry of Environment and Forestry No. P.59/MENLHK/SETJEN/KUM.1/10/2019 concerning planting for DAS rehabilitation, 84 IPPKH issued for 48 companies covering an area of around 60,000 hectares.
