JAKARTA, KOMPAS – Indonesia already has several regulations to tackle the adverse impacts of former mines. Among them is Law No. 4/2009 on mining, minerals and coal, which requires all mining companies to reclaim former mines.

Law No 4/2009 cites reclamation as a series of activities throughout the mining process that seek to reorganize and improve the quality of the environment and ecosystem to ensure that they can function properly in line with their intended usage. Well-planned, systematic and sustainable post-mining activities are conducted either wholly or partially after mining to restore the area’s environmental or social function.
