The purpose of this study is to conduct a study of environmental damage at the location of rock and sand extraction and provide directions or recommendations for environmental management. The research location is in the Karangkendal Hamlet area in the Balong Hamlet, Umbulharjo Village, Cangkringan District area which has ecotourism potential. Ecotourism or ecotourism is one of the environmentally friendly tourism activities by prioritizing aspects of nature conservation, aspects of socio-cultural economic empowerment of local communities as well as aspects of learning and education. This tourism potential is supported by the majority of the area being used as agricultural land. The decision also shows that to reuse agricultural land on the slopes of Merapi after the eruption of Mount Merapi, it is necessary to carry out mitigation in the form of restoring agricultural land by moving eruption material so that the land has room to grow for plants. The problem that arises is that it turns out that there has been illegal and irregular mining of the sirtu material. so that this results in negative impacts both for the community around the planned activity location and the surrounding environment such as the potential for landslides, damage to agricultural land, and land that cannot be used for the long term (unproductive land). CV Rubi Khan Daiman who was assigned to carry out land restoration then collaborated with our research team to conduct research on efforts to mitigate environmental damage so that in the implementation of land restoration, the maximum positive impact will be obtained for the surrounding community and minimize negative impacts. so that this results in negative impacts both for the community around the planned activity location and the surrounding environment such as the potential for landslides, damage to agricultural land, and land that cannot be used for the long term (unproductive land).Downloads
