Abstract:
In urban Indonesia, 40 million people rely on groundwater self-supply, however the role of self-supply in securing household water provision remains unexplored. This study used a mixed-methods approach to understand the use and management of household self-supply in the Indonesian cities of Bekasi and Metro, where a high proportion of households rely on private wells for water supply. Self-supply was the preferred drinking water source because of its perceived safety, taste and appearance at both study sites. The most important attributes influencing choice of domestic water source were appearance, reliability and safety in Bekasi, and safety followed by convenience and reliability in Metro. Coping strategies to overcome quality and availability problems of self-supply included water treatment, switching from dug wells to deeper boreholes and the use of multiple water sources. All households reported boiling self-supplied water, however, the labor involved was tiring for some households, leading them to resort to alternative water sources. Reasons for non-use of alternative water sources such as refill water and public piped systems included a lack of trust in water quality and perceived poor taste. Regarding self-supply management, responsibilities and decision-making varied across households, but cooperation between men and women concerning workload was common. Women were mostly responsible for household water management, and men were mostly responsible for maintenance and repairs, cleanliness of the water source and financing. To support and regulate self-supply towards a safely managed water service, strategies for improvements should be considered not only at the source, but also at point-of-use, including promotion of safe household water treatment and management. Although self-supply was the main water source at these study sites, alternative sources such as refill water and public piped systems played an important role in supplementing inadequate supplies, and hence their safety and reliability should be considered when establishing support strategies.

Abstract:
For years cities in Indonesia have experienced massive urban and economic developments which involvedconversion of land to economic areas and human settlements. These cause some cities in Indonesia to face critical condition isproviding clean waters and services of urban sanitation. As a consequence of clean water demand, industries and householdexplore ground water as a source of clean water. Over abstraction of ground water has impacted declining of groundwater tableand land subsidence. Due to the problems that have been created by aspects above, it is necessary to acquire a frameworkdealing with the complexity of urban water problems in Indonesian cities that could explain the urban water security, and tobe used to monitor and evaluate the progress of the cities in improving their urban water services. This paper is describing thedimensions that give affects to urban water security with their phenomena and problems in Indonesian cities and build thetheoretical framework of urban water security. The result of this research is a theoretical framework of urban water security,consists of five key dimensions of urban water security, such as: Water Supply Management, Stormwater Management,Wastewater Management, Groundwater Management and Solid Waste Management.

Abstract:
Community-based development approach has been successful in accelerating access to rural water supply and sanitation in Indonesia. However, it suffers with criticism on its effectiveness to sustain services and to protect environment. A transformation of approach to citizen engagement is promoted to achieve better development outcomes. Through case study in four villages, this study diagnosed what define and determine citizen engagement in Indonesian rural water supply and sanitation. Determinants of citizen engagement is synthesized by using narrative thematic analysis for the qualitative data and principal component analysis for 708 household survey data. It found that citizen engagement is an interrelation of structure, culture and process elements of social life. Sustainable service of rural water supply and sanitation should be seen as enriched and restructured management cycle with citizen engagement concept. The study offers an improved service delivery cycle of rural water supply developed by Lockwood and Smith in 2011. Method of analysis and the findings of this study demonstrate the integration of sociological and environmental science perspectives. It also provides input to strengthen rural water supply and sanitation programs, especially Pamsimas and STBM, the two biggest government development programs for rural water and sanitation in Indonesia.

Abstract:
The number of clean water needed will always increase when the number of the population still shows growth. It must have the same level from the supply and demand or the supply of clean water has higher than the demand for clean water. Some cities in Indonesia have problems with the fulfilment of clean water. Factors from climate change, behaviour, and management can affect the conditions of clean water resources. The development of technologies and science makes the reuse of the water process can be done for another resource of clean water fulfilment. Rainwater harvesting, membrane bioreactors, reverse osmosis, and filtration systems are some kind of processing systems for the water mechanism for the fulfilment of clean water. Sustainable clean water resources and supply is one of the indicators of sustainable development goals. This research was conducted to see how is the potential of water reuse for the fulfilment of clean water in Indonesia by using several systems or processing that have been installed and used. The control and evaluation is the best key to make sure the clean water resources still in the best condition and water reuse is one of the plan to support fulfilment of clean water.

Abstract:
The Kota Makassar water utility serving (<em>Perusahaan Daerah Air Minum</em> - PDAM) faces a significant problem in managing water resources for their drinking water supply. The problems comprise raw water supply, the vulnerability of water quality, infrastructures, costs, and climate change uncertainty. The availability of clean water is one of the problems in the field of national defense. Because water is the main source of life in all sectors, be it agriculture or livestock. This study is aimed at assisting officials in making an adaptive and resilient decision. It involves inter-and cross-disciplinary studies within Robust Decision-Making (RDM) in water resources management planning for drinking water supply and disaster mitigation in Makassar. This research applies a qualitative approach in data analysis; reviewing strategies used by the utility management to anticipate all uncertainty, long-term strategies feasibility from simulation models, analyzing potential vulnerability scenarios, and the trade-off for an adaptive and robust decision in water resources management planning for drinking water supply in Makassar through RDM. The novelty lies in the raw water management policy that is more adaptive toward potential vulnerability and presents a variety of raw water supply alternatives in the long term. Reviews against the document of drinking water Master Plan found that the absence of harmony along with a high level of anticipation towards the threat of climate change along with their impact, as well as the threat of the raw water supply limitations due to the exogenous problems beyond the reach of human beings capacity, will result in global and long-term impact.

Abstract:
Despite Bali’s dependency on tourism, concerns over the impact of tourism on water scarcity are increasing. The objective of this study is to analyze the clean water demand related to tourism growth and compare them with the available clean water supply. This study suggested that tourism water demand has increased by 20.8 million m3 (295%) from 1988 to 2013. Sixty-eight percent of the increase was concentrated in Badung Regency, where the tourism water demand ratio has increased from 31% to 46%. The study also suggested that rapid population growth has caused an increase in domestic water demand by 48.3 million m3 (48%). This study also shows that the capacity of clean water supply in Bali has increased significantly to meet these demands and the water supply coverage of domestic water demand has increased significantly from 13% in 1988 to 53% in 2013. The water supply coverage of tourism demand varies from year to year with an average of 28% in the study period. The increasing issues over water scarcity despite the improvement in the coverage of domestic water demand suggest further investigations. Yet, despite the large gap between supply and demand in the tourism sector the industry still can have undisrupted clean water throughout the year. This indicates the use of alternative clean water which can be obtained locally such as groundwater. Wise water management through the sharing of scientific data, including in the tourism sector is imperative in solving water scarcity in Bali.

Abstract:
This paper discusses how Management Control Systems is used to control performance in local government owned companies in Indonesia. Performance becomes important and unique in local government owned companies since those companies are not only targeted by profit but they also have responsibilities for social function. This study focuses on performance control in water supply companies as typical local government owned company in Indonesia. Balance Scorecard is chosen as the performance measurement tool in all water supply companies in Indonesia. This research applies quantitative research in order to analyze cause effect relationship between variables by using Multiple Regression Analysis. Data is collected through survey by using questionnaires. The respondents were the managerial team and employees of local government owned companies in Indonesia. The results show that four perspectives of Balance Scorecard are modified into four types of performance i.e. financial, service, operational, and human resource performance. This performance measurement is used to control people in achieving targeted performance. Moreover, this performance measurement becomes an important part of management control systems. This research also discovers that management control systems is effective to influence performance, even when some interventions exist.

Abstract:
Low service coverage of public water supply companies and high dependency on groundwater are typical characteristics of urban water supply provision in developing countries. A case study of Semarang, Indonesia, shows that such phenomena have a detrimental effect on the environment. Land subsidence, seawater intrusion and sea flooding are, to some extent, the results of the failure of the public water supply company to service all Semarang City inhabitants. The study of the Semarang coastal area shows that the lack of access, especially to the poor, is a business opportunity for small-scale water supply providers. The problem with these providers is that all of them use groundwater as sources. The worse the service of the public water supply company the more necessary it is to regulate groundwater extraction. The poor will become very dependent on groundwater while also becoming victims of environmental degradation due to excessive groundwater extraction. The study shows that all inhabitants, poor and rich alike, are waiting to be supplied by the public water supply company. They will change to the public water supply whenever the service is available.

Abstract:
A water supply service can be seen as a public or private good, but this thesis makes the argument that water is vital for society and so to ensure accountability it is important that water governance includes citizens' participation for social and environmental justice concerns. Public goods are generally defined as goods and services that are provided by 'means of public policy' (Lane, 1993, p. 21), or 'collective political choice' (Stretton & Orchard, 1994, p. 54) rather than by means of an individual market mechanism in which private goods are usually provided. This thesis addresses the function of water as a public good. If social and environmental goals of water use are ignored, the implications can be detrimental particularly for the poorest members of society. An organization's goal effectiveness is usually related to its success in achieving desired outcomes of the organization's goals through a systemic management interaction across organizational aspects at the input, process, output, and outcome/impact stages. This thesis argues an evaluation model of performance measurement can be developed to reflect the characteristics of a public good for a water supply utility, and this model of performance measurement can assist in addressing issues of social and environmental justice. Harris et al argue that better governance can only be achieved by working for democracy in multiple arenas (Harriss, Stokke, & Tornquist, 2004, pp. 7-8). This study considers multidimensional performance measures taking on board the values of many stakeholders with different backgrounds. It 'unfolds' and 'sweeps in' in many dimensions in an attempt at systemic representation (Ulrich, 1983, p. 169). McIntyre- Mills states that 'service need to reflect the values of the users and for this to occur the users need to participate in and decide on policy design and governance' (McIntyre-Mills, 2003, p. 14). Performance measurement systems can be used to detect a gap between services supplied by providers and various needs demanded by stakeholders. The thesis develops an outcome performance measurement model for evaluating social equity and environmental justice concerns. It draws on and adapts four performance measurement models of the International Water Association, World Bank, Indonesian Home Affairs Department and Indonesian Water Supply Enterprise Association. A complementary combined method was developed that addresses qualitative and quantitative governance concerns as they perform to water supply performance problems. Three research methods were used, namely the case study, survey and focus group discussion for collecting qualitative and quantitative data from the three governance sectors. These were triangulated. Five research tools in the case study method were used for collecting information from stakeholders in the three governance sectors including interview, personal communication or email, document analysis, direct observation and documentation. The survey was used to investigate 431 respondents from three case study locations in Cinusa1 city, and the two focus groups were conducted in the city's water supply company management for discussing problems of water supply performance as summarized from the survey. The locus of this study was concentrated in the Cinusa city jurisdiction area, and the focus was the performance problem of the water supply company in Cinusa during 2001-2004. However, a comparative study of water supply performance nationally and internationally is presented for analyzing relative performance gaps.This research evaluates interconnections among cost inefficiency, tariff escalation and other non-financial performances: water supply quantity, quality, continuity and pressure. Inefficient costs because of corrupt, collusive and nepotistic practices in this Indonesian water supply company implicate cost burdens in the company and prevent this water local public enterprise perform its social and environmental missions. The Cinusa local government as the owner of this local public enterprise and the Cinusa local parliament hold a monopoly power in some important decisions related to this local public enterprise, including tariff policy, senior management positions and the total amount of profit share paid to the local government. Such customers from lower income household instead of being subsidized as specified in the national regulation are paying at a profitable tariff and subsidizing this enterprise's inefficiency and the government's locally generated revenue. The inefficiency alongside the profit sharing policy also weakens this enterprise's capacity to invest and improve its service performances. Improving the service performance is essential for current and potential customers and could also benefit the society economically, socially and environmentally, besides being of economic benefit to the enterprise itself. Securing public health concerns and groundwater preservations can be conducted by improving the accessibility, the availability and the reliability of water quality, quantity, pressure and continuity. This research presents an evaluation model for improving the accountability of water supply by means of performance management tool and it makes policy recommendations.

Abstract:
The challenge of water provision in third world cities is to maintain the supply in the context of inadequate and inefficient piped water infrastructure and diminishing raw resources. In order to examine the role of governance in this, I utilize a range of theoretical positions: the welfare orientation, rational choice paradigm, common goods theory and regime theory, and present them as ways to explore the subjective dimension of water provision. Using the city of Jakarta, Indonesia as a case study, this dissertation explores the issues using different perspectives on a single principal focus, the roles of the government and its relations to non-governmental actors. This research used data from secondary materials such as management reports, policy and academic reports, and scientific studies. The major source of primary data were interviews conducted with about 40 key actors. Qualitative analysis used a system of information coding and triangulation. The conclusion reached is that the approach to managing clean water provision needs to be redefined in relation to the water management regimes found in situated research. In Jakarta, one may define three regimes: piped water, surface and shallow groundwater, and deep groundwater. Accessing water from greater urban watershed, treatment plants and a "manufacturing process" results in the delivery of a product. Such a system reduces the possibility of the tragedy of the commons, that is, the over-extraction of groundwater by individuals. But a more inclusive and enforced regulatory system must be established for groundwater, as it remains a needed source of supply. Local and low-technology solutions, international agency assistance, the policies of privatization and decentralization, and better land use planning, all hold out the promise of movement towards a solution. But, as the case study demonstrates, success has so far been mixed. Many options do not address water scarcity at the city level and problems of inequitable service. It is only the prospect government reform towards a better allocation of roles, new management ideas and greater co-operation within and among the water regimes that will lead to better provision of clean water.

Abstract:
Sustainability of water resources is essential to ensure that available water can be used by both present and future generations. To ensure sustainability, a comprehensive knowledge of the current conditions of water resources is necessary. Once this information is obtained, relevant programs can be designed to improve the quality and use of water resources. A water sustainability index is a useful tool to obtain information on the current conditions of water resources. It can also be used to identify all factors contributing to these conditions, to assist decision makers prioritising water issues, to design programs related to water resource improvement, and to communicate the current status of existing water resources to the general community. In the recent past, several indices related to water resource sustainability have been developed. Even though there have been some successful experiences with the implementation of existing sustainability indices, they are not fully applicable in other regions or countries, since most of these indices have been developed for specific regions or countries. This study aims at developing a new water sustainability index for West Java, Indonesia, which can be used as a tool to improve the management of water resources in West Java. The development of the West Java Water Sustainability Index (WJWSI) involved the design of the conceptual framework, the application of Delphi technique to refine and finalise the conceptual framework, the application of WJWSI in three West Java catchments, and finally the robustness analysis of WJWSI through uncertainty and sensitivity analysis.

Abstract:
The solar-powered ice maker was developed in Kemujan, Karimunjawa island, Indonesia. It was powered by 6.66 kWp of solar PV, 19.2 kVAh battery storage, as well as 2 kW of solar ice maker machine, and connected into the utility grid (PLN). Solar energy is applied in this system to minimize utility grid consumption, which is produced by a diesel generator. The hierarchy of the energy supply was PV, batteries, and PLN, respectively. The system is capable to produce 180 kg of ice per production cycle, with a production cycle duration of roughly 20–27 hours. On cloudy days, the renewable energy penetration is around 15–19%. The COP of the ice maker machine is 1.02 and 1.45 for production cycle with ambient brine water temperature and low brine water temperature, respectively.

Abstract:
Droughts develop largely due to below-average precipitation over a land area, and they adversely affect various economic sectors in a region. Some of these adverse effects include reductions in agricultural production, hydropower generation, urban and rural water supplies, and industrial outputs. These effects lead to other consequences, secondary and tertiary, that further impact an economy. For instance, when agricultural production declines, food and other commodities tend to cost more and cause economic inflation in a society. Chain effects of persistent droughts can shatter an economy and even cause famine and sociopolitical upheaval in some countries. How does one define a drought? Usually, either precipitation or a form of drought impact is used to define a drought. Because precipitation and drought impacts vary spatially, there is a geographical dimension to definitions of drought. In Saudi Arabia or Libya, droughts are recognized after two to three years without significant rainfall, whereas in Bali (Indonesia), any period of six days or more without rain is considered drought (Dracup et al., 1980; Sen, 1990). In Egypt, any year in which the Nile does not flood is considered a drought year. More than 150 definitions of drought are available in the literature (Gibbs, 1975; Krishnan, 1979; Dracup et al., 1980; Wilhite and Glantz, 1987). For example, a drought can be characterized as climatological, meteorological, water management, socioeconomic, absolute, partial, dry spell, serious, severe, multiyear, design, critical, point, or regional (Palmer, 1965; Herbst et al., 1966; Joseph, 1970a, 1970b; Askew et al., 1971; Beard and Kubik, 1972; Karl, 1983; Santos, 1983; Alley, 1984; Chang, 1990). Often, the difference between an estimated water demand and an expected water supply in a region becomes the basis to define a drought for that region (Kumar and Panu, 1997). A few of the chapters in this book provide a brief description of drought definitions that have been adopted in some countries. Despite the variation in drought definitions, a drought is broadly categorized as meteorological, hydrological, agricultural, or socioeconomic. A meteorological drought is said to occur when seasonal or annual precipitation falls below its long-term average.
