2.3 Resource Base
2.3.1 Water resources
Bandar Lampung is traversed by two great rivers namely Way Kuala and Kuripan, and 23 small rivers Bandar lampung Regional Development Planning Agency,
2008. All of these rivers form a watershed located in the area of Bandar Lampung
5 and most of it lead up to Lampung Bay. Several artificial drainage networks connect
river system in this region. The function of this drainage network is to reduce surface runoff as a result of excessive rainwater. Drainage network systems that have been
installed in Bandar Lampung include Teluk Betung, Tanjung Karang, Panjang and Kandis.
Citizens of Bandar Lampung fulfill their needs of water through regional water company PDAM and by retrieving shallowdeep ground water from dug wells. At
present PDAM is able to meet only 27 of the total citizens of Bandar Lampung, while the remaining 73 still have to use water from dug wells. The depth of dug
wells is approximately 30 to 50 meters from the soil surface.
2.3.2 Coastal areas
Bandar Lampung is an important port city for Sumatra region. Port city of Bandar Lampung is located in a bay-shaped beach so high waves caused by strong winds
will not directly hit the beach area. However, in some coastal areas, there has been abrasion caused by waves.
In some locations, coastal areas are densely populated area. To meet the demand for housing, citizens build homes in the reclamation area thus causing accretion. This
situation can become an obstacle in the zoning of the coastal areas. Under such conditions, the realization of the Bandar lampung Governments plan to create water
front city
region should also take into account the costs to overcome the problem of settlements in coastal areas, although many of the settlers do not have legal evidence
of land ownership. Center of economic activities in the Coastal and Beach areas in Bandar Lampung is
focused on the Harbor Area.
2.3.3 Land use
In 1992, settlement was concentrated in the middle of Bandar Lampung, but 14 years later it grew to the east Sub-district Tanjung Seneng and to the northeast Sub-
district Sukarame. The development of residential areas has led to the shrinking of dry land agriculture.
Pattern of in land use changes for 14 years 1992-2006 is presented in Figure 2.3.
6 Figure 2.3:Distribution of changes in land usecover in Bandar Lampung in 1992
and 2006 Land function in Bandar Lampung has changed rapidly. In 1992 there were 4 types
of land usecover, but in 2006 it grew to 9 types. In 1992, the highest percentage of land use was dry land agriculture 60 but in 2006 the number shrank to only
13.4 Table 2.2.

into 8 different types of land uses.

In overall condition, land use in Bandar Lampung is classified into built utilized areas and open space. Utilized areas consist of land for yards, offices, trades,
services, and industries. Open space areas consist of fields, gardens, forests and others. The utilized areas occupied more than 30 of Bandar Lampung City area,
and primarily in the form of settlement. The high settlement area is to meet the high rate of population growth and urbanization Bandar Lampung Regional Development
Planning Agency, 2008.
2.4 Pattern of regional development and function of the City
Bandar Lampung as the capital city of Lampung Province and the center of government, with its high population growth and rapid development, has a very
significant effect to the utilization of space and also to the surrounding regions. Zoning of area in Bandar Lampung is therefore become a strategic issue in the City
Spatial Planning RTRW. The current RTRW is RTRW for 2005-2015 Bandar Lampung Regulation No. 4 2004. This RTRW provides:
- Guidelines on management of protected and utilized areas - Guidelines on management of city area
- Guidelines on development of production and residential areas - Guidelines on facilities and infrastructures
- Guidelines on development of priority areas
2.4.1 City Are Sections BWK
Bandar Lampung is divided into 8 eight City Area Sections BWK in which each section has main and supporting functions. The reasons for the division are:
• Functions and dominance of activities in different regions of the city;
• The similarity of land use;
• The similarity of population density and building density;
• Geometric sizearea;
8 •
Existing physical and administrative boundaries; •
Limitation in service coverage capacity; •
Space structure.

management areas in the zoning of Bandar Lampung, namely:
2.4.2 Water Absorption Area
Water absorption management plan for Bandar Lampung is divided into 6 six zone areas:
a. Zone Area 1 Recharged Area
Zone Area 1 provides a fairly high contribution to fill deep ground water reserves. In this zone area, strict area controls need to be conducted. Areas included in this zone
are Kemiling and West Teluk Betung Sub-districts.

b. Zone Area 2 Buffer Area
