2 The Ministry of Environment has issued the environmental programs, especially for
controlling water pollution content from industry through Clean River Program Prokasih.
The aims of Prokasih are to improve the river water quality and to protect the river function based on the class usage. But at the time of study, the Government still doesn’t have a
sound application system instrument supporting for monitoring toward achieving the goal by efficiency, effectiveness and powerfully monitoring to the industrial pollution, etc.
This study is aimed to develop an industrial wastewater monitoring application system, called IWMS System Industrial Wastewater Monitoring Support System. IWMS
System should give some spatial information to support the government decision for the industry monitoring Spatial Decision Support System. It is designed upon industrial
profile, pollution monitoring reports and the Government Regulation in the format of Water Quality Standard.
In the study also, the source of pollutant will be bounded only from industry considering that they are giving the highest contribution of water pollution in the river. The
other reason, most of the industries discharge some waste water to the river everyday, and also some industry still didn’t have waste-water treatment plan or may be not installed yet.
The focus of research only on industry and its pollution in the Upper Citarum River Basin as a case study, but should be replicated to another river basin, especially in Indonesia.
1.2 Objectives
The objectives of this study are: 1
To develop the DSS of industrial wastewater monitoring system as an application system to support the Government Decision.
3 2
To implement the IWMS as a prototype of the system
1.3. Problem Identification
Main issues for industrial wastewater pollutions are: 1
Most of the industry discharges its waste water to the river without any controllable measure.
2 Majority of peoples rely on a river as water resource supplies to fulfill their daily need,
as a consequence they are very concern about river water quantity and quality. 3
The river must be protected and conserved by the government, through the control of industrial activities by imposing regulation and do regular monitoring.
4 At the time of study, the government didn’t have a sound application system to monitor
industrial waste water pollution in the location of study. According the above problem identifications, the government needs some system
application to support the decision for controlling the industrial wastewater and their activities.
1.4. Location
Upper Citarum River Basin is selected as the study area, due to: 1
The river is one of the high priority river basin in Indonesia, 2
The region cover the Capital City of West Java, which have a lot of the important activities
3 Many industries are located in this river basin, along with the negative impacts which
are should be managed.
4 4
The subject of study not too wide, and can be replicated to the other river basin especially in Indonesia.
5 There is a special management to achieve the sustainable development, without
disruption to the economic growth in this area.

1.5. Outcome
The result of this system development is software to support decision related to industrial wastewater monitoring in the environmental management by using both spatial
and non spatial attribute data information. And also to support the government including local government and some industries related to make better planning and arranging for
industrial development.
