The Urgency of Setting Environmental Quality Standards by the Governor in the Context of Environmental Protection and Management in the Region

The environment is a crucial instrument in human life because it is where human life takes place. The environment is where humans develop and reproduce. Additionally, the environment is also a vital instrument in sustainable development within a country's region. The increasing critical land issues due to surpassing environmental quality standards indicate efforts towards environmental destruction, particularly in terms of wastewater standards. Humans fundamentally need natural resources such as land, water, and air. Therefore, if these components of natural resources are polluted or damaged, they can affect human life sustainability. Regarding wastewater quality standards, the Governor, as the government, is obliged to take action by establishing wastewater quality standards according to laws and regulations. However, if environmental quality standard parameters cannot adjust to the conditions of that region's environment, the Governor is obligated to tighten the determination of environmental quality standard parameters.
