CONCLUSIONS AND RECOMMENDATIONS
Based on the research and testing conducted on the availability of water
reserves in PALI District, obtained some conclusions are described in
the following points:
-
Changes in rainfall affect the availability of water reserves in PALI.
The higher the rainfall will be the higher the water reserves in the
area. But note also the geological structure in the area. The steeper
the area the water reserves will be less and less due to the run off
so that the water reservoir in the soil surface is not accommodated.
-
Through future projections can be estimated areas that become the
strategic zone of future development of Talang Ubi and Penukal Utara
sub-districts. Areas with high populations have implications for
increased water demand
-
Referring to the geological data contained in the sub-district
Penukal, Penukal Utara, Talang Ubi, Tanah Abang and Abab, the PALI
District Government can make early prevention in the area by not doing
illegal logging so that there is no run off in large amount. In
addition, the control of the population in an area needs to be done so
that the population is not only focused on one or two areas that can
cause the demand for water availability increases so that the
environment balance is maintained so that the impact of water shortage
can be overcome.
