Abstract

Limestone mining activities have a negative impact on the community around the mining location. This impact comes from material transportation activities by transport trucks. The trucks transport materials using public roads. The use of roads results in damage as a result of increased truck traffic and the number of overloaded trucks. The aim of this research is to analyze the cost of compensation funds that will be received by the affected communities. Using the questionnaire method, researchers distributed 66 questionnaires. The number of sample respondents was calculated using the Harry King nomogram formula with an error rate of 10%. To analyze compensation funds using the Willingness To Accept (WTA) approach. Of the 66 respondents, only 62 respondents were willing to accept compensation funds, 4 respondents were not willing to accept it on the grounds that the funds provided were not commensurate with the impact they felt. Using the WTA approach, the estimated average WTA value is IDR 63,000/month/KK and from the estimated average value, the total WTA value that must be paid by the company is IDR 3,900,000 per month. Compensation costs are included in production costs so that they can be a consideration for companies in environmental management.
