The implementation of the Standard Inpatient Class (KRIS) policy presents challenges for hospitals in ensuring equitable service delivery. Organizational readiness depends not only on adequate physical infrastructure but also on an adaptive organizational culture and strong clinical leadership to guide change. As a referral hospital, RS BM must ensure alignment across organizational components to meet KRIS standards sustainably. This study analyzes the influence of infrastructure quality and clinical leadership on organizational readiness for KRIS implementation, with organizational culture as an intervening variable. A quantitative cross-sectional design was used, involving 136 healthcare and medical personnel working in the inpatient units of RS Bhakti Mulia. Data were collected through structured questionnaires and analyzed using Structural Equation Modeling–Partial Least Square (SEM-PLS) to examine relationships among variables. Infrastructure quality and organizational culture significantly and positively affect organizational readiness. Clinical leadership, while not directly influencing readiness, has a significant positive effect on organizational culture. KRIS readiness at RS BM is shaped by infrastructure quality, clinical leadership, and organizational culture, with culture acting as the main mediator. The hospital shows strong readiness but still faces gaps in progress monitoring, inpatient room layout and privacy, leadership direction, and team participation. Strengthening monitoring mechanisms, improving room design according to KRIS standards, enhancing clinical leadership capacity, and fostering a collaborative organizational culture are essential to support comprehensive and sustainable KRIS implementation

Fly ash and bottom ash (FABA) are combustion residues from coal-fired power plants. Following the issuance of Government Regulation No. 22 of 2021, FABA is no longer classified as hazardous and toxic waste (B3). However, FABA must still be managed properly due to its potential to cause pollution through leachate generated if leaks occur in the FABA disposal area. This study evaluates the lining and drainage systems in the FABA disposal area at PT. PLN Nusantara Power UP Paiton to ensure that leachate does not contaminate surrounding groundwater. The research employs descriptive qualitative and quantitative methods, collecting secondary data to assess the structure and pollution control systems in the FABA disposal area at PT. PLN Nusantara Power UP Paiton. The data includes the disposal area structure and water quality from monitoring wells. Analysis results indicate that the FABA disposal area lining system operates effectively and in compliance with regulations, successfully containing leachate movement and preventing seepage. This is supported by pH, Fe, Hg, and turbidity levels in groundwater from monitoring wells remaining within safe limits. Additionally, the presence of a runoff pond helps contain surface runoff during heavy rain, keeping overflow water under control. Overall, the disposal area structure and leachate management system at PT. PLN Nusantara Power UP Paiton function well, but routine monitoring must continue to ensure no seepage occurs, preventing leachate from contaminating the surrounding environment as an early preventive measure to maintain environmental quality and regulatory compliance.

This study discusses in depth the factors that cause and efforts to overcome the crime of trafficking in persons (TPPO) in the jurisdiction of the East Nusa Tenggara Police (NTT), which is known to have the highest number of trafficking cases in Indonesia. Using a juridical-empirical approach through interviews with nine resource persons consisting of law enforcement officials, women and child protection institutions, and the community, this study shows that although the substance of the law is quite adequate, its implementation is still weak and has not been able to cause a deterrent effect for perpetrators. Limited human resources, supporting facilities, and weak coordination between institutions are the main obstacles in the law enforcement process. Countermeasures are carried out through three main aspects, namely preemptive (counseling, socialization, and community economic empowerment), preventive (port supervision, formation of a monitoring team for illegal job vacancies, and cross-sector cooperation), and repressive (investigation, arrest, and legal process against perpetrators). This research also emphasizes the importance of increasing the capacity of the apparatus, synergy between agencies, and public education as sustainable steps in reducing the number of trafficking and protecting victims as a whole.

Energy efficiency in water heaters is a crucial factor in ship operational environments due to limited electricity resources that rely on generators. This study aims to design and build an IoT-based water heater monitoring system with an innovative heat storage medium in the form of a mixture of silica sand and paraffin wax to improve thermal efficiency. Although previous studies have developed temperature monitoring and control systems in IoT-based water heaters, this study specifically fills this gap by analyzing the performance of adding silica sand to overcome the low thermal conductivity of paraffin wax. Using the Research and Development (R&D) method, this system was built with an ESP32 microcontroller as the control center, a DS18B20 temperature sensor for accurate measurements, and the Blynk and Google Sheets platforms for real-time monitoring and data recording. Performance testing was conducted by comparing the water heating rate between pure paraffin wax media and the mixed media. The results showed that the monitoring system functioned reliably, and the main finding proved that the addition of silica sand to paraffin wax significantly increased heating efficiency. This was clearly seen from the reduction in time required to raise the water temperature to 40°C, from 2.5 hours to only 1 hour in the second heating cycle. The results of this study indicate that the integration of silica sand and paraffin wax media with IoT technology can increase the efficiency of water heaters and provide an innovative solution for energy-efficient and environmentally friendly temperature control.

Guaranteeing the geotechnical stability of slopes is an absolute prerequisite for the sustainability of open pit mining operations, considering the potential for multidimensional losses due to slope failure. The specific geological conditions at PIT B1 PT. Pancaran Surya Abadi, which is composed of sedimentary rocks (coal, sandstone, and claystone), are susceptible to degradation and softening, especially due to high rainfall that causes an increase in pore water pressure and a decrease in rock shear strength. This study aims to analyze the stability of highwall slopes using the Morgenstern-Price Method to determine the Safety Factor (SFF) value according to Ministerial Decree number 1827 K/30/MEM/2018, and continued with a semi-quantitative risk analysis. The analysis results show that the initial slope has a static SFF of 0.77 (Not Safe). After redesign, the recommended optimal single slope geometry is: sandstone (Height 5 m, Angle 20°, Berm 5 m) and claystone (Height 10 m, Angle 60°, Berm 5 m). This redesign resulted in a FK of 1.34 (Safe). Sensitivity analysis to groundwater level rise (GTL) showed that the GTL value remained safe (GTL ≥1.30) up to a 30% increase in GTL. However, a 40% to 80% increase in GTL caused the GTL to decrease (1.28–1.21), classified as Medium Risk. A 100% increase in GTL drastically reduced the GTL to 1.05, classified as High Risk. This study emphasizes the need for close monitoring and additional drainage to maintain the long-term stability of slopes under the influence of rainfall.
