The problem of household waste/waste is no stranger to Indonesian society. This happens because of the lack of socialization in the community about how important it is to keep the environment clean. The Kogoro Settlement, Tanjungpinang City, is one of the areas experiencing household garbage/waste problems, which until now have not found a clear solution to this problem. Residential areas, which are almost entirely above sea level, exacerbate the situation in the area due to the large amount of garbage and waste carried by sea water. This problem must be resolved as soon as possible to maintain sustainability and the ecosystem runs smoothly. Therefore the government of Tanjungpinang City issued Regional Regulation No. 03 of 2015 concerning waste management, which aims to solve various problems and provide the concept of handling management as well as sanctions for those who violate these rules. In this study, we will examine the policies implemented by the Tanjungpinang City government in dealing with environmental problems. Using the Normative-Empirical method, this research will delve deeper into these environmental problems which include the existence of sanctions, ideas, rules in Tanjungpinang including the Kosgoro settlement. However, in implementing these rules, the Government of Kosgoro did not implement them as they should. This is supported by the people who are only given advice to throw garbage into trash cans which are quite far above the settlement due to the narrow access road in the Kosgoro area. Lack of government attention makes people less aware of managing household waste and waste.

Research related to earthquakes in Indonesia continues to develop. This has resulted in several points such as new earthquake hazard maps and the latest regulations related to earthquake-resistant building planning, resulting in the building planning process having to follow the latest applicable regulations. The purpose of this study is to analyze changes in SNI, structural dimension requirements, reinforcement requirements, and structural behavior and internal forces due to the application of SNI 1726:2012 and SNI 1726:2019 in a building. The research method used was to conduct a literature study on the changes from SNI 1726:2012 to SNI 1726:2019 using the SNI 2847:2019 planning which will be used in the structural analysis. The results obtained from this study show that there are differences in the earthquake maps used in SNI 1726:2012 and SNI 1726:2019, there are differences in parameters in SNI 1726:2012 and SNI 1726:2019 which result in an increase in the forces acting on the structure which affects the need for reinforcement. Structural planning is carried out by following SNI 1726:2019 and SNI 2847:2019, for existing buildings that have been built based on SNI 1726:2012, it is necessary to carry out a re-examination or assessment to determine the condition of the existing building in relation to earthquake in Indonesia.
