This study was conducted to address contamination risks in Refill Drinking Water Depot (DAMIU) operations when sanitation, equipment maintenance, and quality control are not consistently implemented. This emphasizes the critical importance of systematic risk monitoring and review processes to ensure water quality and safety. The research aims to analyze the implementation of risk monitoring procedures, identify operational risks at each processing stage, and evaluate the effectiveness of risk mitigation strategies at Depot Isi Ulang Air Galon Barokah. A descriptive qualitative approach was employed, utilizing data collection techniques including in-depth interviews, direct field observations, and documentation analysis. The findings reveal that monitoring and risk review processes are conducted routinely, encompassing raw water quality checks, equipment sanitation protocols, and customer gallon container inspections. No significant risks were identified during the study period, as potential hazards such as microbiological contamination and equipment malfunction were effectively prevented through timely filter replacement and daily equipment cleaning procedures. Overall, the depot's risk management system operates effectively and consistently maintains water quality standards, ensuring product safety for consumers.

Drinking water produced by drinking water depots (DAM) is an alternative to meeting the drinking water needs of the community. Practicality and relatively cheaper prices when compared to bottled drinking water, become the main attraction for the community to consume drinking water produced by DAM. This study aims to determine the description of sanitation and bacteriological quality in refill drinking water depots in Kebun Cengkeh, Batu Merah Village, Sirimau Kecematan, Ambon City. The type of research used in this study is descriptive which aims to determine the content of E.coli bacteria and sanitation conditions at refill drinking water depots in Kebun Cengkeh, Batu Merah Village, Sirimau District, Ambon City. The population in this sample is the entire drinking water in all refill depots located in Kebun Cengkeh, Batu Merah Village, Sirimau District, Ambon City. The sample in this study was a portion of the refill drinking water depot. The results showed that 3 DAMIUs had a total score of <70 for sanitary inspection assessment and 3 DAMIUs contained E. coli >0 MPN/100 ml. 3 DAMIUs did not meet the sanitary inspection requirements and 3 DAMIUs did not meet the bacteriological requirements.

According to data from the Bungo District Health Service for 2021, the number of refill drinking water depots (DAMIU) has reached 283. In the working area of the Air Gemuruh Community Health Center there are 26 DAMIU that meet the requirements, 3 (11.5%) and those that do not meet the requirements there are 88.5%. The aim of this research is to determine the relationship between sanitation of premises and equipment and the presence of Escherichia Coli bacteria at the refill drinking water depot in the Air Gemuruh Health Center work area in 2023.This research is a quantitative type with a cross sectional design. Samples were taken using the total sampling method, totaling 35 DAMIU. Univariate and bivariate analysis used Fisher's test. This study found that it could not be concluded that sanitation of premises and equipment had a relationship with the presence of Escherichia Coli bacteria in the Air Gemuruh Health Center Working Area. It is concluded that the variables of sanitation of premises and equipment cannot be concluded that there is a relationship because the data produced is constant.

Concusion, there is a relationship between knowledge, attitudes, and employee training with the application of sanitary hygiene at refill drinking water depots (DAMIU) in the Working Area of ​​the Kenali Besar Health Center    

Depot Air Minum Isi Ulang (DAMIU) hadir sebagai solusi praktis dan ekonomis untuk memenuhi kebutuhan air minum. Peran pengawasan kebijakan lintas sektor menjadi pintu utama bagi pemerintah dalam melindungi konsumen depot air minum. Tujuan penelitian ini adalah untuk mendeskripsikan evaluasi pengendalian lintas sektoral dan mengidentifikasi faktor pendukung dan penghambat evaluasi pengendalian lintas sektoral dalam menjaga kualitas produk air depot isi ulang. Metode yang digunakan adalah pendekatan deskriptif kualitatif, yaitu penelitian yang bermaksud untuk memahami fenomena apa yang dialami oleh subjek penelitian secara holistik. Hasil penelitian evaluasi yang dilakukan menunjukkan bahwa pengawasan yang dilakukan oleh Dinas Kesehatan dan lintas sektor terkait depot air minum di Kabupaten Sumbawa sudah dilaksanakan namun belum optimal. Hal ini dipengaruhi oleh terbatasnya kendala dalam melakukan pengawasan, kurangnya ketersediaan data terkini dan kurangnya kesadaran pelaku usaha DAMIU dalam mematuhi ketentuan mengenai baku mutu air minum yang ditetapkan pemerintah. Dinas Kesehatan Kabupaten Sumbawa sebagai otoritas bersama lintas sektor terkait diharapkan terus melakukan pengawasan untuk memberikan perhatian khusus terhadap sanitasi dan kualitas produk air minum isi ulang serta mendata kembali jumlah DAMIU di Kabupaten Sumbawa karena masih banyak DAMIU yang belum mengantongi izin atau melakukan pengujian produk air isi ulang (sertifikasi) secara berkala.
