Abstract

Badung Sangeh Village has an area of 4.5 km2, located in Abiansemal District, Badung Regency, with a population of 2,322 people with a density of 1,084 people / km2 . The clean water supply system in this village uses water from the local drinking water company in Badung Regency with a 100% service percentage consisting of 967 customers. Based on the technical data of the local drinking water company in Badung Regency, there are 2 large water bodies with a discharge above 10 liters/second, namely Gerana springs (22 liters/second) which then become the source of water to the Regional Drinking Water Company in Badung Regency and springs Mumbul (± 125 liters/second) which is a source for irrigation, drinking water, holy water for religious purposes and a place for purification or self-cleaning. This research was conducted by collecting secondary data in the local drinking water company in Badung Regency as well as measuring the instantaneous discharge of the spring water and testing the quality of water directly. The analysis was carried out on water use patterns, raw water quality and the active participation of the community and government in carrying out water conservation in a sustainable manner. The results showed that the people of Sangeh Village with cool conditions, their monthly water usage for one customer is around 18.5 m3. Water quality testing shows that the water quality meets the requirements as raw water. Even though all people have a water connection at their house, not a few of the people of Sangeh and its surroundings still take water from the Mumbul spring for drinking water consumption. There are several reasons that they convey related to taking water from the Mumbul spring, such as the taste of the water is better, it has been around since a long time ago, the place to get the water is clean and easy to reach and the fees for collecting the water are donations. Based on the very important function of the Mumbul spring related to culture and religion in the village of Sangeh, with the help of the Badung Regency Government, several facilities have been arranged and improved such as parking, cleaning/painting areas and the arrangement of the Panca Tirta Temple in the location of the spring. As a reinforcement of water conservation in Sangeh Village, it has also been supported by customary regulations /awig-awig regarding the system and rules of taking water for various purposes. This integrated conservation model provides various benefits in addition to preserving the Mumbul spring as well as for the welfare of the surrounding community.
