Indonesia’s rapid economic growth, increasing populations, and trends in developing and urbanizing environments are leading to potential conflicts as more users claim the same water resources.

This publication summarizes the strengths, challenges, opportunities, and risks characterizing the prospects for integrated water resources management in Indonesia. Integrated water resources management planning is essential for sustainable growth.

Understanding these conditions may provide decision makers with more insight to optimize the country’s water resources potential using available and state-of-the-art methodologies and tools for river basin planning. The publication discusses all aspects of basin planning based on experiences from one of Indonesia’s most complex and strategic river basins.

Rehabilitation West Tarum Channel is one of the projects under the Integrated Citarum Water Resources Management Investment Program / ICWRMIP conducted by the Directorate General of Water Resources (DG SDA), the Ministry of Public Works. This information booklet was updated in October 2013.

Under ICWRMIP program, there are 11 pilot demonstration activities carried out with communities in the upper Citarum River. These activities include the production of organic fertilizer, coffee planting for conservation, nursery crops for revegetation, organic farming, biogas using animal manure, school safety and disaster preparedness, environmental education curriculum, solid waste management, riparian reforestation, and aerial photo documentation from upstream to downstream of Citarum River Basin.

Upper Citarum Erosion and Sedimentation report is an appendix to the Strategic Spatial Planning Report, (May 2012) prepared by the ICWRMIP Technical Assistance Package B (TA 7189-INO) consultant team. The report established the methodology to simulate the peak flow response (sensitivity) of catchments to changes in land-use using a GIS based approach, providing sufficient detail necessary for zoning; followed by application to the relevant catchments in the 6 Cis river basin territory, as well as preparation of zoning synthesis for the upper Citarum basin (upstream of Saguling).
