Abstract

The development of infrastructure is one of the impacts of factory activities, besides the existence of the factory has a negative influence on the surrounding community such as environmental problems, roads that are always traversed by industrial cars causing damage, garbage which is always the main cause of various environmental and health problems. Environmental influences that have the potential to arise are not only from plantation activities, but also crude palm oil (CPO) mills due to the presence of waste. If not managed properly, the waste has the potential to pollute the environment. Of course, it must be studied further so that it can be identified how good management is, especially to reduce the impact on the environment. The purpose of this study is to find out what are the effects of the existence of a Crude Palm Oil Factory on the Settlement Environment in Winangun Village, Bukal District, Buol Regency. The research method used by the author in this study is a quantitative research method. From the results of the analysis of the influence of the palm oil industry on residential environmental conditions, it shows that the existence of the palm oil industry has a very positive impact on the solid waste indicator. After the activities of the palm oil industry, these two indicators are better than before. As for road and drainage indicators, the existence of the palm oil industry has a negative impact, this can be seen from the condition of roads that are still damaged, drainage is getting worse because it still causes flooding and there is no improvement in waste management. In managing the residential environment in Winangun village, it is necessary to build an asphalt road which is the main route for vehicles to industrial locations, the thickness of the road and the road foundation must be planned properly by considering the weight of the vehicles passing on it. Repair drainage channels to minimize flooding. Waste management is needed to keep the environment clean.
