Abstract
Lack of public awareness in maintaining environmental sanitation will result in
pollution of the coastal environment. This situation can produce a variety of
environmental sanitation problems in coastal settlements by high community
activities on the beach and household discharges that cannot be accommodated and
recycled by nature. This research was conducted in Pasir Subdistrict, Pariaman
Tengah Subdistrict, Pariaman City, which aims to determine the condition of
environmental sanitation and overcome its impact on public health in the Pasir
Subdistrict. The method used in this research is descriptive method. The population in
this study was 379 households in 7 RTs in Pasir District. The results showed that: 1)
the number of household heads who had access to a family toilet / shared latrine in
accordance with technical requirements (having a goose neck toilet connected to a
septic tank) was 104 households out of 216 households, 2) the condition of
environmental drainage in the location of the settlement can not be said to be good
because it does not meet the technical requirements for the operation of the urban
drainage system, 3) the family has not been connected technically with household
sewage and drainage, this has an impact on environmental health which can cause
various diseases. From the results of the research that has been carried out it can be
concluded that environmental sanitation in the Kelurahan Pasir is in a bad condition,
seen from drinking water sources, family latrines, SPAL (sewerage), and the
regularity of the building does not meet technical requirements because the
community does not know the importance of maintaining environment sanitation. The
impact arising from the lack of awareness of environmental sanitation maintenance is
the emergence of various diseases such as diarrhea, diarrhea, typhus, dengue fever
and others
