Land conditions in several locations in the Upper River Basin (DAS) of Batang Hari downstream have been damaged as indicated by the existence of Open Access Land (OAL) due to illegal gold mining left by the community without management. If this condition is allowed to continue it will affect the destruction of Batang Hari watershed which is one of the priority watershed based on SK.328 / Menhut II / 2009 on Stipulation of DAS Priority for RPJMN Year 2010 - 2014. Therefore a study aimed to identify the location Open Access Land and some recovery alternatives. The study used literature study and technical document tracking conducted in October - November 2017. The OAL location uses data from the monitoring results of West Sumatra Provincial Environment Office 2016-2017. From the results of the study it is known that there is OAL in Solok Selatan District at 6 locations in Sangir and Sungai Batang Hari Subdistricts. While the location of OAL in Dharmasraya Regency there are 5 locations in Pulau Pujung and Sitiung Subdistrict.
