Abstract

Juwana Port is located at Silugonggo River channel which has been serving as shipping lane, port activities and ship moorings since the 18th century. Juwana Harbor facilitates vessels under 7 gross tonage (GT). Currently, the capacity of fishing vessels has been developed to reach 35 to 300 GT. The increasing activity in the Silugonggo River channel requires enchanced protection for the sustainability of the channel and waters. The preservation of the Silugonggo River channel takes precedence in safeguarding the maritime environment, encompassing all endeavors aimed at preventing and mitigating pollution stemming from vessels and shipping-related activities. This research was performed to formulate alternative strategies and priorities for maritime environmental protection in Silugonggo River channel. Analytical hierarchy process (AHP) model was employed in data analysis to determine the priority scale. The results of the analysis showed alternative strategies for the management and protection of the maritime environment that include synchronizing the roles and responsibilities of stakeholders, developing policies related to the maritime environment, monitoring the activities of community fishing enterprises, as well as the construction of anchor pools and supporting infrastructure.
