competing water uses o Sustainability indicatorConcluding Remarks
SOME BACKGROUND INFO
Present competing water demands are for domestic, industry, and irrigated agriculture water uses;
Indonesia water resources is relatively abundance with annual rainfall of about 2800 mm, however water availability for the different intensive uses is often in critical conditions that needs urgent resource management attention.
SOME BACKGROUND
Population pressure, especially in Java island and other developing areas;
degraded natural resources and increased extreme weather events have caused extensive water related disasters;
increased pollution and exposure to water- and vector-borne diseases;
decreased water availability and quality;Natural resources management issues.
Local government regulations tend to exploit natural resources, without considering carrying capacity and good management practices.

RECENT CHANGES OF INDONESIAFOREST RESOURCES (INTERPRETATIONFROM LANDSAT IMAGES) :
Degraded forest land is 59,62 million ha. Deforestation rate is 1,09 million ha /annum
(2000-2006). Degradation was severe and un-controlable
especially during reformation/autonomous era, as permit was not acknowledged, illegal logging, forest encroachment and conversion to other uses
(Source: Forestry Department, 2008)
Natural forests in Java have declined substancially in the last decade:
10 million ha (1800an)1 million ha (1989)0.4 million ha (2005)
(Baplan, Dephut RI, 2007)
The water resources problems in Indonesia
• Anthropogenic influences: Change of land use and land covers ‐ degradation of forest land
• Water pollutions and deterioration of environmental qualities
• Decrease in water resources availability• Vicious circle of poverty as threat to water resources degradation
STUDY APPROACH: DEFINING THE HUMAN-ENVIRONMENTAL SUSTAINABILITY
DEFINITIONS OF SUSTAINABILITY
“…development that meets the needs of the present without compromising the ability of future generations to meet their own needs.” [the Brundtland report, 1987)]
“…to declare a national policy which will encourage productive and enjoyable harmony between man and his environment; to promote efforts which will prevent or eliminate damage to the environment and biosphere and stimulate the health and welfare of man.” [the National Environmental Policy Act of 1969]

SUSTAINABILITY INDICATOR FOR JATILUHUR/ CITARUM BASIN: CARRYING CAPACITY
Sustainability of the Citarum basin can be determined by calculating the carrying capacity using simple water supply-demand analysis through balancing the water availability for the total water demands and directed by the mass conservation law.
Estimated water availability in 2010 and 2030:
average river discharge 182.3 m3/s (2010) and 212.5 m3/s (2030)
trend/rate of change+ 1.51 m3/s (1922-1980)
ESTIMATED WATER DEMAND IN 2010 AND 2030:
Estimated water demand in 2010 is 204.5 m3/s with the different uses as follows:o paddy irrigation 175 m3/s (partly satisfied from Jatiuhur
reservoir with effective storage 2100 billion m3) fisheries 10 m3/s electric power 9.5 m3/s (non consumptive use) DMI 20 m3/s
Water demand in 2030 is (175 + 10~100) m3/s or + 0.5 ~5 m3/s/year based on incremental change as follows: paddy irrigation - 2000 ha/year equivalent to: - 2 m3/s/yr fisheries + (0.5 ~ 2) m3/s/yr electric power ~ DMI + (2 ~ 5) m3/s/yr
WATER SUSTAINABILITY OFJATILUHUR/CITARUM BASIN BY 2030 Apparently, even at present condition in 2010, carrying
capacity of Citarum basin was overshot already at demand level of 204.5 m3/s exceeding the average water available at 182.3 m3/s, and the balance was achieved only by sacrificing the competing water demands
The likely sacrifice was through restricting the agricultural water demand, either by improved efficiency in irrigation water use or allocation reduction.
In the long term, irrigation water allocation might need to be reduced even more to 60% only of available water to satisfy the increasing water demands from other users by 2030.
CONCLUSIONS1) The water and food nexus resources of the
Jatiluhur/Citarum basin have been exhausted for the different uses of available water resources, even at present conditions. Therefore compromises among the competing water uses are required to accomplish sustainable management for the water-food nexus;
2) Integration of the different components of nexus resources with different measures must be represented into a common unit of measure;
3) Successful development of sustainability indicator as a method of nexus approach need to consider satisfying the basic conservation law of mass as sufficiency condition.
