Tingkat Resiliensi Masyarakat dalam Menghadapi Banjir Rob di Kawasan Pesisir Eretan Kabupaten Indramayu

Abstract. The community affected by the tidal flood has started to adapt to their environment and find various ways to cope to survive in areas impacted by the tidal flood. The tidal flood disaster in the Eretan coastal area has worsened and continues to recur, causing damage not only to physical buildings and infrastructure but also impacting the social and economic activities of the community. The floods also damage access roads and several vehicles, leading the community to implement mitigation efforts by raising house foundations and building door barriers. The aim of this research is to assess the level of resilience of the community against the tidal floods in the Eretan coastal area. To assess the resilience of the community affected by the tidal floods, data sources were collected through questionnaires, document reviews, and observations. The analytical method used is Likert scale analysis with scoring and descriptive analysis. The results of the analysis indicate that the level of resilience of the community in the Eretan Coast is categorized as High at 76% and the sustainability of the lives of the coastal communities in Eretan is also high. This research recommends that the breakwater structure should be optimized and maintained properly, the rehabilitation and expansion of mangrove forests to enhance natural defenses against waves and abrasion should be undertaken, and permanent concrete river retaining walls should be constructed along riverbanks to prevent river overflow into settlements, as well as to create sustainable economic incentives.

Tujuan dari penelitian ini adalah untuk menilai tingkat resiliensi masyarakat terhadap banjir rob kawasan Pesisir Eretan.  Untuk menilai resiliensi masyarakat yang terdampak banjir rob, sumber data dikumpulkan melalui kuesioner, telaah dokumen, dan observasi. Maka metode analisis yang digunakan yaitu analisis skala likert dengan skoring dan deskriptif analisis. Hasil analisis menunjukkan bahwa tingkat resiliensi masyarakat di Pesisir Eretan berada pada kategori Tinggi 76%. Hasil penelitian ini merekomendasikan agar struktur breakwater/pemecah gelombang dioptimalkan dan dipelihara dengan baik, rehabilitasi dan perluasan hutan mangrove untuk meningkatkan pertahanan alami terhadap gelombang dan abrasi, dan membangun dinding penahan sungai berbahan beton permanen di bantaran sungai untuk mencegah luapan air sungai masuk ke permukiman, serta menciptakan insentif ekonomi berkelanjutan.
