Abstract

The main problem in this study concerns the responsibility of the Regional Government of South Sulawesi Province in Granting Mining Permits for Rock Quarry Materials and Controlling Illegal Mining in Gowa Regency. The research uses the empirical juridical law method, meaning that a study examines problems according to the facts that occur in the field, studies of legislation, sources from archives, official documents regarding mining permits. The next step is to classify according to the problem under study, then the data is compiled and analyzed using a descriptive method. The results of this study indicate that the responsibility of the Regional Government of South Sulawesi Province in granting mining permits for rock minerals has been stipulated in Law No. 23 of 2014 concerning Regional Government. Thus the provincial government took over the Mining Business Permit (IUP) from the hands of the district government through a one-stop integrated service. As for controlling illegal mining, which is currently rife in Gowa Regency, the government and police have made maximum efforts to eradicate this unlicensed mining by giving a warning of strict sanctions.
