expressly states: if overlapping land determination/use cannot be prevented, then mining
priority rights must take precedence. This means, in Law No. 11 of 1967, there is no
choice for land rights holders other than to accept the presence of mining business license
holders. In fact, holders of land rights who obstruct or interfere with legitimate mining
businesses are threatened with criminal penalties.
Mining Law No. 4 of 2009 concerning Mineral and Coal Mining (Minerba) and
Law No. 3 of 2020 concerning Amendments to Law No. 4 of 2009, take a declining
stance. Articles 134 to 138 of the Mining Law clearly emphasize that mining companies
(IUP and IUPK) must first settle land rights with land rights holders in the area to be
worked on, the implementation of which can be carried out gradually as needed.
Furthermore, Article 17 of Law Number 11 of 2020 related to changes in several
provisions in Law Number 26 of 2007 concerning Spatial Planning there are changes in
articles 61, 62 and 69 which in essence everyone is obliged to obey spatial planning and
for people who in carrying out their business and / or activities use space without having
approval for the suitability of space use which results in changes in the function of space
punishable with a maximum imprisonment of 3 (three) years and a maximum fine of IDR
1,000,000,000 (one billion rupiah). Article 100 of Government Regulation Number 21 of
2021 concerning the Implementation of Spatial Planning, states that the implementation
of the Suitability of Spatial Utilization Activities for business activities is obtained
through OSS, and after obtaining the Suitability of Spatial Utilization Activities, Business
Actors can apply for business licenses in accordance with the provisions of laws and
regulations. Furthermore, Article 4 and Article 5 of Government Regulation Number 5 of
2021 concerning the Implementation of Risk-Based Business Licensing, which states that
to start and carry out business activities, business actors must meet the basic requirements
of business licensing and risk-based business licensing. The basic requirements for
business licensing include the suitability of space utilization activities, environmental
approvals, building approvals and functional feasibility certificates.
With the regulations in Law No. 3 of 2020 and Job Creation Law No. 11 of 2020
along with their derivative rules, mining permit holders before carrying out mining
activities (production operations) must first solve land rights issues. If it is in a forest area,
the permit holder must take care of a forest area loan and use permit (PPKH). Meanwhile,
if the mining concession area is in another use area (APL), the permit holder must settle
with the owner of the land rights, with a business-to-business mechanism.
Overlapping Mining Permits with Land Rights
As part of the national spatial planning, the Mining Area (WP) is the basis for the
determination of mining activities determined by the Government after coordinating with
local governments and consulting with the House of Representatives of the Republic of
Indonesia. Mineral and Coal mining activities include part or all of the stages of activities
in the framework, management and exploitation of Minerals and Coal which include
general investigation, exploration, feasibility studies, construction, mining, processing
and / or refining or development and / or utilization, transportation and sales, as well as
post-mining activities, where in the implementation of these activities can be carried out
