Abstract

Municipal solid waste (MSW) management has become common problem in regional development especially in developing countries. In Indonesia, waste management still relies on landfilling system which generate both positive and negative externalities. Odour pollution is one of the negative externalities. This study aimed to find out the willingness to accept (WTA) of compensation funds by the community around TPA Jabon, Sidoarjo Regency. Primary data were conducted through questionnaire from 180 respondents scattered in four villages directly affected to the existence of TPA Jabon. Mean WTA of all society toward compensation of TPA Jabon existence was IDR 55,424/household per month. The highest mean WTA, IDR 65,033/household per month, occurs in Semambung Village. The second-highest mean WTA, IDR 56,765/ household per month, occurs in Tambak Kalisogo Village. Balongtani Village generate the lowest mean WTA among others, IDR 47,633/ household per month. This mean WTA is higher than both compensation set by te local government (IDR 45,000/household per month) and compensation that actually received by the household (IDR 22,486/household per month). The objection emerge in society because of wide gap between WTA and what they actually received. Village government need to improve the equal policy distribution of compensation with proportionated distribution.
