The potential in the Rungan river is experiencing degradation amidst the rise of illegal mining in the middle of the river. At the same time, the people of the Marang sub-district are mostly fishermen. Dependence on the river ecosystem makes the activities of the Marang sub-district community have economic problems that are not yet independent, plus a low level of development. This activity aims to try to increase the economic income of local communities that utilize the potential of natural resources around them. The method of implementing this activity is from outreach and mentoring to practice. The implementation of this community service was carried out for four months, from July to November 2022. The socialization participants were attended by the Lurah, sub-district staff, babies, babinkatibmas, youth organizations and target groups. The target group is the Marang sub-district community of 50 participants in the assistance, which consists of productive people, namely fishermen and breeder groups and not yet productive people, namely Pokdarwis and housewife groups. So the total number of participants was 67 people. This activity results in the Marang sub-district community being economically independent without only depending on the river ecosystem. The conclusion from this activity is that assistance in improving the economy of the Marang sub-district community is very much needed to realize economic independence.

Investigating and understanding the potential and rules for groundwater exploitation is the goal of this study. The issue is centered on sustainable environmental policies, which might serve as an example for local governments developing groundwater utilization regulations. Observation, interviews with relevant persons, documentation, and qualitative analysis were used to acquire the information. This study concludes that the Potential for Underground Water Tax in the City of Palangka Raya is very fluctuating, decreasing from year to year, even though many underground water tax objects are inactive. Unlike to Palangka Raya, which has developed both its public and private sectors. With these facts, the policy regarding the underground water utilization system in the City of Palangkaraya is still not serious. The tax collection system policy must also prepare personnel resources who are competent and focused on analyzing tax potential, especially with the official assessment.
