“…Another example of geothermal utilization in Kamojang, West Java, Endes Nurfilmarasa Dachlan explained that exploration and exploitation of geothermal energy requires land clearing for several activities, such as drilling production wells and injection wells, construction of piping systems to drain fluids to power plants, building geothermal electricity power, and construction of access roads. PGE's land clearing, which includes infrastructure development, has led to deforestation in the Kamojang Nature Reserve up to 60.18 ha (8.9%) (Dachlan et al, 2015).…”

Introduction toThe Problem: Geothermal as an alternative and renewable energy is mostly located in the forest areas, including protected forests, where the use of forest areas for non-forestry activities is very selective and does not change the function of the forest itself. Geothermal and forestry regulations require synchronization regarding the use of protected forest areas so that they do not cause legal conflicts. Purpose/Objective Study:There are arose problems namely the existence of conflicting norms in regulating the use of protected forest areas for geothermal exploitation, between the Geothermal Law and the Forestry Law in combination with Government Regulation No. 24 of 2010 concerning the Use of Forest Areas and Regulation of the Minister of Environment and Forestry on Leasing of Forest Areas. Design/Methodology/Approach: This research method was normative research, using a statutory approach equipped with a comparative approach. Findings: The research finding was the setting of leasing forest areas for geothermal exploitation was contradictory and did not function to carry out the orders of the Forestry Law. The research implication is that the Government together with the Parliament must put into comprehensive special authorities and regulations related to the management and utilization of energy in forest areas so that there is no overlap and legal uncertainty in the use of forest areas.

“…Kondisi eksisting perubahan luas TWA kamojang dikhawatirkan akan menjadi kegiatan pariwisata yang dapat merusak kondisi alam dan degradasi lingkungan yang akan berdampak negatif (CNN Indonesia, 2019) seperti tergangunya habitat flora dan fauna (DETIK, 2019), longsor dan banjir bandang (ANTARA, 2019) bahkan telah terjadi sebelum perubahan status. Status deforestasi sebelum perubahan yaitu CA Kamojang telah memiliki status tergangu dengan pembukaan lahan untuk geothermal hanya 8,9 % dan dan perambahan kawasan oleh masyarakat hinga mencapai 91,1% (Dahlan et al, 2016). Permasalahan perubahan CA Kamojang menjadi TWA kamojang dikhawatirkan aktivitas pariwisata semakin meningkat.…”

The research was conducted in the area of the change of the Kamojang Nature Reserve (CA) to the Kamojang Nature Tourism Park (TWA) so that there was an increase in the area of the Kamojang Natural Tourism Park which was previously 535.01 Ha to 2,391 Ha. The goal of this study was to identify willingness to pay for environmental conservation in TWA after changes in land area. The method used willingness to pay (WTP) for environmental conservation in tourist areas in TWA Kamojang and the factors that influence the WTP value by using logit regression. The results showed that the average willingness to pay by visitors (WTP) is Rp. IDR 51,887 per visit with the option of improving facilities and infrastructure, adding tourist activities such as adequate camping grounds and hot springs and educational tourism of natural and environmental knowledge at TWA Kamojang. The total WTP is estimated to reach IDR 680,339,623 per year. All of the independent variables such as gender, age, income, education, travel costs during the tour affected the willingness to pay (WTP). The most significant factors influencing the willingness to pay for environmental conservation in the TWA Kamojang was age. The management of TWA Kamojang is expected to develop nature tourism that takes into account the principles of environmental conservation
