PT Adaro Indonesia had won five awards from Energy and Mineral Resources (ESDM) Ministry as a company committed to implementing good and sustainable mining practices.
Adaro received the awards at the Good Mining Practice (GMP) Award 2024 held to commemorate 78th Anniversary of Mining and Energy on September 28, 2024 in Jakarta.
Head of PT Adaro Indonesia Technical Mining Deny Widihatmoko said that a GMP task force had been formed to coordinate GMP assessment, including to evaluate the results of the previous assessments both from mineral and coal mining (minerba) as well as health, work safety and environment (K3LH) assessment within the company.
"With full support from management, we are working to improve GMP performance and assessment,” Denny expounded on Monday.
Adaro also has a program to evaluate companies and PJOs, by creating a monthly forum program, including monitoring and evaluation for Mining and Environmental Safety Management (KPLH) in work partners, KPLH quality level 1 and 2 and MESRA (finding service company solution).
In the future, Adaro hopes that the Technical and Environmental Directorate of Minerba will be more active in providing guidance, so that mining operation will be more safety, secure and efficient.
“We will be able to adapt to changes in criteria of GMP assessment which are getting stricter every year,” said Deny.
The five awardsa won by Adaro were in the categories of standardization and service business aspects, coal conservation aspects, mining technical aspects, environmental protection and mining safety aspects.
Director General of Mineral and Coal Mining Tri Winarno noted in a written statement that GMP Award is awarded to mining companies that demonstrate achievements in applying the principles of mineral and coal mining techniques.
“This award is a parameter of success for the government in guiding the technical aspects of mining,” he said.
He hopes that this activity will motivate all mining business players to continue to carry out operation in accordance with good principles.
