Abstract

Law enforcement against specific fisheries crimes is a crucial tool in safeguarding the sustainability of marine and fisheries resources in Indonesia. The operational area of the Bitung Marine and Fisheries Resources Surveillance Base (PSDKP) is both strategically significant and prone to fisheries violations, such as illegal fishing, the use of prohibited fishing gear, and violations of fisheries business permits. This study aims to conduct a legal analysis of the implementation of law enforcement regarding specific fisheries crimes in the operational area of the Bitung PSDKP Station and to identify the obstacles encountered in practice. The research method employed is an empirical-normative legal study using a regulatory approach, a conceptual approach, and empirical data from the Bitung PSDKP Base, supported by secondary data in the form of regulations, legal doctrines, and relevant court rulings. The research findings indicate that law enforcement has been carried out in accordance with Law No. 31 of 2004, as amended by Law No. 45 of 2009 on Fisheries; however, it still faces challenges such as limited infrastructure, the vastness of the surveillance area, and coordination issues among law enforcement agencies. Therefore, institutional strengthening, human resource capacity building, and interagency synergy are needed to achieve effective and fair fisheries law enforcement.
