SHELLS THAT HAVE BEEN POLLUTED BY LEAD AROUND YOUTEFA BAY IN JAYAPURA CITY THAT HAVE POTENTIAL RISK OF NON CARCINOGENIK

Abstract

According to several researchs, there are several
coastal areas in Indonesia has contaminated with
heavy metals, example lead. Lead contamination in
water can be found in the waters, bays, coastal,
marine and rivers. Several reports found variety of
areas that had been contaminated with lead or
plumbum (Pb) which exceeded the threshold value
was allowed, even the impact of pollution. For
example, lead pollutions in the Jakarta Bay (
Fitriany, 2004; Sarjono, 2009; Rochyatun, 2003),
the coastal of Riau (Nasution, 2011), Badung River
(Bogoriani, 2006), coastal Borneo (Hartono, et all
2011), Bali beaches (Nelyazar, 2007), and the
coastal of Makassar (Habrianti, 2013). In Papua,
Youtefa bay in Jayapura is recorded as costal areas
that already contaminated Lead, and gulf youtefa
can not be separated from the problem of heavy
metal pollution because a part of ragtag Jayapura,
the estuary into the gulf Yotefa. In 2004 (Arobaya
& Pattiselano, 2010) a survey Bapedalda Jayapura
on water quality parameter Youtefa polluted sea in
gulf of Pb has reached 0.03 mg/l. Based on the
researchresults Manalu in 2012, found that an
index ofpollution in the waters of the gulf of storet
Youtefa based index (a value of raw data about the
quality of the water which is then transformed into
an index ) are in moderate and severe polluted
(Manalu, 2012).
This study aims to analyze how much health risks
that caused by lead exposure in shells which may
effect human health or community that stay
around this site. In addition, this researches is
observational research with risk analysisi or Hazard
Quotient. Samples have been collected through
purposive sampling method.
