ADMINISTRATIVE SANCTION IN ENVIRONMENTAL LAW

Enforcement of administrative sanctions is part of the enforcement of administrative environmental laws. Law enforcement of the administrative environment itself can be done in a preventive and repressive manner. Administrative law enforcement that is preventive is done through supervision, while repressive law enforcement is done through the application of administrative sanctions. Supervision and application of administrative sanctions aims to achieve the adherence of the public to the legal norms of the administrative environment. Good supervision as part of preventive environmental law enforcement will prevent the violation of administrative law norms. Thus, environmental pollution resulting from such breaches can be avoided. This is better than the enforcement of repressive administrative sanctions after the offense. However, it does not mean that the review of enforcement of administrative sanctions is unimportant.
