Background. Waste management is often seen as a technical issue, even though it directly affects citizens' constitutional right to a good and healthy environment.


Aims. This research offers a new perspective by placing waste management in Majalengka Regency as a benchmark for the effectiveness of environmental laws and local law enforcement.


Methods. Through normative legal research, this study analyzes the alignment of local governments' obligations in providing waste management infrastructure based on Article 13 of Law Number 18 of 2008 with the principle of waste management hierarchy in Article 5 paragraph (1). It examines the harmonization of administrative and criminal sanctions in Articles 37-40 with Majalengka Regency Regional Regulation Number 3 of 2023.


Result. The results of the study show that the success of waste management does not only depend on the existence of TPS3R and TPA, but also on the integration of hierarchical-based policies, the application of Extended Producer Responsibility, and proportionate law enforcement.


Conclusion. This research emphasizes that the synergy between public services and law enforcement is the key to realizing environmental justice and sustainability, as well as being a model for other regions in Indonesia.
