Mining activities have the potential to affect the health of the ecosystem and reduces its ability to provide goods and services needed for human welfare and the environment. The importance of a healthy environment for future generations is a pillar of sustainable development. To be more environmentally friendly, more mining operations carried out in a manner that minimizes its impact on the surrounding environment. A number of management strategies and technologies are being developed and used by the mining industry to reduce the environmental impact of mining. One of the potential considerable environmental pollutions may occur in the mining sector is pollution due to hazardous wastes and toxic (it’s called B3 waste ). Compliance with the Indonesian Government Regulation number 101 of 2014 has been a challenge for the coal mining company given the B3 waste management requirements are very detailed and rigorous. B3 waste management challenges become more complex than other business sectors because of the typical mining company-wide working area and the number of workers involved lots. The mining company must prepare a special strategy in the management of B3 waste to be able to adhere to all requirements. The study was conducted at Mining Company “X” in terms of the effectiveness of the management of B3 waste by using Regulation of the Governor of East Kalimantan, Indonesia number 05 of 2014 concerning Performance Rating Program Activity In Coal Mining Environmental Protection and Management. The purpose of this study are: (1) To determine and analyze the effectiveness of the Waste Management Policy B3 on Mining Company “X” is based on Government Regulation No. 101 of 2014; (2) To determine and analyze the added value of B3 Waste Management Policy in Mining Company “X” (it's called MC "X").
