ABSTRACT

As a new plain, a naturally emerging land is a plain with the potential and
economic values to be utilized. Up to now, the explicit regulation on the control
over
the naturally emerging land has not yet found in the Indonesian Agrarian Law. The
purpose of this study was to examine more about the control over the naturally
emerging land according to the customs of local communities, the status of the
control over the naturally emerging land, and the steps taken to acquire the right to
land related to the control over the naturally emerging land in Rengat Subdistrict,
Indragiri Hulu District.
This empirical (sociological) juridical study looked at the aspect of legal
application in the society or the communities behavior generated due to the
interaction conducted based on the existing norm system. The data obtained were
qualitatively analyzed to provide a clear description on the answer to the problems
studied. To draw a conclusion, the result of this data analysis was process through
deductive method.
The result of this study showed that according to the customs of local
communities, the incident of the control over the naturally emerging land in Rengat
Subdistrict, Indragiri Hulu District is the same as that of clearing a new land. But
in
the process of clearing the naturally emerging land is based on local tradition in

which the villager owning the land directly adjacent to the naturally emerging land
is
the one who is prioritized to work on and control the naturally emerging land. Up
to
now, the status of the control over the naturally emerging land in Rengat
Subdistrict,
Indragiri Hulu District is still based on adat law/local customs. The evidence is that
there is no villager who obtains permit directly from the Head of Local Land
Office
as the government official who is authorized to issue the permit. The steps taken or
procedures done to acquire the right to land related to the control over the naturally
emerging land in Rengat Subdistrict, Indragiri Hulu District are the same as those
done when applying for the right to state land in general which is to apply for the
right to land to the Head of Local Land Office, but, for the newly emerging land, a
permit and approval issued by the Head of District after the team or technical
agency
established by the Head of District conducted a study on the limit of new river
segments is needed.
