Opis:: Determining the level of solid pollution in beach sands located near artificial inland water bodies in order to maintain high safety standards is a difficult and expensive task. The tests aimed at determining beach pollution caused by solid wastes through analysis of toxic and chemical concentrations, are time-consuming and usually require several days before the results are available. In addition, the maintenance of the beach area involving beach raking or grooming, and the seasonal replenishment of sand makes it difficult to realistically determine the chemical or bacterial contamination of the tested material. Solid pollutants, such as glass, caps, cans, thick foil, metal, and plastic fragments, pose a greater health risk to beachgoers. The above-mentioned pollutants, especially small ones, are hardly visible on the surface or they are buried at shallow depths. Beach garbage poses a serious threat that can lead to infections from cuts and scratches. These injuries can become infected, further jeopardizing the health and lives of beachgoers due to risks like tetanus, staphylococcus, etc. The authors presented a new petrographic method aimed at assessing the quality of sand by examining the content of solid pollutants. The obtained results allowed us to conclude that the mentioned procedure can be used for a quick quantitative estimation of the content of potentially dangerous and undesirable pollutants in beach sands. Consequently, the method implemented to determent the amount of solid pollutants in beach sands has proven to be a valuable tool for recreational facility administrators, helping them in taking necessary measures to ensure the safety of beach users. Petrographic analysis of beach sands revealed the presence of pollutants of plant origin (0.4–1.8%), plastic (0.1–0.4%), paper (0.1–0.6%), charcoal (0.1–0.5%), glass (0.1–0.4%), metals (0.1–0.4%), rust (0.1–0.3%), ash and slag (0.1–0.3%), and fossil coals (0.1–0.2%).

Opis:: This research was to assest of marine debris in Pangandaran beach. Marine debris sampled from 2016 and 2017 around west Pangandaran using Ocean Conservancy (OC) form to find information about distribution, abundance, and types. The result is debris on the West coast of Pangandaran is originally comes from settlements, tourists, traders, and fishermen. The highest accumulation of marine debris happened in October with total weight 44.385 kilos, while the lowest accumulation happened in May with total weight 38 kilos. this is due to Citumang River had overflowed due to heavy rain and then was swept away along the coastline and piled up an area near the bay in October. In May and August the debris which most find is cigarette with the percentage 28% in May and 35% in August. While in October the debris which most find is a plastic bag with percentage 33%. From six types of debris, the dominant debris per types as follows: Most likely to find items is cigarette butts, Fishing gear is rope, Packaging material is other plastic/foam packaging, Personal hygiene is diapers, Other trash is cigarettes lighters, and Tiny trash less than 2.5 cm is foam pieces. The specific debris at Pangandaran beach is the fisheries tools like a rope and net, the rope embedded in the ground and make it hard to take out. One of the factor the large number of debris in Pangandaran is tourism activity and fisheries activity. In addition, the study indicates that there is a strong relationship between human activities and spreading of debris.
