Abstract As a company that leads the generation of word class services, Indonesia Power has a vision to become a public company with world-class performance and environmentally friendly. To fulfill that vision, Grati Combined Cycle Power Plant (CCPP) contributes to Environmental Compliance (PROPER) Awards by Ministry of Environment of Indonesia. One of assessment criteria of PROPER is assessment of biodiversity protection with reporting aspects that require the presence of data, system information and publishing system that can collect and evaluate status and trends of biodiversity resources, managed at least 2 years. This innovation can increase biodiversity score up to 40 points over 100 of total score. Previously, in Grati CCPP, biodiversity data is manually recapitulated by the Division of Chemical and Environmental using basic Excel application. It causes some problem of difficulties, such as less structured and uneasy to find data due to offline system. We consider that creating application of E-Bios in order to process, evaluate, and present data in an online publication. In addition to better data integrity, E-Bios allows for publication of biodiversity data online as a solution to support Grati CCPP biodiversity innovation. Keywords: Grati Combined Cycle Power Plant, Environmental Compliance, Biodiversity Protection, E-Bios.

Introduction Indonesia Power has a vision to be a public company with world-class performance and benign environmental base. One step to reach this vision implemented by participated on Environmental Compliance Assessment, a program which initiated by Ministry of Environment (MoE) Indonesia. Environmental Compliance in Indonesia commonly known as PROPER (an abbreviation of Program Penilaian Peringkat Kinerja Perusahaan dalam Pengelolaan Lingkungan Hidup). Grati Combined Cycle Power Plant (CCPP) has participated since 2010. At year of 2010 to 2012, Grati CCPP was awarded Green PROPER. PROPER assessment in 2011 used the new assessment method based on the regulation of Environment Minister Regulatory Framework 05/2011 about Environmental Compliance Assessment. Appendix II of it was explained about the Green and Gold Assessment Criteria which divided into [1]:

1. Environmental Management System 2. Resource Utilization 3. Community Development

Assessment criteria of resource utilization include biodiversity protection criteria. On the sub-criteria there were actual report and implementation aspects that require data, information, and publication system. It has to be able to collect information and support the status evaluation and biodiversity resources propensity and biological resources which have been managed at least for 2 years. That criteria become OFI (opportunity for improvement) for Grati CCPP which initiate to proceed the biodiversity data by using basic computer program. This paper mostly discussed about information system as the biodiversity online data collection and monitoring. Objectives

This paper has several objectives, such as: 1. Data collection and evaluation of biological resources. 2. Online monitoring system of biodiversity protection. 3. Supporting Environmental Compliance achievement for Grati CCPP in Energy

Sector. Methodology

1. Analysis of Biodiversity Data Governance

Generally, the business process of biodiversity data governance at Grati CCPP can be explained as follows: a. Field data collection implemented by Institut Teknologi Sepuluh Nopember

Surabaya (ITS) Laboratory Team (Flora and Fauna) and Balai Besar Teknik Kesehatan Lingkungan dan Pemberantasan Penyakit Menular (BBTKL PPM Laboratory Surabaya or Envilab) for Benthos and Plankton analysis.

b. The field data processed into a hard copy report. c. The hard copy report data recapitulated into Microsoft Excel application with

the following format (Table 1.).

Table 1: Collecting Data Manual Template

Species Name Abundance Status Index

Change manual data recapitulation system into Microsoft Excel program has some lacks:

a. The difficulty on data collection and evaluating biodiversity resources propensity and managed biological resources.

b. Unsupported status data publication and biodiversity propensity and biological resources which managed fast and accurately by online.

a. Apache web application server as the service provider of HTTP protocol. As application accesses request of client database connection, transaction process, etc. Apache runs program execution on the system then gives response to the client.

b. MySQL database server as the storing service provider and data processing (database).

c. The network infrastructure (switching, router, wifi, UTP cable) d. The client devices; PC, notebook, tablet and etc., As long as it has the web

browser as the client application and facility of network connection to access the application.

The minimum specification requirements for the server devices and client are EBIOS is shown in Table 2.

Applications Design Based on the data collection process of biodiversity, the application design will be implemented using the following method:

a. Using DFD modeling approach (Data Flow Diagram) to clarify the definition of structure processing, function and application data flow.

b. The design of database based on the function structure and data flow defined. In this innovation, database design made with ERD modeling (Entity Relationship Diagram) as enclosed.

Results and Discussions

Implementation of Innovation

The information Systems namely EBIOS (Environmental and Biodiversity Informastion System) and has been used since January 2012. EBIOS can solve the problem formulation. This application can be accessed on the internet network by login using corporate username and email password [2]. The interface of E-Bios is depicted in Figure 2 to Figure 4.

Figure 2: Interface of E-Bios Monitoring System In general, EBIOS’s users divided into three access rights: 1. Entry operator: user with access right of inputting, deleting, and updating data. 2. Administrator: user with access right as applications administrator. 3. Viewer: website visitor with the right to see the data published.

Figure 3: Welcome Page of E-Bios

This application was designed with the main menu as follows : 1. Biodiversity Data: the function of this to input, update, delete, search, and print

report of biodiversity data number. 2. List of Biological Organisms: the function of this to input, update, delete, search,

and print report of biological resource data.

Advantages and Benefits

Financial Benefit

EBIOS development need low amount of cost due to it was developed with free software. According to it, Grati CCPP can save IDR of 66,440,000.00 because there will not be handled by third party anymore (source: procurement services contract application). The total cost analysis is then shown in Table 3. Table 3: Total Cost Analysis for E-Bios No Contract Total Day Cost / Day Cost + Tax Total Cost 1 Programmer 1 40 740,000.00 814,000.00 32,560,000.00

Total (Rp) 66,440,000.00 Non Financial Benefit

EBIOS application succeed in enhancing the PROPER score, specifically in Biodiversity Protection aspects, as can be seen in Table 4 [3], [4]. Table 4: Biodiversity Final Score of PROPER – Grati CCPP

Conclusions and Recommendations

This study has effectively shown successfulness of Environmental Compliance achievement, so it can be conclude that: 1. EBIOS is the computerize system which able to help the biodiversity data

processing in Grati CCPP. 2. EBIOS improves worker’s effectiveness and efficiency in collecting data and

evaluating the biodiversity propensity in Grati CCPP. 3. EBIOS has proven significantly improving the point enhancement of PROPER

Grati CCPP as in Energy Sector for more than 1000 %. 4. Beside of giving simplicity and easiness to finance department so they can work

effectively and efficiently, by running this application independently Grati CCPP will be able to save the maintenance application cost in the amount of 66,440,000.00 (currency in IDR).
