Minister of the Environment Regulation Number 7 of 2014 concerning Compensation for Environmental Pollution and/ or Damage regulates that environmental compensation costs that have been paid are entered into the Treasury Fund as Non-Tax State Revenue (PNBP).

This research applies a normative juridical approach method using several approaches. The research results show that the environmental compensation costs that have been paid are included in the PNBP, making it difficult to disburse these funds because the long process and the absence of a recovery plan means that the compensation costs charged to the defendant do not have a detailed calculation basis. Supreme Court Regulation Number 1 of 2023 regulates environmental compensation costs are managed in the court clerk's account and lawsuits are required to include a recovery plan.
