Seeing this problem, the research question raised is how to control the utilization and conservation of ground water in Semarang City Industrial Zone? The purpose of this study was to assess the utilization of ground water monitoring by the government in the industrial city of Semarang. To achieve this goal the approach of this study using quantitative descriptive models, the respondents are managers of industrial areas, Central Java Province Department of Energy and Mineral Resources, PSDA Semarang, Semarang City BLH and DPKD Semarang.
