Abstract

The purpose of this study was to examine the impact of the construction and development of a dam in Bumi Ratu Village, Pringsewu Regency, Lampung Province, Indonesia. Based on the theory, there are four variables used to measure the economic impact that occurs, namely Job Opportunities, Business Opportunities, Job changes, and Community Income. Based on the results of the analysis using inferential statistical analysis and descriptive analysis, it was found that the construction of the Way Sekampung dam has an impact on the economy in Bumi Ratu Village from four measurement variables. The construction of dams spurs economic growth by opening up job opportunities and increasing business opportunities, and another impact is a change in people’s jobs and improving people’s income.
