Abstract
The northern city of Semarang is experiencing severe flooding due to rising sea level. This is one effect of global warming as well as land subsidence because of groundwater exploitation. One of the areas affected by the flood is KelurahanKemijen Semarang wherethe house and the environment is always inundated.Efforts made by residents to overcome this problem is to elevate the neighborhood road. However, it poses a new problem for the poor because they cannot raise the floor of their houses so that the floor surface is below the road surface. The other problem is sanitation problem because in principle the area is designed for dry environment. The residents who cannot raise the floor make an effort focusing on sanitation so the “biological activities” and bathing can still take place when the house is submerged in water. There are two kind of effort that they make: 1)increasing the position of septic tank without raising the floor of bathroom and closet holder. However, this does not work optimally. 2)Increasing the bathroom floor and closet holder and raising (and connecting) with septic tank. It seems the second effort is more optimal to face the sanitation problem temporarily. In the research,it took six houses as the sample (10% of the population), which experience the worse condition of the tidal. The research used qualitative description analysis method. The result of the research shows some solutions to the sanitation problems of bathrooms/ toilets performed by the residents, both individual and collective solution, as the adaptation efforts to flood
