Biopores are small holes that are made as a water catchment area. According to wikipedia, biopori infiltration holes are cylindrical holes made vertically into the ground as a water infiltration method aimed at overcoming waterlogging by increasing the water absorption capacity of the soil.

The making of this biopori is made with the aim that rainwater quickly seeps into the ground and can increase groundwater reserves in the Telkom University environment.

Almost all park areas and open areas at Telkom University are made biopori. Telkom University Rector, Prof. Dr. Adiwijaya instructed the Director of Logistics as the manager of the Telkom University area to make as many biopores as possible in all parks and open areas.

So that the biopores made normally last long enough, the ipori holes are installed with paralon and the cover is not covered by garbage and avalanches of soil around the biopori area.

The method of making Biopori Absorption Holes (LRB) is very easy and cheap, the stages of making are as follows:

01. Make a cylindrical hole vertically into the ground with a diameter of 10 cm and a depth of approximately 100 cm using a special hand drill. The depth of the hole can be adjusted to not exceed the shallow groundwater level.
02. Set the distance between holes to a minimum of about 50-100 cm.
03. The mouth of the hole can be reinforced with cement or pipes 2-3 cm thick.
