Based on the results of the study, it was concluded that to measure organizational performance in terms of productivity, service quality, responsiveness, responsability and accountability are good. The inhibiting factors lie in individual abilities and the work environment, namely the lack of human resources who are geologists, hydrometologists and other experts, lack of employee concentration and lack of supporting facilities and infrastructure so that efforts are made to improve the work ability of employees through training, adding supporting infrastructure. Suggestions in this study include being more active in conducting socialization, counseling, and simulation to the community, completing the necessary facilities and infrastructure, improving the quality of resources in accordance with the competence of experts in the field of geology, hydrometheologists and other experts.
