The process of decomposition of waste in landfills causes air pollution, one of which is hydrogen sulfide gas which is colorless, very toxic and has a foul smell. The purpose of this study was to analyze the environmental health risks of hydrogen sulfide gas exposure to communities around the Sungai Medang landfill in Prabumulih. This research is a type of quantitative descriptive research using the Environmental Health Risk Analysis (EHRA) method. The study sample consisted of 92 people living within a radius of 250 meters and ±500 meters with sampling techniques using the purposive sampling method. The results showed that the highest concentration of Hydrogen Sulfide was at point 1 which was 0.0015 µg/m3 and the lowest was at point 4 which was 0.0001 µg/m3. The intake value (realtime) obtained a value of 0.00053 ?g/m3 and the risk level obtained was 0.267 (RQ<1). Based on these results, the level of risk due to exposure to Hydrogen Sulfide is said to be safe and does not have non-carcinogenic health risks. However, people are advised to install an air purifier in the house and plant a Liriope spicata (creeping lilyturf) plant around the home environment to minimize the odor caused by piles of garbage coming from the landfill.} }
