Natural Resources Specialist

Duties

As the Natural Resources Specialist, the work includes performing a variety of professional and technical functions related to natural resource management. The incumbent applies analytical and evaluative methods and techniques to well precedented projects and studies concerning issues or problems of a procedural or factual nature, and/or readily observable conditions. The incumbent makes recommendations to resolve such issues in accordance with established methods, guidelines and precedents. The incumbent may work on projects with a geographically or organizationally limited scope (e.g. at the field or district office level) or may work on portions of broader studies with guidance and oversight from a higher graded specialist.

Duties will be developmental in nature when filled below the full performance level. Promotion to the full performance level is neither guaranteed nor implied and will be based solely on your ability to satisfactorily perform the work of the position, existing work at the higher grade level, and recommendation by the position's supervisor.
