Summary

We are seeking 4 motivated and reliable Invasive Species Strike Team Technicians to join us in controlling invasive species throughout the Catskills this season: Two Aquatic Strike Team Technicians and two Terrestrial Strike Team Technicians. These seasonal Technicians are anticipated to work 37.5 hours/week for 14 weeks, beginning mid-May. The Terrestrial Strike Team will focus control efforts on terrestrial plants and animals. The Aquatic Strike Team will focus efforts in and around lakes, rivers, and streams, working from boats or shore in waders or similar gear. All
equipment is supplied, but Strike Teams will need to transport equipment and gear to field sites, including kayaks, as appropriate. Training is provided. The Aquatic Strike Team will be supervised by the CRISP Aquatic Invasive Species
