still working on updating costs and planning, so consider this a DRAFT.

We will try to keep the costs to less than $300 per student for the

Vacancy







There are two vacancies that have just been posted yesterday afternoon for
two GS-9/11 Interpretive Specialists on USA JOBS. One announcement is open
to all sources (the general public) and the other is open to all government
employees as merit promotion. The two announcements are for two positions,
but one is open to all sources and the other is merit promotion.

I wanted to ask you to spread the word with any of your contacts about
these two interpretive specialist positions in the Intermountain region.
One is in salt lake city and the other in Santa Fe. Both are GS-9/11s and
will be working in the long distance national historic trails offices.

The work involves interpretive media planning and production. In SLC there
are four long distance trails covering 13 states from Missouri and Illinois
to the Pacific Ocean.The Santa Fe position includes five long distance
trails from southern California to Georgia.

Both the announcements (government-wide and all sources) can be found on

Opportunity for summer work near Santa Fe, NM:

The watershed job will consist mainly of bird counts, nest monitoring, and veg
surveys.  The main thing I'm concerned about is hiking ability.  I want someone
who can move quickly in the mountains without any trails.  All the bird counts
have to be done by 10 AM, so the faster we can move, the later we get to sleep. 
The only other thing that's really important is the ability to learn a bunch of
bird calls - about a hundred.  It's a little daunting at first for everyone, but
sharp ES students should be able to manage fairly quickly.  I'll send out a CD
to listen to before the season starts.  Experience with birds would be great,
but is certainly not necessary.  Also, there will only be three people for the
summer, so someone that is easy to hang out with is kind of a must.  We'll be
spending lots of time together.  The job should start sometime around the 11th
of May, but that could be changed if school is still going.

That should be about it for the work.  The job is great.  The Santa Fe watershed
is beautiful and closed to the public, so we will just be walking around alone
in the woods listening to birds all summer.  Plus, Santa Fe isn't such a bad
place to hang out.  The whole area is really nice and it has a great brewery. 
We will probably be camping for the duration, but renting a place isn't out of
the question.  We would be paying for it though - a campsite is the best housing
that could be arranged through the forest service.  I'm still not sure what the
pay would be, but around $10/ hr is my best guess for undergrads.

Anyone who's interested or who has any questions can drop me an email
(jcploss@...<mailto:jcploss@...>) or, since time is so pressing,
give me a call at 575-312-3359.  The official deadline for this is this Monday,
but we might be able to push it back a little bit.  The sooner the better
though.

Thanks,
Jason Ploss
