Environmental Protection Specialist

$86,962 a year
National Park Service
Hot Springs National Park Full-day Full-time

Description:

Career-Seasonal appointments are permanent positions and include the same benefits as Career appointments, but do not provide work on a year-round basis. You will work from approximately 11.5 months, and you will be in a non-pay status for the remainder of the year.

The typical seasonal entry-on-duty period is late December thru mid December of the following year but can be variable during these months due to weather conditions, project needs, or funding.

Requirements:

All qualifications must be met by the closing date of this announcement-04/19/2024-unless otherwise stated in this vacancy announcement.

Credit will be given for all appropriate qualifying experience. For current Federal employees, if hours worked per week are not included on your resume, you must submit a non-award SF-50 for each federal position listed as part of your application to be used to validate your work schedule and determine the amount of qualifying experience that you will be granted. An award SF-50 will not be acceptable documentation for which to consider your amount of qualifying experience. For all other applicants who are not current federal employees, your resume must state either "full-time" (or "40 hours a week") or "part-time" with the number of hours worked per week to ensure proper crediting of specialized experience. Failure to adequately provide information needed to determine number of hours worked in each position may result in that time not being credited when evaluating qualifying experience.

For periods of time that reflect military service, the DD-214 or Statement of Service is sufficient to meet the full and/or part-time hours requirement as the service dates will be reflected.

To qualify for this position at the GS-12 grade level, you must possess the following minimum qualifications by close of the announcement:

EXPERIENCE: At least one full year of specialized experience comparable in scope and responsibility to the GS-11 grade level in the Federal service (obtained in either the public or private sectors). This experience includes activities such as: Applied concepts and methods of environmental protection work; interpreted plans and National Environmental Policy Act (NEPA) laws, regulations, policies and guidance for land and resource management programs; provided advice to other NEPA practitioners and leadership regarding the application of NEPA laws regulations, policies, and guidance to environmental compliance activities; reviewed environmental documents, including NEPA documents, to ensure legal sufficiency and compliance with applicable laws and regulations; worked with public land resource values, issues, or controversies; and used computerized database systems to track projects, conduct public involvement, and analyze data. Education cannot be substituted for experience at this level. You must include hours per week worked.

Volunteer Experience: Experience refers to paid and unpaid experience, including volunteer work done through National Service programs (e.g., Peace Corps, AmeriCorps) and other organizations (e.g., professional; philanthropic; religious; spiritual; community, student, social). Volunteer work helps build critical competencies, knowledge, and skills and can provide valuable training and experience that translates directly to paid employment. You will receive credit for all qualifying experience, including volunteer experience.
