San Francisco Bay Water Board Internship

The Scientific Aid will assist staff (including me) under the site cleanup and land disposal programs overseeing remediation and monitoring of toxic sites; including mines, landfills, and chemical manufacturing and storage facilities. I am looking for assistance in prioritizing and coordinating inoperative mine inspections and cleanups, but the Aid will assist in a broad range of projects in these programs.  This position will involve working closely with me and other Water Board staff, and potentially directly communicating with the public (written and verbal communication skills important). It will include a significant amount of computer time (Microsoft Excel and Word experience important), and some site inspections (hiking experience important).

Several Scientific Aids who’ve worked with us in the past have procured positions at environmental consulting firms, other government agencies, and with the regulated community. Some have returned to the Water Board in full-time, staff level positions. 


Thanks and Happy Holidays!
