Passing on this announcement, please share with potential candidates.  Note there are 12 opendings linked to this job announcement.

Looking for candidates for 12 GS-7 BioTech Term Mapper position<https://urldefense.com/v3/__https:/www.usajobs.gov/GetJob/ViewDetails/551682800__;!ioFpBMP7lJU!nN24uc5eWHT42Yi0JbnsCVNMNqhjbR15xKlyElp2MEmd3Y6zGm1v5Z6eHnMN6bb5NQ$>s.  The primary focus and goal of this will be to support our Pre-1976 wetland easement mapping initiative.  We're on a deadline to finish all pre-76 mapping by Sept 30, 2020.  Just as a reminder, prior to 1976 the service did not create 'Exhibit A' maps denoting wetland basins on wetland easements.  This is an initiative with a specific process to define, map and finalize protected wetland basins on those easements.  The person in this position will also support other GIS and cartographic efforts within the department of Realty.   You may notice that the Responsibilities section of the hiring announcement also includes other possible duties that mirror that of a traditional biotech position.  Candidates should be sure to speak to these responsibilities, but the primary focus of this position will be on GIS and Cartographic efforts.  This position will include little to no field work.

See the position description for contact information.
