Description
Unique Qualifications - The applicant is uniquely qualified to perform the activity based upon the specific need in which the work is accomplished. Eligible applicants are limited to Southwest Conservation Corps (SWCC). The SWCC provides the needed service by utilizing hand crews that are both efficient and economical. Invasive species pose a serious threat to the health and integrity of natural communities within Arizona's National Wildlife Refuges. An integral part of the invasive species program is the use of hand crews. Hand crews can work in areas where it is not possible or practical to use heavy equipment or aerial spraying. Hand crews can be used to re-treat and maintain restoration sites, to treat new infestations, to work in fragile habitat, and to reach areas not readily accessible to heavy equipment or aircraft. SWCC crews provide an effective economical means to meet this need and they benefit by gaining valuable work experience.
