DNR seeks watercraft inspector applicants (2007-03-06)
The Department of Natural Resources (DNR) is seeking watercraft inspector interns for the upcoming boating season. These inspectors are stationed at public accesses on lakes and rivers infested with invasive species such as Eurasian watermilfoil and zebra mussels.
“We’re looking for enthusiastic young adults interested in doing important environmental conservation work,” said Heidi Wolf, DNR Watercraft Inspection Program coordinator.
Watercraft inspectors inform and educate the public about aquatic invasive species and the threat they pose to Minnesota waters. Other duties include assisting with access posting, conducting invasive species plant removal and other natural resource projects.
These full-time temporary internships start in late April and run through October, with flexibility for students still in school.
Positions are available in the seven county metro area, Wright and Chisago counties, along the Mississippi River, in Duluth, Brainerd, Spicer/Willmar and Rainy Lake and Lake of the Woods.
Applicants must have a valid Minnesota driver’s license and be eligible to receive school credit for the position. The application deadline is March 16.
For more information or to request an application, contact Heidi Wolf at (651) 259-5152 or write to: DNR, 500 Lafayette Rd., Box 25, St. Paul, MN 55155-4025. Applications and a complete job description can be found on the DNR’s Web site at: http://www.dnr.state.mn.us.
