Helping perform surveys of fences, pitfalls, desert tortoise road signs, and off-road vehicle areas to inform the natural resources program of infrastructure that needs repair.
Investigate reports and conduct surveys of unauthorized trash dumps on base, and either removing it or coordinating clean-up and removal with external vendors.
Revising and creating tables and graphs for reports and management plans.
Utilizing GIS to manage data collected in surveys and observations to create maps or tables, or conducting aerial imagery inspections to analyze land disturbance patterns.
Conducting invasive plant surveys or treatments.
