Identify target native invasive plant species and assess priority populations for management and restoration activities

Conduct invasive plant management using chemical, mechanical, and manual control methods in accordance with established protocols
Assist with vegetation removal, site preparation, planting, GPS data collection, and vegetation monitoring
Operate and maintain power equipment and hand tools, including mowers, weed-eaters, chainsaws, and related field equipment
Collect, compile, and manage field data for analysis, reporting, and project evaluation
Prepare clear, accurate, and detailed technical reports and documentation to support project tracking and grant requirements
