SENIOR ENVIRONMENTAL TECHNICIAN WATER RESOURCES (State)

Water Resources

Stream gauges, monitoring wells and sampling stations do not read themselves. Someone drives to them on a schedule, draws what the laboratory needs, and takes the measurements that will not survive the trip back — temperature, dissolved oxygen, conductivity, pH — at the water itself.

The qualifier places the position in the programme that assesses New Jersey's surface water and groundwater rather than in air, waste or site remediation.
