The incumbent serves as a staff fishery biologist in the Sea Lamprey Control Program (Program) and conducts sea lamprey control and assessment operations in the United States waters of the Great Lakes at either the Ludington or Marquette Biological Station. The primary focus of the position is in one or more of the following areas: to control sea lamprey populations through the application of lampricides or barrier operation and construction, to implement experimental biological control, to assess non-target effects of control, to assess abundance of adult sea lampreys to measure Program success, or to assess abundance of larval sea lampreys to guide control efforts. The incumbent is part of a team that consists of a team leader and may consist of other full-time career fishery biologist, full-time career biological or physical science technicians, full-time career-seasonal biological science technicians, full-time temporary biological technicians or aids, student trainees and volunteers.

As a Fish Biologist your duties will include, but are not limited to, the following:

Annually drafts plans that describes the field work required, tools needed, and sampling or control locations. Upon supervisory review, this document serves as the annual field guide to scheduled work and includes task description, field operations, and field schedules.
Draw conclusions from complex data to recommend control actions. Performs statistical analysis on data to support conclusions and recommendations. Presents results of highly technical content at workshops, professional meetings and symposia.
Writes or contributes to administrative and technical reports and scientific papers for publication in peer-reviewed fishery journals. Uses appropriate software tools to draft reports and illustrative materials.
Collaborates with partners, investigates new approaches, and assists in development of protocols that standardized techniques as a member of an international subgroup formed by task forces or working groups consisting of U.S. and Canadian federal, provincial, state, tribal, and university representatives. Reviews workplans to ensure techniques are scientifically sound and comprehensive. Cooperates with co-workers in the Fish and Wildlife Service, the Great Lakes Fishery Commission, other U.S. and Canadian agencies, tribes, and contractors to discuss objectives, share information and evaluate the status and progress of Program objectives and tasks. Plans, coordinates, and schedules specific tasks of Program activities throughout the Great Lakes based upon workload and priorities as outlined by team leader. Leads members of team to complete work plan objectives and tasks and other field activities and ensure that members of teams are following appropriate protocols.
Ensures inventory and procurement of equipment, materials, and supplies to meet operational needs. Responsible for the proper use, care, maintenance, and safekeeping of equipment used in field operations. Adheres to procurement, contracting, and liability policies in conducting sea lamprey control activities. Ensure appropriate application and operation of highly specialized fishery equipment (e.g. electrofishing gear, electrical/mechanical weirs, nets, traps, water sampling devices, fish holding and hauling facilities, and water filtration apparatus).

Promotion Potential: This position involves a multi-grade career ladder. The major duties listed represent the full performance level of GS-11. At lower grade levels, you will perform assignments of a more limited scope and with less independence. You will progressively acquire the background necessary to perform at the full performance level of GS-11. Promotion is at the discretion of the supervisor and is contingent upon satisfactory performance, availability of higher-level work, and availability of funds. The selectee may be promoted without further competition when all regulatory, qualification, and performance requirements are met. Selection at a lower grade level does not guarantee promotion to the full performance level.
