The District is pleased to announce two internship opportunities for Summer 2017: a Conservation Outreach Intern and a Water Resources Intern. The internships are a great opportunity for students who are exploring careers and are interested in the Natural Resources or Environmental fields.

The positions provide valuable career opportunities and experience such as: monitoring conservation easements; identifying native and invasive plant species; updating the District’s website and social media accounts; creating outreach materials; providing water quality monitoring assistance; assisting with erosion and sediment control inspections for open permits; developing baseline documentation for easements; conducting education and outreach for landowners; and working on a special project based on the applicant’s interests.
