Many of the storm drainage assets are over 80 years old and are reaching the end of their serviceable life. The Watershed and Stormwater Management Division (WSMD) manages projects and programs involving, but not limited to, storm drainage rehabilitation and replacement, hydrology, hydraulics, erosion and sediment control, stream restoration, stormwater best management practices (BMPs), green stormwater infrastructure (GSI), trash capture, and NPDES stormwater permit requirements. This position will work with professional staff, engineers, storm drainage maintenance staff, and construction inspectors to deliver capital projects.

However, the eligible list resulting from this recruitment may be used to fill any vacancy in this classification. FLOOD CONTROL WATERSHED PLANNING SECTION The Watershed Planning Section of the Alameda County Flood Control and Water Conservation District plays a vital role in understanding and managing the region's complex hydrologic systems. The Section evaluates how rainfall, runoff, and land use changes influence flood risks across entire watersheds, developing long-term strategies to manage stormwater, protect communities, and preserve natural floodplains. This work emphasizes a balanced approach to reducing flood risks while promoting environmental stewardship, meeting regulatory requirements, and addressing community needs. Engineers in the Section develop detailed watershed models to identify areas vulnerable to flooding and to propose multi-benefit solutions. These may include enhancements to flood control channels, underground culverts, pump stations, detention basins, natural creeks, and green infrastructure. When facilities are found to be inadequate, the Section prepares preliminary engineering alternatives to increase capacity and improve system resilience. As sea level rise continues to pose new challenges, evaluating flood hazards at riverine outfalls to the San Francisco Bay has become an essential part of the district's planning and infrastructure assessment. In addition to its planning and engineering functions, the Section also manages the Public Works Agency's Geographic Information System (GIS), providing vital spatial data and analysis to support informed decision-making across programs and projects.
