This journey-level biologist position plays a critical role in advancing salmon conservation and management in Puget Sound through hands-on project management of population monitoring and research efforts. The position leads juvenile salmonid monitoring in the Skagit River basin, including operation of a rotary screw trap on the mainstem river and, in most years, additional trapping and tagging efforts such as a fence weir on Mannser Creek and a coded-wire tag (CWT) program at Baker Lake.
In this role, you'll transform field data into meaningful insights by analyzing and interpreting results and preparing annual, contractual, and technical reports that document study design, findings, and outcomes. This work directly informs high-impact agency decisions related to habitat restoration effectiveness, harvest management strategies, and hatchery operations - making this a unique opportunity to connect field science with real-world conservation outcomes.
What to Expect-
Among the varied range of responsibilities held within this role, the Skagit River Juvenile Salmon Biologist,
Manages and conducts natural resource assessments with a focus on determining the abundance, migration timing, and life-history diversity of juvenile salmonids:
* Oversees all aspects of project management and supervision for juvenile salmonid monitoring activities in the Skagit River basin, including the installation, removal, and daily operation of traps on the mainstem river and tributaries.
* Leads the implementation of established project sampling and safety protocols.
* Communicates with unit and other Department staff to provide trapping updates and recommend changes to sampling and safety protocols.
* Operates screw trap alongside technical staff as part of the crew rotation and assists with the operation of auxiliary trapping and tagging projects (Mannser Creek fence weir and Baker Lake coho salmon CWT program) when in operation.
* Identifies and enumerates juvenile migrants; records biological data, age, origin, and mark/tag presence; collects biological samples (otoliths, DNA, scales); and conducts efficiency trials while performing daily trap checks.
* Secures required permits and agreements from regulatory agencies and landowners.
* Coordinates work and maintains relationships with other Region 4 staff; tribal co-managers; federal, state, and local agencies and groups; and private companies.
Prepares annual, contractual, and technical reports:
* Organizes, compiles, and manages field data and associated juvenile trapping database, ensuring data quality and integrity both during and post-season.
* Summarizes and analyzes juvenile trapping data using established statistical procedures to produce estimates of juvenile abundance and characterize migration timing.
* Formulates report conclusions based on results, and drafts written reports for review by supervisory staff.
Directs and supervises technical staff to achieve project objectives:
* Hires, trains, and supervises scientific technicians to ensure safe and efficient operation of Skagit River basin juvenile fish traps.
* Counsels and settles employee conflicts, enlisting help of supervisor when necessary.
* Ensures staff complete required trainings and follow all applicable policies, regulations, and safety protocols and procedures of the Unit, Division, and Department.
* Approve staff timesheets, purchasing card statements, and human resources forms.
* Manages project budgets, tracks expenditures and vehicle mileage, completes payments to vendors, and performs other administrative tasks.
Working Conditions:
Work Setting, including hazards:Work is conducted both in the field and an office setting. Field work primarily consists of operating a rotary screw trap on the Skagit River from January through July, with periodic work at the Mannser Creek fence weir and Baker Lake Dam. Traps have minimal cover, are exposed to inclement weather, and are subject to highly variable river and debris flows. Screw traps have various moving parts (large winches, trap cone) that can present pinching and crushing hazards during operation. Screw traps are accessed using a motorboat in variable weather and river conditions. Trap work, including that at Mannser, requires long hours of work and on the weekends, and the ability to carry heavy (50+ lbs) objects on slippery and uneven terrain.
Potential field hazards include slippery surfaces on traps, boats, and on shore that could lead to accidentally entering the water; rotating cones and winches that create pinch points; dyes (Bismarck Brown) and anesthetic compounds (MS-222); encounters with wildlife and stinging insects; working in low light conditions; working at night while fatigued; carrying equipment over uneven terrain; operation of power tools. This position may involve working in or near water, including tasks that require navigating, negotiating, and performing duties related to water environments.
Schedule (i.e., hours and days): 40 hours/week, 8-10 hours/day, although schedule varies greatly between field and off-season. Work primarily occurs from Monday through Friday, although additional weekend and holiday work may be required during trapping season from January through July. During trapping, employee works in a rotating schedule of 2-4 days at mainstem trap site. During off-season, employee works Monday through Friday in an office setting.
Travel Requirements: Some overnight travel - usually in the Puget Sound region - is required to attend trainings or assist with other field work.
Tools and Equipment: 4wd trucks, trailers (worksite campers, boat trailers, flatbed trailers, etc.), work skiffs, outboard motors, rotary screw and scoop traps, fence weirs constructed of trap boxes and wooden panels, hand tools (rakes, shovels, crowbars, sledgehammers, etc.), power tools (chain saws, circular saws, drills, etc.), electric and manual winches, hydraulic and water pumps, generators, overhead and spot lights, agency cell phone, laptop, electronic sampling equipment (CWT detector), CWT machine, scale, knives, forceps, measuring boards, personal protective equipment (PFD), waders and boots, totes/bins, scale and genetic cards, other miscellaneous fish sampling gear
