[ShovelBums.Org] Cultural Resource Field Technician, Humbolt-Toiyabe National Forest, Bridgeport Ranger District

The Great Basin Institute, a Reno-based 501(c)3 non-profit organization, is hiring up to two (2) Cultural Resource Field Technicians, including one Senior Field Technician, to focus on cultural resource survey and

preparation of site records. Field and office work will be focused on Humboldt-Toiyabe National Forest managed lands primarily within the Bridgeport and Carson Ranger Districts related to the Four Mile Hill and Rough Creek Landscape Habitat Improvement Project. In accordance with Section 106 of the National Historic Preservation Act (NHPA), cultural resource investigation must be completed to evaluate effects to historic and prehistoric sites on federally managed lands. As such, the Technicians will assist with site forms; collecting and cataloging field data; simple trowel or shovel tests; as well as coding sheets, slides, photographs, and narrative data to ensure that field data relationships are catalogued, maintained, and entered into appropriate databases. All new sites will be documented on site records, photographed, mapped and illustrated as needed. Previously recorded sites will have new site records completed if needed.
