Responsibilities:

The Fuels Crew members will be expected to excel at two separate jobs over the course of the project duration. One of these jobs will be working under the direction of a Forest Health Engine Captain as a Fuels Crew Member on a 22 person fuels reduction crew, completing hazardous fuels reduction on priority project sites around the Arcadia District. The fuels reduction crew will be implementing wildland hazardous fuels mitigation projects. These critical services protect public resources, natural resources, and public safety. The fuels reduction projects will help the agency implement Goal 1 of the 20-Year Forest Health Strategic Plan, Eastern Washington, by directly providing scientifically sound, landscape-scale cross-boundary management and restoration treatments in priority watersheds to increase forest and watershed resilience. The treatment projects include non-commercial tree thinning using chain saws, tree pruning and slash abatement. Slash abatement will be performed using prescribed fire, chipping or windrowing for mechanical mastication. During the fire season, the Fuels Crew member will be operating as a Wildland Firefighter on a Type 5 brush Engine in the Arcadia District, responsible for conducting wildfire initial attack in a safe and efficient manner. This will include operating in NWCG Wildland Fire positions such as Incident Commander Type 5, Firefighter 1, and more depending on the scale of the incident. When not on wildfire incidents, these individuals will be training, studying, checking previous incidents, or any other duties as assigned. The Engine will be expected to be competent and professional while on and off the fire line. The Arcadia District is a fast-paced and complex work environment that places an emphasis on building a culture that requires an individual who will work within the team goals and dynamics to be successful. The individuals selected for these positions would be employed year-round, completing fuels reduction work in the winters and engaged in fire suppression in the summers.
