Pacific States Marine Fisheries Commission is recruiting candidates to fill the role of Fisheries Technician 1 located at the McNary Dam in Umatilla, Oregon. This is a seasonal position with an average of four (4) hours per day. However, two (2) days a week this position will be doing Gas bubble Trauma Examinations for which the technician will work up to eight (8) hours per day. The fisheries technician is responsible for preparing for sampling activities and must be on site at the specified time to setup the sampling/recirculating system; fill with water and anesthetic, clean recirculation filters and/or tall screens, and any other preparations as needed before crowding and sampling fish is scheduled to begin. As fish enter the wet lab sorting area, the fisheries technician enumerates the fish, identifying species, fin clips, elastomer tags, descaling, symptoms of columnaris, scans the unclipped Chinook, Coho and Sockeye for Coded Wire Tags and records this information on tally boards and hand logs while ensuring the sampling site and equipment are clean after each sample. Upon completion of sampling, the fisheries technician is expected to dewater the system and clean the lab. Gas Bubble Trauma exams are conducted twice a week. Training will be provided. The work is physically demanding and requires standing for long periods of time at the wet separator, collecting fish, anesthetizing the fish collected and examining fish under a dissecting microscope for sign of gas bubble trauma. This position also requires use of proper lifting methods to lift and carry buckets of fish down ramps or stairs, remove netting and move heavy crowder screens through large holding tanks of water to facilitate sampling of fish.
