The NYC Department of Environmental Protection (DEP) enriches the environment and protects public health for all New Yorkers by providing 1.1 billion gallons of high quality drinking water, managing wastewater and stormwater, and reducing air, noise, and hazardous materials pollution. DEP is the largest combined municipal water and wastewater utility in the country, with nearly 6,000 employees. DEP's water supply system is comprised of 19 reservoirs and 3 controlled lakes throughout the system's 2,000 square mile watershed that extends 125 miles north and west of the City. The Bureau of Wastewater Treatment (BWT) is responsible for the operation and maintenance of all facilities related to the treatment of sewage within the five boroughs of the City. This includes 14 wastewater treatment plants, sludge dewatering facilities, collections facilities (pumping stations, combined sewer overflow retention facilities, regulators, tide gates, etc.), wastewater laboratories and harbor vessels. Wastewater utilities are moving from handlers of wastewater to managers of sustainable resources and watershed-scale environmental leaders seeking the least-cost/highest return environmental and social solutions. We are embracing best practices and collaboration to ensure a sustainable future that minimizes waste, maximizes resources, protects our ratepayers, improves the community and embraces innovation. We have therefore been transforming from an agency that conveys and treats wastewater to a manager of valuable resources that is recognized as an essential partner in local economic development and an important member of the watershed community seeking to deliver maximum environmental benefits at the least cost to society. The selected candidate will be assigned to BWT's Marine Section. Responsibilities will include assisting the Captain in the safe maneuvering, navigation and operation of the Department's sludge vessels; operating and piloting water quality vessels up to 100 feet; maintaining vessel logs and developing reports as needed; performing dispatcher duties; directing subordinate personnel; and performing related duties. Some of the physical activities performed by Mates and environmental conditions experienced are standing for long periods of time during tours of duty or transit time, walking along the boat and up and down staircases during transit. Special Working Conditions: May work rotating shifts in varying degrees of weather and visibility; may work nights, weekends, and holidays.
***IMPORTANT NOTE: Candidate(s) selected for the Mate position through this posting will be hired on a provisional basis. To be considered for permanent employment in this role, provisional employees will need to take and pass the next civil service examination for Mate and obtain a list number issued by the NYC Department of Citywide Administrative Services. Please be aware that employees who do not take and pass the exam, may not be able to continue in the provisional position.***
