• Be able to serve in an assigned on-duty/on-call position in the Emergency Response Organization (ERO), with the potential for 24/7/365 recall and assignment on extended hours or during nights, weekends, and holidays; whenever such events occur

Desired skills/knowledge:

• Experience in performing hazardous materials screening

• Relevant experience in one or more of the following areas: emergency management, hazardous materials emergency response, environmental science, chemistry, biology, mathematics physics, atmospheric science, industrial risk management, fire protection, industrial hygiene, health physics. 

• Basic knowledge of accident analysis and process safety engineering concepts

• Basic knowledge of U.S. Department of Energy Order 151.1, National Incident Management System (NIMS), and the Incident Command System (ICS). Basic knowledge and experience using Geographical Information Systems (GIS) for the purposes of geographical analysis and map development. 

• Basic knowledge of  consequence assessment air dispersion modeling and simulation software such as NARAC, HotSpot, EpiCODE, Aloha, and Cameo.

• Basic knowledge in the maintenance, activation, coordination and support of activities in an operational Emergency Operations Center.

• Relevant emergency management certifications: IS-100.b: Introduction to Incident Command System ICS-100, IS-200.b ICS for Single Resources and Initial Action Incident, ICS-200, IS-230.d Fundamentals of Emergency Management, IS-235.b Emergency Planning, IS-700.a National Incident Management System (NIMS) An Introduction, IS-800.b National Response Framework, An Introduction.
