WAVE Announcements: End of Sampling Season and a Job Announcement

Only two weeks left to collect your 2017 WAVE samples; the sampling season ends September 30. It's a beautiful time of year to get out into NY's streams!

You’ll have until November 1^st to submit your voucher collections and data sheets. The simplest way to do so is to mail them to me (see address below) using the USPS packaging instructions for small volume flammable liquids (http://pe.usps.com/text/Pub52/pub52apxc_010.htm). If you prefer to drop these off at a NYSDEC regional office, please notify me in advance so that I can reach out to staff at that office and confirm that they can receive the samples. 

I’ve already received over one hundred samples. I am emailing the sample results to the collectors as soon as I process them. Once I have processed all the samples, I will post these data to our online data map (http://on.ny.gov/1o9QScq).

Finally, a position has opened up in our Stream Monitoring Section. Please help us spread the word about this entry level position that would offer experience in all aspects of the NYSDEC Stream Monitoring program. It is posted here and applications are due 9/22: https://www.statejobsny.com/public/vacancyDetailsView.cfm?id=43716

Thank you for your contribution to WAVE!
