Papahānaumokuākea office of the U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service/National
Wildlife Refuge System is pleased to accept applications for the position
of Deputy Refuge Project Leader (GS-12) at the Midway Atoll National
Wildlife Refuge/Papahānaumokuākea Marine National Monument. The person
in this position will serve as one of the key players in managing the
largest protected area in the United States; will work closely with the
National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration, the State of Hawai'i, the
Office of Hawaiian Affairs, and other key partners to develop and
implement numerous programs; and will have the unique opportunity to live
in the middle of one of the most dynamic ecosystems on the planet.
Midway Atoll is 1,000 miles northwest of Honolulu, Hawaii and is widely
known for the battle that changed the course of World War II. Now a
National Wildlife Refuge, and an integral component of the
Papahānaumokuākea, the refuge consists of a fringing reef with three coral
islands totaling 1,549 acres of fast land and 580,392 acres of coral
reefs, submerged marine habitat and blue water. The Atoll measures
approximately 5 miles in diameter. Midway provides nesting habitat for
over 2.1 million seabirds of 15 species and habitat for a diverse and
abundant assemblage of wildlife and plants including the endangered
Hawaiian monk seal, Laysan duck and short-tailed albatross, threatened
green turtles, spinner dolphins, migratory shorebirds, native plants and
an undetermined number of fish and coral species.
