Geological/Hydrogeological and Environmental Support Services
Must possess a Bachelor of science (BS) degree or higher in geology, hydrogeology, geophysics, earth science, or environmental science with specific focus on the aforementioned or a combination thereof including a minimum of 6 semester credits of field-based geologic mapping and field methods. Bachelor of Science degrees in the above areas require at least two years of field experience to be documented in each individual’s resume.
Document production in support of technical analyses and regulatory reporting for the drilling and sampling work for wells installed in compliance with the Resource Conservation and Recovery Act of 1976 (RCRA), as well as the Comprehensive Environmental Response, Compensation, and Liability Act of 1980 (CERCLA). Work to be done in accordance with regulatory documents including Sampling and Analysis Plans.
Subject Matter Expert (SME) support, as requested for permitting activities, development of CERCLA Remedial Investigation/Feasibility (RI/FS) work plans, RCRA Facility Investigation/Corrective Measures Study (RFI/CMS) Work Plans, provide administrative/technical support during the execution of RI/FS and RFI/CMS work plans, analysis of the data, development of feasibility alternatives, and preparing detailed cost estimates for remedial alternatives.

Work may also include the documentation of well or borehole decommissioning. Geologists/Hydrogeologists will also be responsible for collecting geologic material and recording observations and information during drilling, decommissioning, aquifer testing, slug testing, soil sampling, groundwater sampling, and vadose zone testing. The geologists will need to use field geochemistry instruments for water sample analysis, and pressure transducers and data loggers for groundwater level drawdown and recovery measurement.
All work is performed at various locations on the Hanford site in Richland, Washington.
