Duties Simple and routine maintenance and repair of grounds, exterior structures, buildings and related utilities requiring the use of a variety of trade practices associated with more than one of the following occupations: carpentry, masonry, painting, roofing and motor vehicle operation. Examples of this work are repairing and modifying wood components of historic and prehistoric structures; cleaning and repairing buildings, walls, trim and floor surfaces for painting; assisting in maintenance, repair and stabilization of prehistoric and historic ruins and sites; removing deteriorated roofing materials in preparation for reroofing and assisting with restoring and stabilizing roofs. Operate a light truck to pick up supplies and transport materials to and from work sites.

Physical Demands The physical effort required is considered heavy to moderate and requires lifting and handling of objects or materials up to 50 pounds unassisted, and occasionally lifting or moving heavier items with the assistance of a lifting device or other workers. The incumbent is required to work while standing, stooping, bending, crouching and climbing in tiring, awkward, and uncomfortable positions. When working from a ladder or scaffold, the work involves reaching overhead, stretching, or other awkward positions.

Working Conditions General work is done at prehistoric and historic structures and ruins throughout the park. Often these are in backcountry locations with difficult access that may require rappelling and the use of scaffold and ladder systems. The structures and ruins may be extremely deteriorated and structurally unsound, and therefore considered hazardous. The work may be exposed to moderate or high noise levels from operating machinery, sawdust in the air, fumes, and hazards associated(Servlets power ذخ?). Occasional outdoor work may be performed under adverse weather conditions, and other environmental factors such as stinging and.minutes insects, snakes, and poisonous plants can be encountered.
