Physical Demands: Assignments range from short-term repairs and daily operational duties to recurring preventive maintenance, seasonal startup and shutdown activities, and long-term rehabilitation projects.

Personnel are assigned to projects across administrative buildings, public-use facilities, housing units, visitor centers, campgrounds, water and wastewater systems, and other developed park areas, covering a wide geographic region.
