The Kentucky Department of Fish and Wildlife Resources' Center for Mollusk Conservation is looking to add additional staff to support our recovery efforts with freshwater mussels, specifically with the Fat Pocketbook (Potamilus capax).

This position will be listed as a Fisheries Biologist II, because the state of KY has no specific classifications for biologists that study mussels. To see more specific job details or to apply, go to http://personnel.ky.gov/default.htm and complete an online application. If you have any other questions about the job please contact Dr. Monte McGregor at monte.mcgregor@ky.gov. The position will be posted until February 15, 2010.
