DEC’s Long Island fisheries unit in Stony Brook needs a technician to oversee upkeep of regional fishing access sites and scout for new ones. The job also covers supervising habitat structure work and fish collections, responding to fish kills, compiling creel survey data, keeping unit equipment in working order, and helping at fishing clinics and festivals. You will supervise lower-level staff and must be comfortable around water, on rough ground and in bad weather, with some weekend and holiday work. It is filled under the NY HELPS program, so no exam is needed, but you must meet the title’s minimum qualifications and hold a valid driver’s license. Pay is $55,817 to $67,990 a year. Apply through the New York State Jobs posting by November 18, 2026.
