Class Concept
This is administrative and supervisory work in managing or coordinating an aspect of the preservation and restoration program for properties of historic and cultural significance throughout the state. Under administrative direction of the Archaeology and Historic Preservation Administrator, employees supervise and coordinate a program area such as survey and registration, environmental review, or restoration. Work in these areas involves monitoring and coordinating the historic property evaluations conducted by independent grant recipients throughout the state; reviewing and researching historic property nominations; evaluating and investigating environmental impact to properties of historic or cultural significance; or advising and consulting on projects to preserve and restore buildings of historic significance. Employees perform related duties as required. Employees establish the responsibilities of the positions in the survey and restoration units and develop changes or growth in staffing based on long-range goals and needs of the section. Employees determine appropriate project assignments based on the specific goals and objectives of the projects. Employees evaluate and justify budgetary needs based on previous year's expenditures and planned projects for the coming year. Employees monitor expenditures throughout the year and discuss unexpected problems or purchase needs with the section administrator. Employees determine staff development needs for the units of preservation restoration specialists, research potential sources of training, and recommend in-house training or outside sources of training. Employees develop standards for survey procedures, environmental impact determinations, and building restoration, and ensure that adequate training exists for staff development. Employees develop standards for individual work performance in the units according to established policies and procedures. Employees provide input in the development of standards and procedures for the section.
