Ability to perform disinfection of water mains and calculate chlorine concentrations.
Ability to plan and perform all aspects of return to service activities (including sample collection).
Demonstrated understanding of water quality issues (including how to plan from investigation through to resolution).
Ability to replace/repair/install various types/sizes of water mains and services (with understanding of the practices and procedures required to protect the water system).
Ability to replace/repair/install various types/sizes of water valves.
A valid Class 5 Driver's License (or provincial equivalent), with no more than 6 demerits and no current suspensions or charges pending.
Ability to use software and desktop or remote devices is essential.
A valid class 3 Driver's License (or provincial equivalent) and airbrake certification will be considered an asset.
