Environmental Protection Seasonal Resource Assistant
2 weeks ago
Are you interested in advancing digital equity? This role offers the opportunity to directly support underserved communities by improving internet access in municipalities across the state. You'll work closely with stakeholders to identify multi-family buildings that qualify for broadband upgrades, ensuring that more residents can benefit from online services like telehealth and remote education. By informing stakeholders about grant opportunities, collecting key data, and engaging with property owners, you'll help bridge the digital divide.
The State of Connecticut, Department of Energy and Environmental Protection (DEEP), currently has an opening for a Seasonal Resource Assistant in the Bureau of Energy and Technology Policy unit based in New Britain, Connecticut.
The Bureau of Energy and Technology Policy (BETP) is charged with developing policies and programs to mitigate and adapt to the impacts of climate change; conserve, improve and protect Connecticut's natural resources and environment; and provide equitable access to broadband and affordable, clean and reliable energy to the people and businesses of the state.
The selected candidate will support the Bureau's Office of Telecommunications and Broadband in the implementation of the ConneCTed Communities broadband infrastructure grant program which in part seeks to improve residents' access to fast, affordable, and reliable broadband by upgrading deficient wiring and infrastructure in Multi-Dwelling Units (MDUs). The tasks assigned to the selected candidate may vary based on their background, skills, and expertise, while also providing opportunities to gain experience in a variety of areas.
This hybrid position is up to 40 hours per week; 1,040 hours or 12 months maximum in duration.
Responsibilities include:
- Informing municipalities about the broadband grant program, highlight its goal of enhancing broadband services, describe program benefits, eligibility criteria, and the application process;
- Identifying and reaching out to relevant municipal contacts, such as city planners, housing departments, and economic development officials who can help identify qualifying MDUs in their jurisdictions;
- Working with municipalities to help identify MDUs that meet the program's eligibility criteria;
- Working with partner agency staff and contacts to identify MDUs through existing contacts and methodologies;
- Collecting data to support MDUs' classification as 'underserved' locations by utilizing data sources and methods permissible in the program's application guidance;
- Bringing awareness to the online MDU survey posted on DEEP's website which collects detailed information about MDUs that could benefit from upgrades, including property addresses, current broadband status, and property ownership details;
- Engaging with property owners to inform them about the program and seek their consent to participate in the broadband infrastructure upgrades;
- Contributing to other program outreach and stakeholder engagement activities;
- Assisting in the preparation of materials, documents and reports regarding program activities;
- Performing related duties as required.
