Monitoring and Streamflow Manager

The Monitoring and Streamflow Manager will work collaboratively as part of CFC’s Restoration and Flow Teams to support instream flow monitoring and restoration projects in the Clark Fork River watershed.  This position will coordinate all aspects of CFC’s streamflow monitoring program and ensure that CFC’s owned and leased water rights are measured, monitored and enforced as needed to protect streamflows throughout the watershed. The Monitoring and Streamflow Manager will oversee one or more temporary monitoring technicians hired during the annual field season (May-September).  

The Monitoring and Streamflow Manager will work closely with CFC’s Flow Team to assist with existing and new instream flow projects, securing change-of-use authorizations from Montana DNRC for instream flow purposes. Other flow project activities may include, but will not be limited to pursuing water rights purchases, temporary leases, and water conservation or efficiency projects.
