Habitat Restoration Resources, Inc. is hiring up to 25 local laborers to clear vegetation to improve Scrub Jay habitat on approximately 1,900 acres of the Merritt Island National Wildlife Refuge.

This contract was awarded to Habitat Restoration Resources, Inc., as part of the federal stimulus funds program to increase employment opportunities.

“We are happy and pleased to announce these job openings, especially with Titusville area residents facing such high unemployment rates and few employment opportunities,” said Laurel Egan, President of Habitat Restoration Resources, Inc. “Our goal is to return sensitive environmental areas to a more natural state and to create financial opportunities for the Titusville-area workers who are looking for employment.”

These positions will be temporary and lasting approximately six months. The job requirements consist of working 10-hour workdays, four days a week. The jobs will entail operating chainsaws in very harsh conditions with biting inspects and extreme heat. Work will be performed in very remote locations in the Merritt Island National Wildlife Refuge.

Applicants must be able to pass security screenings for working in restricted areas of the Space Center. Some of the basic requirements include being legally allowed to work in the U.S. with no felony convictions. Pay rate is set at up to $10 per hour.

Habitat Restoration Resources, Inc., is a drug-free workplace and an Equal Employment Opportunity Provider.

Habitat Restoration Resources, Inc., was formed in 2000 and has worked on dozens of county, state and federal contracts throughout the state of Florida, specializing in eradication of exotic invasive plants from natural areas.
