Resource Planner I is the trainee level for the professional resource planner series. Incumbents initially work under general supervision and, as experience is gained, they perform a broader range of duties and are expected to advance to the
Resource Planner II level within one year. Resource Planner II is the journey level class in the resource planner series. Incumbents independently perform professional environmental and resource planning assignments with limited supervision. This class differs from Resource Planner I in the complexity of work and level of independence in completing assignments which generally include the evaluation of biologic, geologic and related environmental issues.
Resource Planner III is the senior or advanced journey level in the resource planning series. Positions in this class are responsible for complex long-range environmental and resource planning studies, analyses or project review in the fields of watershed management, water quality, water resources, solid waste management, geology, flood control, erosion control or related disciplines.
Resource Planner IV is the department resource and specific subject area expert in the Resource Planner series. Incumbents work under general direction to perform the most controversial and technically complex environmental and resource planning assignments; ensure quality assurance standards are maintained for resource planning studies; track, monitor and advocate legislation; develop policy; and may serve as project leader on multifaceted programs. Incumbents in this class receive administrative supervision from a Supervising Planner or Principal Planner. They receive technical supervision from a Principal Planner because of their technical expertise and responsibility for the most controversial and technically complex assignments
