From: Web Beadle '� Subject Laboratory Technician
Departmental Personnel Officer Position
This is a request to add one 40/40 Laboratory Technician position in
our Public Health Laboratory, without offset.
The Department recently received verbal approval from the State
Department of AIDS that Federal funding has been approved for us to
conduct an HIV Prevalence Survey Program over a five year period.
The attached memo dated 2/8/88 and supporting documentation confirms
this funding approval and provides a general outline of anticipated
program activities. A number of new positions will be necessary
including a Laboratory Technician to be assigned to our Public Health
Laboratory. The balance of the needed positions will be requested at
a later date. Duties of the proposed Laboratory Technician position
are as outlined in an attachment to this memo.
Although this position will be 100 percent Federally funded as part
of a time limited project, it is expected to continue" for five years
commencing 5/1/88. That being the case, we feel classified as opposed
to project status is appropriate in this case. Any necessary expen-
ditures for supplies or equipment will also be paid from the project
funding. We anticipate filling this new position permanently from the
exam now underway.
Please shoot for placement of the attached P-300 on the 3/22/88 Board
agenda.
