Responsibilities require the exercise of initiative and independent judgment in troubleshooting malfunctions and determining the proper method of repair. Employees in this class are subject to a yearly rotational 24-hour call-out (by assignment). Employees are required to use appropriate safety equipment and procedures in performing assignments.

This class is FLSA nonexempt.
