Job Description The NYC Department of Environmental Protection (DEP) enriches the environment and protects public health for all New Yorkers by providing 1.1 billion gallons of high quality drinking water, managing wastewater and stormwater, and reducing air, noise, and hazardous materials pollution. DEP is the largest combined municipal water and wastewater utility in the country, with nearly 6,000 employees. DEP's water supply system is comprised of 19 reservoirs and 3 controlled lakes throughout the system’s 2,000 square mile watershed that extends 125 miles north and west of the City. New York City has approximately 140,000 catch basins, 114,000 hydrants, 90,000 valves, 14 gatehouses, 3 reservoirs, 68 groundwater wells, a 100 million gallon underground storage tank and 7,000 miles each of both sanitary sewers and water mains. The responsibility of maintaining these vast networks falls under the Department of Environmental Protection’s Bureau of Water and Sewer Operations (BWSO). The primary responsibilities of the Bureau of Water and Sewer Operations are: the operation, maintenance and protection of the City’s drinking water and wastewater collection (sewer) systems; the protection of adjacent waterways; and the development and protection of the Department’s Capital Water and Sewer Design Program. The Bureau also approves and inspects water and sewer connections performed by licensed plumbers and/or authorized contractors. In addition, the Bureau has overall responsibility for the approval and inspection of all public and private construction projects which could impact on the City’s water or sewer systems. The Bureau is also responsible for the operation of the Staten Island Bluebelt. This is an ecologically sound, cost effective natural alternative to storm sewers, which occupies approximately 15 square miles of land in the South Richmond area of Staten Island. This project preserves streams, ponds and other wetland ("bluebelt") areas, allowing them to perform their natural function of conveying, storing and filtering storm water. These areas also provide important community open spaces and a diverse wildlife habitat. Within the Capital Program Management (CPM) Team, the Chief of Strategic Planning is seeking a Data Analyst to manage budgeting work, analyze data for strategic planning, and for project delivery processes, assess data management needs. The Data Analyst will prepare and track capital budget plans and project delivery status through extensive coordination with internal and external stakeholders. Responsibilities include identifying and tracking variances between planned and actual expenditures, and comparing current and future project budgets against previous budget plans. This role calls for the analysis, identification, and reporting of data gaps and needs for the development of a capital investment management strategy. The Data Analyst will work closely with BWSO’s Operations Analysis & Regulatory Compliance group to ultimately develop and manage a coordinated data flow to increase the efficiency of capital planning workflow processes. ***IN ORDER TO BE CONSIDERED FOR AN INTERVIEW, ALL CANDIDATES MUST HAVE FILED FOR THE MOST RECENT CIVIL SERVICE EXAM FOR ADMINISTRATICE STAFF ANALYST, OR BE PERMANENT IN THE CIVIL SERVICE TITLE OF ADMINISTRATIVE STAFF ANALYST.
