Although the functions and responsibilities of each of the OES "program
areas" (i.e., Federal Activities, Partners for Wildlife, Endangered Species, and
Environmental Quality) are somewhat discrete, all OES staff, including
Administrative personnel, maintain a broad knowledge base concerning the full spectrum of
Ecological Services and other Service responsibilities. Staff working primarily within one
program may be assigned to tasks in any of the other areas of responsibility, depending
upon comparative workloads and individual skills, interests, and expertise. All staff also
are assigned Public Outreach duties related to their area of expertise.
