Employee of the Month
July 2010
David McMichael, Environmental Specialist - Natural Resources
Dave has a great deal of knowledge and experience with native plants. He has used these skills to assist the Engineering and Planning departments with native vegetation surveys for numerous projects here at Prado and at Field Headquarters. He is constantly trying to improve on our native plant nursery, for which he has been very successful at growing some local natives from cuttings and from seed, saving the District from having to purchase these plants from other nurseries.
Dave consistently takes on more then his share of the workload, accomplishing many different tasks at once. He is good at prioritizing his schedule and has seemed to figure out the max workload for a span of time while still leaving room for that task that might come up unannounced. Although his plate is full, he has been experimenting with placing motion cameras around the Basin to photograph the local wildlife. Some of those images can be seen on OCWD.com. He sets a positive example for other employees. He is very punctual and usually the first one to arrive and often stays late to finish up any loose ends. For all of these reasons and many more, David was selected for Employee of the Month.
Congratulations David!
