font-family:Tahoma'>As you may already know that Heather Contrino, our National
Household Travel Survey (NHTS) program manager accepted a promotion to a team
leader position in the office of FHWA's Transportation Policy Studies leading
the policy studies team. During her tenure with the NHTS program, she took the
NHTS program to a new level and was an incredible asset to the office. I am
certain that the void she left behind is a huge one. <o:p></o:p></span></font></p>

<p class=MsoNormal><font size=3 face=Tahoma><span style='font-size:12.0pt;
font-family:Tahoma'>Currently we are seeking applicants for the NHTS Program
Manager position at the GS grade 14 level to manage the NHTS program. While the
2009 NHTS data collection is complete, data analysis and information
dissemination is still a significant challenge. In addition, we are faced with
challenges including the study of alternative survey methods for future
surveys, enhancement of our current partnerships, and establishment of new coalitions.
The ideal candidate shall have broad knowledge on large scale survey design and
implementation, ability to evaluate and identify improvement opportunities for
the survey program, and skills to develop effective working relationships at
all levels inside and outside the organization. The position is located in
FHWA’s HQ office in <st1:place w:st="on"><st1:City w:st="on">Washington</st1:City>

official web publication on the position is live. In the mean time, if
