The South Carolina Law Enforcement Assistance Program (SCLEAP) was born out of the actual needs of tate police officers serving in the field as well as non-sworn administrative staff members and their families. Modeled on a concept currently used by the FBI, SCLEAP is an employee assistance program which provides services as well as maintaingin a cadre of volunteer chaplains across the state. The staff and volunteers are on-call 24 hours per day, 7 days per week, in order to better serve the needs of all SLED employees.
The SCLEAP is a unique partnership between SLED, South Carolina Department of Natural Resources, South Carolina Department of Public Safety, and the South Carolina Department of Probation, Parole, and Pardon. It serves more than 2,500 state police officers as well as non-sworn employees and all family members. Each agency has an equal claim on the energy and resources of professional staff.
The Rocket Sled Track provides a controlled environment for high-velocity impact, aerodynamic, acceleration, and other related testing for both small and large test items. Tests can be designed to simulate unique scenarios and to provide the maximum data from each test. The facility provides a 10,000-foot track for testing items at very high speeds, and a 2,000-foot railroad gauge track for testing very large, heavy items at moderate speeds. The combination of ingenuity, experience, and instrumentation available at this facility makes it unique for research, test, and evaluation purposes.
The Rocket Sled Track incorporates exceptional instrumentation capabilities, including telemetry, hardened on-board data recorders, hardwired data acquisition systems, high-speed quantitative imaging systems, and flash x-ray. These systems gather data from a variety of instruments and transducers. A vast array of non-contact, high-speed 2D and 3D imaging measurements are possible, and are described on our photometrics page. Data acquisition systems are capable of acquiring data at sample rates up to 1 MHz.
Traditional sled tests accelerate a test item attached to a rocket sled into a stationary target (forward ballistic testing). Although this type of test more closely imitates the desired impact conditions, it typically limits the data acquisition capabilities, due to the use of on-board data recorders. Also, the coordination of forward ballistic tests can be complex (two sleds, water brakes, cable cutters, etc.). A reverse ballistic test, pioneered at the SNL Rocket Sled Track, accelerates the target into a stationary test item. This method allows a greater number of instrumentation channels at greater sample rates and higher reliability.
The relationship between acceleration, velocity, and distance traveled by a test item can be simulated in a variety of ways. Positive and negative acceleration levels up to thousands of g are possible.
During the summer when the rent is exchanged with dog chores, it is important to understand that even though there is no money exchanged and tenants have other paying jobs, this job should rank as number one, most important because your housing depends on it. If you miss your chores, then you have no place to live. Each apartment rent is equivalent to $600.00 per month and chore wages are equal to $10.00 per hour. Each apartment tenants must complete a total of 60 hours per month, which is about 15 hours/week. So if there are 2 people in an apartment, they each must complete 30 hours per month or about 7 hours/week, approximately 3-4 mornings per week.
You must be in above average physical shape for this job, summer or winter. Duties include lifting 50 lbs bags of dog food, 5 gallon buckets of water, dog food and dog poop. Handling of large, strong dogs is occasionally required. There is no such thing as calling in sick on this job since there are animals relying on you to take care of them.
Applicant does not need previous sled dog experience, although any type of guiding experience or employment in the customer service industry is helpful. Animal experience of all types is also helpful. Any experience with hard physical labor with extended work hours is appreciated. Must be a team player and have good communication skills.
A copy of the JHI training manual will be given to each employee upon arrival which includes tips on all the above mentioned items along with the Teton Science School agenda and other suggested reading lists.
Guides are responsible for changing the utilities (electric and telephone) in each apartment into their names when they arrive and when they leave. Cell phones do not get reception at the kennel due to numerous mountain ranges. Water is included with the apartment.
Starting salary at $1,500.00 per month paid bi- monthly on the 1st and 16th of each month. First Salary paycheck is on Jan 1st. First salary pay period runs from December 16 through Dec 31. If a guide takes a tour before Dec 16, they will be paid $50 per trip. Any gratuities paid by credit card will be added to next paycheck and taxes will be deducted.
Both a Minnesota man testing a snowmobile for his employer in the Alaska backcountry and the company have been cited for reckless driving after the machine slammed into a sled dog team on a training run in December, killing three dogs.
The State of Alaska charged Erik Johnson, of Roseau, Minnesota, and Minnesota-based Polaris Inc. on Feb. 8 with the misdemeanor in the crash near the interior Alaska community of Cantwell, located about 210 miles (338 kilometers) north of Anchorage.
According to an affidavit from Alaska State Trooper Noah Belt, Parker was traveling westbound on the highway when he saw a group of snowmobiles coming at him. He said he began using his 1,000-lumen headlamp to make himself known.
Last November, a snowmobile struck a sled dog team on a training run on the same highway. The team belonged to five-time Iditarod Trail Sled Dog Race champion Dallas Seavey, but he was not running the team at the time. Two dogs were killed in the accident, and seven others were injured. The driver was cited for negligent driving.
