The Air Resources Supervisor I (ARS I) is the first line supervisor of a section of professional and technical employees performing complex air pollution control and engineering work and the first level to which administrative responsibility is assigned. The ARS I supervises and is responsible for data gathered, quality assured, and third-party verified under the Mandatory Reporting Regulation, in support of multiple CARB programs including the Cap-and-Trade Program, the COI Fees Program, and the Statewide GHG Inventory. The ARS I works directly with third -party verifiers to provide training, accreditation, technical support, and oversight. The ARS I also oversees and supports staff who perform those activities. The position requires close interaction and teamwork with CARB staff and management across Branches and Divisions, as well as staff and management from other public and private organizations.

This position may require the ARS I to voluntarily agree to a background criminal and credit check to ensure the integrity of the carbon market program due to the position's access to market sensitive information.
