The Louisiana wind farm technicians need to have certain abilities in order to perform the work. Those abilities include:

• Finger Dexterity — The ability to make precisely coordinated movements of the fingers of one or both hands to grasp, manipulate, or assemble very small objects.
• Near Vision — The ability to see details at close range (within a few feet of the observer).
• Oral Comprehension — The ability to listen to and understand information and ideas presented through spoken words and sentences.
• Arm-Hand Steadiness — The ability to keep your hand and arm steady while moving your arm or while holding your arm and hand in one position.
• Deductive Reasoning — The ability to apply general rules to specific problems to produce answers that make sense.
• Manual Dexterity — The ability to quickly move your hand, your hand together with your arm, or your two hands to grasp, manipulate, or assemble objects.
• Control Precision — The ability to quickly and repeatedly adjust the controls of a machine or a vehicle to exact positions.
• Inductive Reasoning — The ability to combine pieces of information to form general rules or conclusions (includes finding a relationship among seemingly unrelated events).
• Information Ordering — The ability to arrange things or actions in a certain order or pattern according to a specific rule or set of rules (e.g., patterns of numbers, letters, words, pictures, mathematical operations).
• Multilimb Coordination — The ability to coordinate two or more limbs (for example, two arms, two legs, or one leg and one arm) while sitting, standing, or lying down. It does not involve performing the activities while the whole body is in motion.
• Oral Expression — The ability to communicate information and ideas in speaking so others will understand.
• Visualization — The ability to imagine how something will look after it is moved around or when its parts are moved or rearranged.
• Written Comprehension — The ability to read and understand information and ideas presented in writing.
• Category Flexibility — The ability to generate or use different sets of rules for combining or grouping things in different ways.
