Notwithstanding any other provision of this Part, selective certification lists may be established and selective certification initiated by the Personnel Director as provided in this section.

(a) If the Personnel Director determines that special skills are needed for less than all positions in a class, such tests as may measure these special skills may be administered on a pass-or-fail basis as a part of the examination for the class.
