A top official at the Interior Department left the government last month.
Adam Suess, who joined the administration last March and served as acting assistant secretary for land and minerals management and, most recently, as senior counsel to Interior Secretary Doug Burgum, is now an attorney at the Washington law firm Squire Patton Boggs.
Suess is a principal at the firm’s Environmental, Safety & Health Practice Group, according to a news release.
“I’m grateful and excited to join such an incredible, deep, talented group of legal and policy professionals!” Suess wrote on social media Feb. 26.
