Schweitzer Adviser New Deputy Director at FWP
Mike Volesky replaces former Butte legislator Art Noonan, who recently left for a job at Northwestern Energy. Volesky is scheduled to start the new job next month.
The Independent Record reports that Volesky’s salary will increase from about $74,000 to more than $96,000 annually. The new job also extends beyond the end of Schweitzer’s last term, which expires at year’s end.
FWP Director Joe Maurier says Volesky was a good fit for the post because of his experience on issues like bison and wolf management.
Volesky has worked for the governor since 2004.
