N. WISCONSIN - After a year-long search, Governor Tony Evers has chosen a new leader for the Wisconsin Department of Natural Resources. On Monday, Evers announced that Karen Hyun will take over the post. Hyun has worked as chief of staff of the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration since 2021. She worked as the National Audubon Society’s director of water and coastal policy before becoming vice president of coastal conservation in 2018. She also served as deputy assistant secretary for fish, wildlife and parks at the Department of the Interior in 2015. The position has been vacant since Adam Payne quit in early November 2023 after just 10 months on the job.
