The Office of the Solicitor (SOL) is the authorized legal representative for the Department of the Interior and its component agencies. The Southeast Regional Office of SOL provides general legal representation for the Secretary of the Interior in Washington, DC, and for the regional offices of the U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service, National Park Service, U.S. Geological Survey, and Bureau of Indian Affairs. My position consisted of legal research and the writing of legal memorandums used to assist clients in various areas of law, including statutory and regulatory interpretation, personnel cases (i.e., EEOC), torts, land acquisition and use, environmental and natural resources issues (i.e. NEPA, Endangered Species Act, and natural resources damages under CERCLA), Freedom of Information Act requests, and matters involving Indian tribes. Additionally, although the U.S. Department of Justice acts as trial counsel in litigation involving client agencies, SOL provides litigation support and acts as a liaison with the agencies.
