Flood
Why a Dam
The Kootenai River flowed wildly before the dam was built, causing floods in Montana, Idaho, and British Columbia, Canada.
The Libby Dam was built to provide flood protection as well as an additional source of power to meet increasing energy demands.
Construction began in 1966 and finished in 1972.
One of the reasons we went to see this dam is that my husband and Father
Worked on it for the first three years of construction.
We are dam people.
To see it finished is a moment of pride and fascination.
