The reservoir for Libby has become very low as the area continued to be in drought. The city was preparing an action plan that would determine responses based on the flow rate of incoming water and the amount of water stored. As of mid-August, the flow of the Fisher River just above where it flows into the Kootenai River north of Libby was about half the usual rate.
