Living and Dying in Libby

Brian Plonka

The Spokesman-Review

A worker for the EPA enters the sealed home of Libby resident Mike Powers before the start of a cleaning scenario that will measure the levels of airborne asbestos fibers in the air. Like many families before them the Powers family had to relocate to a hotel while the tests were being conducted. No one knows what will happen with the homes where unacceptable levels of asbestos are found.
