Philadelphia officials Sunday afternoon rescinded their recommendation that residents use bottled drinking water after a toxic spill in the Delaware River. The spill from a chemical plant upstream Friday night in Bucks County had prompted precautionary bottled-water alerts Sunday morning and afternoon, city officials said. Testing determined there's no contamination in the river near the intake for the city's water system nor in the system itself, Michael Carroll, a city deputy managing director, said an a video news conference Sunday evening. The intake had been shut down but reopened temporarily early Sunday to ensure the system had a minimum level of water to maintain pressure for firefighting and other uses, officials said. In a notice Sunday night, the Philadelphia Water Department said tap water would be safe to drink through at least the end of the day Monday. Officials will provide updates on social media, they said. Acknowledging a run on bottled water in the city, officials said there's no need to hoard bottled water and suggested people use clean, empty containers to store tap water now in case the situation changes. "Residents should try to maintain two days of water," said Carroll, the deputy managing director of Philadelphia's Office of Transportation Infrastructure and Sustainability. Early Sunday he had said that contaminants hadn’t yet been found but that there was no guarantee the water would remain pure, according to NBC Philadelphia.
