Philadelphia's tap water remains safe to drink at least until 11:59 p.m. Wednesday, March 29., city officials said. The city's water supply from the Delaware River so far has not been contaminated from the chemical spill in Bucks County. The water will continue to be tested for several days to ensure that the water that enters the Baxter Water Treatment Plant is safe to consume.
City officials assured residents on Monday that the water was safe to drink throughout the day, but added that they are continuing to test the water supply.
