TL;DR Summary

Philadelphia officials have lifted the bottled-water alert after a chemical spill in the Delaware River. Testing has shown no contamination in the river near the intake for the city's water system nor in the system itself. 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. The Philadelphia Water Department said tap water would be safe to drink through at least the end of the day Monday.
