Posted by: Rhona Reid On April 14, 2023 2:00 pm

Philadelphia Chemical Spill: What Would You Do in a Water Emergency?

Posted by: Rhona Reid On March 31, 2023 6:40 pm

On March 24, a leak at the Trinseo Altuglas chemical facility in Bristol Township, Philadelphia caused up to 120,000 liters of latex emulsion to spill into the Delaware River. 

Concerned residents were told to continue to use tap water for the days immediately following the incident. The reason for this is the contaminated river water would take time to reach and enter the water treatment plant, and from there, the taps of local homes and businesses.
