There's even a bridge (a drawbridge in fact) right there from the town where this happened (Bristol) that crosses over into New Jersey (to Burlington, NJ) -

A chemical spill into the Delaware River last week did not impact New Jersey's treated water, however, New Jersey American Water is taking some precautions.

A voluntary water conservation notice was issued by NJAW for customers in Burlington, Camden and Gloucester counties, who were being asked to limit their non-essential water use following the Friday, March 24 latex spill in Bristol Township, PA.

Out of an abundance of caution, Pennsylvania residents along the Delaware River were urged to drink from bottled water, as officials were not 100 percent certain that the drinking water was not tainted.

The NJAW is "monitoring the source water and performing quality tests at various points in the treatment process and throughout the distribution system," the company said in a news release.
