“There is no impact from this event on customers of the North Penn Water Authority. Our water is continuously monitored and tested around the clock every day. Our customers can be assured that their water is completely safe.”
Anthony Bellitto, executive director of NPWA
“All retail service water customers served directly by the North Wales Water Authority, as well as all bulk customers receiving water from the NWWA and our Forest Park Treatment plant in Chalfont may rest assured that the recent spill in the Bristol area of Lower Bucks County does NOT IMPACT the NWWA water supply in any manner.”

Aqua Water also took steps to ensure their customers would not be impacted by the Delaware River chemical spill.
“Aqua has not detected any chemicals related to the Delaware River spill in our drinking water from the very beginning.
