Philly warns of odors wafting from shuttered refinery this week

Coatesville, Doylestown, Audubon, New Hope and Solebury water providers are among 22 that fail to meet state requirements to reduce the “forever chemicals” in drinking water.

The average ratepayer could face a monthly bill of about $91 starting in September, and almost $97 dollars the following year if the increase is approved.

The creek is not used for drinking water, and officials say no other source of drinking water has been affected.
