Statement from DEP Commissioner Bradley Campbell regarding the Delaware River Oil Spill

As you may know, DEP is now working with the US Coast Guard to respond to a spill that now extends more than 50 miles on the Delaware River. We are asking for your help in the cleanup effort by reporting oiled areas and helping us locate wildlife injured by the spill. If you see shoreline areas where oil can be cleaned up, please call 267-765-3439. If you see wildlife affected by oil, whether dead or alive, please contact 215-365-1558.

Please protect your own health and safety by avoiding any direct contact with any oil or wildlife. And if you need up-to-date information, please go to www.incidentinfo.com
