If it's coming directly from your tap or the store bought water jugs, don't worry about it. When I brew extract batches, I use water from the tap and have never had an issue.

Yes.
The chlorine in your tap water, or the oxoniation (is that a word?) of gallon jugs does the sanitizing for you (for the most part).
