Best Answer

Muddy water, more correctly called turbid water, contains particulate. These materials can add taste, odour, or toxic materials. They can also protect microorganisms from disinfectants. Most drinking water standards in use today have a limit on turbidity to address these concerns. Water with a turbidity level higher than the permitted level is regarded as polluted an unsuitable for consumption.
