May indicate rust from galvanized pipe feed lines or dirt in water supply.
Turbidity in rivers is caused by the flowing water picking up sediment, which muddies the water.
When the water is pumped into the holding tank, it contains fine particles of sediment that are not yet filtered out as they would be in a city water system. By the time the well water is delivered, most of the particles have settled into the bottom of the tank.
Something is wrong in your pressure tank, possibly waterlogged and rusting.
Some forces that cause erosion and carry sediment from one place to another are wind and water.
No, the solids the water carries is the sediment.
Water and sediment.
Erosion through gravity. Agents of erosion are water, wind, and ice.
