Just so folks know- brown doesn't equal gross dirty water, minerals you NEED and want are often a color you wouldn't particularly find attractive when in concentrated amounts.
Pfft should have seen my well water, high in sulfur and minerals. Adding chlorine bleach to it would instantly turn it dark brown. It was like a science fair project.
Looks like a small presence of Iron. Just an aesthetic issue that some ground water sources have. Your water provider should be filtrating for it if the MCL is within a certain range. At least it’s not manganese!
