# Water Pollution - Sediment, 56 Balmoral Ln, Canterbury, Christchurch 8081, New Zealand

Christchurch · filed 1 February 2026 · report 7657731
https://www.chch.live/report/7657731

> Our water supply has been full of brown sediment and was completely brown on several occasions over the last three weeks. We still have undissolved black particles in the water as pictured and the water is not completely clear. We are very concerned about the quality of our water and fear it is contaminated. It is also clogging up our inline filters which is expensive to get cleared by a plumber. Our neighbours are experiencing the same issues, it’s not just our house supply.
