Our catchment tank is right outside both our bedroom window and the guest room and I would like to know how difficult and expensive it would be to move about 50 ft back from it's present position or is that even feasible? Really dislike looking at that every time I look out back. Live in HPP

If the tank is a galvanized or doughboy type it can be disassembled and moved if in good (unrusted) condition. You would probably need to call in a bulldozer to level a spot and add base course rock and sand. You would also probably need a new liner, they get brittle as they age. You might call one of the catchment companies for an estimate, look under "tanks" in the BI phonebook. I have that same view out my bedroom window, but no good place to move the tank.
