> I am in the process of new construction.  I am told that I will need a cistern tank to hold water.  I want the tank to be safe and free of chemicals and pollutants.  Please suggest the safest material to use for this tank. Norwesco offers a 1 piece molded below ground tank made of 100% virgin resin.  What is that and is it safe?  I can buy a cement tank but I am concerned about the chemical additives.  Your help would be much appreciated as I must make this decision this week.
> I thank you in advance.
