# Along any dug dead level contour (which is your collection area) choose where you can construct your storage tank. In consideration of nearby crops, all soils that allow rapid percolation should be near the storage tanks. This is because your soil quickly loses water and that's where your plants are likely to show signs of moisture stress during the dry spell.
