BEST Society in partnership with ConocoPhillips and Skycommunity introduced the rainwater harvesting system. Stored rainwater is a good standby in times of emergencies such as during periods of extreme drought or in some areas where water supplies may not be available or dependable, collected rainwater is the least expensive option. Water tanks were delivered all the way from Kota Kinabalu to Pitas on 20 December 2016, which took approximately 4 hours of travelling patches of gravel road.

25 households have the privilege to enjoy water right from their taps. Beneficiaries paid a contribution fee intended to ensure adequate maintenance and care of the system and to develop a sense of responsibility and ownership for good keeping of their tanks.
