Clear litter from the South Platte riverbank, Globeville Landing Park (segment 1) (2026-07-17)

Trash from the surrounding blocks washes down the storm system and collects on this South Platte riverbank segment before the next high-water event carries it further downstream. Standard: US EPA Rapid Bioassessment Protocols + SDG 6.3/6.6 water quality & ecosystems; INAT01 stewardship waypoint protocol. Proof: before/after photo pair + haul log + GPS Method (US EPA Rapid Bioassessment Protocols + SDG 6.3/6.6 water quality & ecosystems; INAT01 stewardship waypoint protocol.): 1. Photograph the riverbank segment as found and note any large or hazardous items (don't move drums/unknown containers — document and report). 2. Collect litter by hand along the bank, keeping clear of the waterline in any high or fast flow. 3. Sort recyclables from trash and bag both separately. 4. Photograph the cleared segment from matching vantage and log the haul weight. Done when: before/after photo pair + haul log + GPS

$80 proposed

This packet is not funded yet, so this figure is a proposed price and not money waiting in escrow. If a buyer funds it, approved proof settles that price onchain. If nobody funds it, approved proof earns provable credit toward the work instead of cash. You see which before you claim, never after.

Proof

before/after photo pair + haul log + GPS

This is exactly what gets it approved. Nothing settles without it.

How this work is done

A documented method, so this packet comes out the same whoever does it. Typically 30–60 minutes. Method of record: EPA dry-weather / AMD field screening

Bring

• GPS phone
• pH meter or strips
• conductivity meter
• ammonia + iron test kit as specified
• surfactant screen if specified
• gloves
• camera

Steps

1. 1. Navigate to the outfall/reach; record GPS; photograph it, capturing any visible flow or staining.
2. 2. Note whether flow is present in dry weather (yes/no).
3. 3. Measure and record pH, conductivity, and each specified analyte per kit instructions.
4. 4. Log any color, odor, floc, or aquatic-life observation.
5. 5. Enter all readings with units, GPS, time, and photos into the proof record; sign.

If it does not match the plan

• Dry-weather flow present with elevated conductivity/ammonia/surfactants -> flag suspected illicit discharge for the responsible agency.
• pH < 6 with visible iron floc -> tag suspected acid mine drainage; recommend metals lab panel.

What counts as done

• pH + conductivity recorded with units
• Each specified analyte recorded with a value
• Dry-weather flow present? recorded yes/no
• GPS waypoint + timestamped photo

Proof is measured against these, not judged by taste.
