Haul the flood-season debris off invited Stratford yards

Stratford yards still hold water-damaged fence sections, ruined outdoor goods, and windblown debris from the high-water year, and disposal is a long drive many households cannot make. An invited haul-out crew clears in a day what has sat for a season. Standard: FEMA flood-recovery documentation guidance; SDG 11 Sustainable Cities and Communities. Proof: Before/after yard photos plus disposal receipt Method (FEMA flood-recovery documentation guidance; SDG 11 Sustainable Cities and Communities.): 1. Confirm the household invitation and walk the yard together to agree the haul list — dry, outdoor debris only. 2. Skip and note anything moldy from inside walls, chemical containers, or brittle roofing sheets — those wait for a credentialed crew. 3. Load with a partner and haul to the transfer station; keep the receipt. 4. Rake the cleared areas. 5. Photograph before, after, and the disposal receipt, with GPS and date. Done when: Before/after yard photos plus disposal receipt

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.

Before/after yard photos plus disposal receipt

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 45–90 minutes. Method of record: FEMA floodplain + green-infrastructure siting screen

Bring

• GPS phone
• tape/ruler for deposition depth
• metals field kit (if sediment screen in scope)
• boots + gloves
• camera

Steps

1. 1. Confirm post-event conditions are safe; navigate to the site; record GPS.
2. 2. Photograph deposited sediment / affected area.
3. 3. Measure deposition depth at representative points.
4. 4. If a sediment contaminant screen is in scope, run the metals field kit and record values.
5. 5. Note debris, hazards, and the extent (sketch).
6. 6. Enter depth, any analytes, hazard notes, GPS, photos into the proof record; sign.

If it does not match the plan

• Unstable ground / submerged debris / contaminated water -> document from safe footing; do not enter.
• Elevated metals in deposited sediment -> flag before any reuse; recommend lab confirm.

What counts as done

• Deposition depth recorded at representative points
• Metals screen recorded (if in scope)
• Debris/hazard note + extent sketch
• GPS waypoint + timestamped photos

Proof is measured against these, not judged by taste.
