Sweep the Lone Tree Point shoreline at Rodeo clean each month (2026-07-19)

Lone Tree Point is Rodeo's one piece of public bay shoreline — a small beach and bluff on San Pablo Bay squeezed between industrial neighbors. It collects strait-borne plastic and picnic litter that feeds straight back into the bay. The community that lives with the fenceline deserves its one beach clean. Standard: California Coastal Cleanup data-card protocol; SDG 14 (Life Below Water). Proof: Before/after beach photos plus weighed tally Method (California Coastal Cleanup data-card protocol; SDG 14 (Life Below Water).): 1. Walk the public trail and upper beach at Lone Tree Point with bags, gloves, and grabbers. 2. Collect litter from the dry sand and trail edges only, above the wet tideline. 3. Tally item types on the data card and sort recycling. 4. Weigh bags and stage them at the parking-area bins. 5. Photograph the beach before and after plus the tally card. Done when: Before/after beach photos plus weighed tally

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 beach photos plus weighed tally

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 60–120 minutes. Method of record: NOAA coastal habitat (eelgrass / salt marsh) extent + condition

Bring

• tide table
• GPS phone
• quadrat frame
• measuring tape
• boots/waders
• camera

Steps

1. 1. Check the tide table; plan to work the low tide; tell someone your plan and return time.
2. 2. Navigate to the habitat edge; record GPS waypoints along the patch/edge.
3. 3. Photograph the meadow/marsh at low tide.
4. 4. Record shoot/stem density per quadrat and estimate patch extent (or edge scarp height for marsh).
5. 5. Note condition (epiphytes, dieback, wrack) and adjacent land use/armoring.
6. 6. Enter density, extent, condition, GPS, photos into the proof record; sign.

If it does not match the plan

• Soft mud / rising tide -> stop and retreat; safety over data.
• Edge retreat or heavy dieback observed -> flag for living-shoreline / protection planning.

What counts as done

• Density (shoots/stems per quadrat) recorded
• Patch extent or edge position recorded via GPS
• Condition + adjacent-use note recorded
• Low-tide photos + GPS waypoints

Proof is measured against these, not judged by taste.
