Log fenceline air conditions near the West Anniston industrial corridor, from the public road only (2026-07-20)

Homes closest to the old West Anniston industrial corridor have a documented public history of air quality concern, and residents have asked for a running, plain-language log of what can be observed from the public road so the record does not rely only on official visits. Standard: EPA ambient air monitoring public record, fenceline community observation Proof: Written log with date, time, and conditions matched to a GPS-tagged observation point Method (EPA ambient air monitoring public record, fenceline community observation): 1. Stand on the public road or sidewalk facing the fenceline, never crossing it 2. Note odor, visibility, and weather conditions in a written log 3. Record the date and time of each observation 4. Log GPS coordinates for the observation point 5. Submit the log; a licensed environmental crew performs all monitoring and physical work inside the fenceline Done when: Written log with date, time, and conditions matched to a GPS-tagged observation point

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.

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: EPA NAAQS community ambient-air screening (PM2.5)

Bring

• calibrated PM2.5 monitor
• GPS phone
• wind/weather note source
• hi-vis vest
• camera

Steps

1. 1. Choose >=3 points (near-source/roadside, mid, background); record GPS at each; stay off the roadway.
2. 2. Photograph each monitoring location.
3. 3. Log PM2.5 (ug/m3) at each point over a comparable peak period.
4. 4. Record wind direction, time, and nearby source activity (e.g., truck traffic).
5. 5. Compare readings to the NAAQS reference.
6. 6. Enter the PM2.5 logs, wind/time, source note, GPS, photos into the proof record; sign.

If it does not match the plan

• Roadside work near heavy traffic -> stay off travel lanes; hi-vis at all times.
• Near-source PM2.5 well above background and NAAQS -> flag an environmental-justice exposure concern.

What counts as done

• PM2.5 logged at >=3 points (near-source / mid / background)
• Wind direction + time recorded
• Source-activity observation recorded
• GPS waypoints + location photos

Proof is measured against these, not judged by taste.
