Document a shoreline fish die-off event, the exposed lakebed shoreline and derelict marina at Bombay Beach, CA 92257

The Salton Sea's recurring low-oxygen and algal-bloom conditions periodically kill large numbers of tilapia that wash up along Bombay Beach's shoreline, and there is no standing photo/event log to trigger a timely cleanup before the smell and health concern grows. Standard: California Department of Fish and Wildlife (CDFW) / Salton Sea Management Program shoreline fish-die-off event documentation practice; entry/document-only. SDG 14.1/6.6. Proof: document-only photo set of the affected shoreline stretch + GPS + estimated extent + timestamp Method (Community-coordination hazard survey (documentation + coordination only; severity-tagged), ~30-60 min): 1. Walk the corridor from a safe path; record a GPS waypoint at each hazard. 2. Photograph each hazard. 3. Classify the hazard type and assign a severity tag (minor|moderate|severe|critical). 4. Name the responsible handoff target (BID / city agency / utility). 5. Enter each hazard's type, severity, GPS, photo, and handoff target into the proof record; sign. Equipment: GPS phone, camera, hi-vis vest, severity-tag reference (minor|moderate|severe|critical) Done when: Each hazard photographed with a GPS waypoint; Severity tag assigned per hazard; Hazard type classified; Named handoff target per hazard

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 30–60 minutes. Method of record: Community-coordination hazard survey (documentation + coordination only; severity-tagged)

Bring

• GPS phone
• camera
• hi-vis vest
• severity-tag reference (minor|moderate|severe|critical)

Steps

1. 1. Walk the corridor from a safe path; record a GPS waypoint at each hazard.
2. 2. Photograph each hazard.
3. 3. Classify the hazard type and assign a severity tag (minor|moderate|severe|critical).
4. 4. Name the responsible handoff target (BID / city agency / utility).
5. 5. Enter each hazard's type, severity, GPS, photo, and handoff target into the proof record; sign.

If it does not match the plan

• NEVER perform repair or enter the roadway/public right-of-way -> documentation and coordination only.
• Any severity:critical (e.g., live downed wire, open utility vault) -> flag immediately to the responsible agency; keep clear.

What counts as done

• Each hazard photographed with a GPS waypoint
• Severity tag assigned per hazard
• Hazard type classified
• Named handoff target per hazard

Proof is measured against these, not judged by taste.
