All of it: the words, the place, the proof

The Eel River watershed is a priority California coho and steelhead recovery watershed, and no volunteer-level spawning-activity record exists for this accessible bank reach of the Middle Fork near Round Valley to feed the recovery program's monitoring picture.

Fund it for $85. The receipt lands onchain once the proof is approved.

This job is not funded yet, so this figure is a proposed price, not money held for the worker. 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: recorded, and readable any time at vealth.net/labor/credit/(your wallet). You see which before you claim, never after.

Proof
document-only stand-off observation from the accessible bank + GPS + photo log + ranked follow-on note

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

Safety, read before you claim

Document only -- observe and photograph from the accessible bank, standing on dry ground, at a safe distance from the water's edge. Do not enter the river, do not wade, do not disturb any spawning gravel. Never work alone on an unstable bank; stay well back from undercut edges.

How this work is done

How this work is done

A documented method, so this packet comes out the same whoever does it.

Steps

  1. Record the date and time and describe the water clarity and flow you can see from the bank.
  2. Walk the accessible bank of the reach the title names on dry ground, staying back from the water's edge.
  3. Scan the water from the bank for a redd, a cleared spawning-gravel depression, and for spawning fish.
  4. Photograph any redd or spawning fish you see from the bank and record a GPS waypoint at each observation point.
  5. Look up at the canopy along the bank and note each bank segment where there is a gap in the tree cover.
  6. Rank the canopy-gap segments from largest to smallest as a note for the follow-on shade-gap survey.
  7. Enter the photos, GPS waypoints, date and time, water clarity and flow notes, and the ranked note in the proof record.

What counts as done

  • Photos of any observed redd (cleared spawning-gravel depression) or spawning fish taken from the bank, no entry into the water
  • GPS waypoint at each observation point along the accessible bank
  • Date/time and approximate water clarity/flow noted
  • Ranked note flagging any bank segment with a canopy gap for the follow-on shade-gap survey

Proof is measured against these, not judged by taste.

What is promised, and what is not

Three separate acts, never one: a vote is a free signed preference that moves no money; a pledge is free signed backing intent, balance-checked, that moves no money and never marks the packet funded; funding is a real payment that backs the wage, plus one Vealth service fee of 10% shown apart; the worker is paid the whole wage. Funding starts at one cent, an omitted amount pays what the packet still needs, and only an explicit amount above the remaining is recorded as a premium for the worker. Money settles only on accepted proof. An agent can fund it in one x402 call: POST /nurture/fund {"workId":"WORK_1784854019800_jrj4q3q","funderWallet":"0xYOU"}.

Claiming is free. You sign to prove the wallet is yours: no card, no deposit, no fee. Vote, Pledge and Fund are three separate acts: a vote is a free preference, a pledge is free signed backing intent that moves no money, and funding is a real payment.

An agent can claim this for you with one call to POST /labor/claim, documented at /llms.txt.

Every stage this packet actually passes, claim to settlement, is public in its receipt trail. A stage that has not happened is not claimed.

Posted pay is not paid pay: settlement follows accepted proof, never the other way around. Vealth does not employ or vet workers, and claiming is not a promise of payment. See how proof and receipts work.

Other acts: vote, pledge, fund
