What the work involves

Bare, unshaded bank segments raise summer water temperature for coho and steelhead in this reach, and no record exists of exactly which segments most need new riparian canopy to feed the recovery program's shade target.

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: recorded, and readable any time at vealth.net/labor/credit/(your wallet). You see which before you claim, never after.

Proof
document-only bank-walk photo log + canopy-gap segment measurement + GPS + ranked follow-on list

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

The creator wallet. Its signature is what approves proof and settles the wage.

How this work is done

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

Bring

  • kick net or D-frame net
  • white sorting tray
  • forceps
  • sample jars + ethanol
  • family-level ID key
  • GPS phone
  • waders/boots
  • camera

Steps

  1. 1. Navigate to a riffle habitat; record GPS; photograph the reach.
  2. 2. Disturb the substrate upstream of the net for a fixed time/area (kick sample) per RBP.
  3. 3. Transfer the catch to the sorting tray; pick and sort organisms.
  4. 4. Identify to family; tally counts; record EPT (Ephemeroptera/Plecoptera/Trichoptera) taxa.
  5. 5. Compute the biotic index score from the tally.
  6. 6. Note substrate and habitat condition.
  7. 7. Enter tally, EPT count, index score, GPS, photos into the proof record; sign.

What counts as done

  • Photos of each shaded and unshaded bank segment, taken from the accessible bank
  • Approximate length of each unshaded gap recorded (paced or taped from the bank)
  • GPS waypoints marking each gap's start and end
  • Ranked list naming the follow-on invasive-cane-removal and willow-staking jobs for each gap

Proof is measured against these, not judged by taste.

The money and the proof

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. 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_1784854034553_r2b7tuo","funderWallet":"0xYOU"}.

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.
