Document yard-drainage ponding at a resident's own home on the corridor, home 2, resident homes along the North 10th Street / College Street corridor, Junction, TX 76849 (own-home) (2026-07-24)

This home's yard ponds water near the foundation after a Hill Country downpour, on thin karst soil that drains unevenly, and no record exists yet to prioritize a professional regrade. Standard: FEMA floodplain + green-infrastructure siting screen, applied here to Hill Country flash-flood-alley low-water crossings and roadside ditches around Junction. SDG 11.5 disaster resilience. Proof: homeowner/resident-permission record + document-only photo log + resident-interview note + GPS + ranked follow-on note Method (FEMA floodplain + green-infrastructure siting screen, applied here to Hill Country flash-flood-alley low-water crossings and roadside ditches around Junction. SDG 11.5 disaster resilience.): 1. 1. Walk the resident's own dry yard with the resident and photograph any low spots, ponding stains, or erosion channels from a normal standing position. 2. 2. Note where downspouts discharge and whether water pools near the foundation. 3. 3. Ask the resident when and how badly the yard has ponded during past storms and record their answer. 4. 4. Record a ranked follow-on note naming the yard for a licensed grading contractor's regrade visit. Done when: homeowner/resident-permission record + document-only photo log + resident-interview note + GPS + ranked follow-on note

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: FEMA floodplain + green-infrastructure siting screen

Bring

• GPS phone
• tape/ruler for deposition depth
• metals field kit (if sediment screen in scope)
• boots + gloves
• camera

Steps

1. 1. Confirm post-event conditions are safe; navigate to the site; record GPS.
2. 2. Photograph deposited sediment / affected area.
3. 3. Measure deposition depth at representative points.
4. 4. If a sediment contaminant screen is in scope, run the metals field kit and record values.
5. 5. Note debris, hazards, and the extent (sketch).
6. 6. Enter depth, any analytes, hazard notes, GPS, photos into the proof record; sign.

If it does not match the plan

• Unstable ground / submerged debris / contaminated water -> document from safe footing; do not enter.
• Elevated metals in deposited sediment -> flag before any reuse; recommend lab confirm.

What counts as done

• Deposition depth recorded at representative points
• Metals screen recorded (if in scope)
• Debris/hazard note + extent sketch
• GPS waypoint + timestamped photos

Proof is measured against these, not judged by taste.
