Install a no dumping, drains to the creek stencil at a curb inlet on the corridor, inlet 4, Business US Highway 290 / Main Street corridor, downtown Brenham, TX 77833 (public right of way)

The curb inlets along this downtown Brenham corridor drain straight to a Post Oak Savanna creek tributary with no marking telling anyone that whatever goes in the gutter goes straight downstream; a durable stenciled warning is the cheapest upstream prevention there is. Standard: EPA NPDES MS4 stormwater program, curb-inlet marking as upstream pollution prevention. SDG 6.3 and 11.5. Proof: before/after photos + stencil-legibility check + paint-product durability spec + GPS Method (EPA green-infrastructure inspection (bioretention / bioswale / permeable pavement function + maintenance), ~30-75 min): 1. Locate the GI asset; record GPS; identify the type (rain garden / bioswale / permeable pavement / tree filter). 2. Photograph the asset, its inlet, and its outlet/overflow. 3. Check the inlet and outlet for blockage (sediment, trash, mulch) and note whether flow can enter/leave freely. 4. Check for standing water and estimate whether it drains within the design window (typically <24-48h after rain); probe media if dry. 5. Assess vegetation/media condition and estimate sediment/trash accumulation depth. 6. Note erosion, bypass, or structural damage and list the maintenance needed. 7. Enter asset type, condition, inlet/outlet status, drainage observation, sediment level, maintenance needs, GPS, photos; sign. Equipment: measuring tape, GPS phone, camera, trowel / probe, data sheet, gloves Done when: Asset type + overall condition recorded; Inlet + outlet clear/blocked status recorded; Standing-water / infiltration observation recorded; Sediment/trash level + maintenance recommendations + GPS + photos

Pay

$180 proposed

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.

Proof

before/after photos + stencil-legibility check + paint-product durability spec + GPS

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

How this work is done

A documented method, so this packet comes out the same whoever does it. Typically 30–75 minutes. Method of record: EPA green-infrastructure inspection (bioretention / bioswale / permeable pavement function + maintenance)

Bring

• measuring tape
• GPS phone
• camera
• trowel / probe
• data sheet
• gloves

Steps

1. 1. Locate the GI asset; record GPS; identify the type (rain garden / bioswale / permeable pavement / tree filter).
2. 2. Photograph the asset, its inlet, and its outlet/overflow.
3. 3. Check the inlet and outlet for blockage (sediment, trash, mulch) and note whether flow can enter/leave freely.
4. 4. Check for standing water and estimate whether it drains within the design window (typically <24-48h after rain); probe media if dry.
5. 5. Assess vegetation/media condition and estimate sediment/trash accumulation depth.
6. 6. Note erosion, bypass, or structural damage and list the maintenance needed.
7. 7. Enter asset type, condition, inlet/outlet status, drainage observation, sediment level, maintenance needs, GPS, photos; sign.

If it does not match the plan

• Standing water persists > 48h after rain -> flag failed infiltration (clogged media) for rehab.
• Inlet or outlet blocked -> flag for cleaning; the asset isn't capturing runoff.
• Erosion, undercutting, or flow bypassing the asset -> flag for repair.
• Documentation only — no digging out media or altering structures.

What counts as done

• Asset type + overall condition recorded
• Inlet + outlet clear/blocked status recorded
• Standing-water / infiltration observation recorded
• Sediment/trash level + maintenance recommendations + GPS + photos

Proof is measured against these, not judged by taste.
