Safety, read before you claim
Observation only on this rung, stay on the boardwalk at all times. American alligators and venomous cottonmouth snakes are present in the marsh surrounding the ridge, boardwalk, and roadside; stay on the maintained surface at all times, never approach, crowd, corner, feed, or bait any wildlife under any circumstance, at any skill level. This work never enters the marsh, never wades, and never works from a boat; stay on the maintained boardwalk, ridge trail tread, or road shoulder at all times and never step down off it into the marsh below. The marsh has soft mud, hidden channels, and no firm footing; a person who steps off the maintained surface can be stuck and unfindable. If the real problem needs marsh-interior work, it stops at this boardwalk-top, ridge-top, or shoulder-top documentation or install rung, and the licensed refuge or park habitat crew is the named follow on. Work in early morning hours before summer heat peaks, carry more water than you think you need, and Gulf Coast Texas summer heat, humidity, mosquitoes, fire ants, and venomous cottonmouth snakes are all real here. This survey recurs seasonally.
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. From the Gambusia Nature Trail boardwalk or the Dune Boardwalk, photograph a stretch of the chenier ridge or dune edge where it drops abruptly to the surrounding marsh, without leaving the boardwalk.
- 2. Note any visible undercutting, slumping, or bare exposed edge along that ridge to marsh transition.
- 3. Photograph the boardwalk surface itself for reference, and watch for alligators or other wildlife without approaching. American alligators and venomous cottonmouth snakes are present in the marsh surrounding the ridge, boardwalk, and roadside; stay on the maintained surface at all times, never approach, crowd, corner, feed, or bait any wildlife under any circumstance, at any skill level.
- 4. Record a ranked follow on note naming the stretch for the park's erosion control crew.
What counts as done
- Photo of the ridge or dune edge erosion taken from the boardwalk itself
- Note of the approximate extent of undercutting or slumping observed
- Confirmation the boardwalk was never left and the marsh was never entered
- Confirmation no alligator or other wildlife was approached, fed, or baited
- Ranked follow on note naming the stretch for the park's erosion control crew
- GPS waypoint of the surveyed boardwalk segment
Proof is measured against these, not judged by taste.
The standard this serves
Coastal Habitat. Coastal habitat is the green fringe where land meets sea: eelgrass meadows, kelp beds, salt marsh. Acre for acre these are among the most life-giving places on Earth, nursery to the fish and buffer to the storm, and NOAA's assessment methods exist because they are quietly shrinking. Mastery looks like a person who can survey a stretch of shore and say, with evidence, whether the meadow is spreading or retreating. This packet is one piece of that watching: one site, one careful observation, one record added to the long ledger of the coast.
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, made by the payer straight to the worker, with no Vealth fee. Paying Vealth is closed: Vealth takes no new card or wallet payment for a job. To fund a job, offer to pay the worker directly, then pay them yourself when you accept the proof, from your own wallet or by your own card or bank. From a wallet: prepare_token_offer, sign, submit_token_offer; after the proof is accepted you pay the worker on chain and the worker records it (prepare_token_settlement, or POST /labor/settle for USDC on Base). By card or bank: prepare_direct_offer, sign, submit_direct_offer; you pay the worker yourself and the worker records it with prepare_direct_settlement. Both are free, need no gas, and move no money through Vealth.
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
