Photograph and log the storm outfalls along Chisholm Creek.

Chisholm Creek collects north Wichita's street runoff, and its outfalls tell the story, staining, dry-weather flow, and sheen show up at the pipe before anyone tests the water. The neighborhood also lives beside a documented groundwater contamination plume near 29th and Grove, which makes public, no-touch watching of surface water worth doing well. A monthly outfall photo log gives the city's stormwater office real eyes.

Pay

$160 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 — recorded, and readable any time at vealth.net/labor/credit/(your wallet). You see which before you claim, never after.

Proof

How this work is done

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

Steps

1. Walk the mapped public-path outfall points along the creek on a dry day.
2. Photograph each outfall from the bank or path and note flow, color, odor, and staining.
3. Log each observation on the outfall sheet.
4. Report any dry-weather flow or sheen to the city stormwater line.
5. GPS-tag and date every photo and entry.

What counts as done

• Photo of each outfall point
• Completed observation sheet
• Report confirmation for any flagged outfall
• GPS coordinates and date

Proof is measured against these, not judged by taste.

The standard this serves

Watershed Health. A watershed is everything the land pours into a stream, and the stream keeps the record. The EPA's bioassessment method reads that record through the small creatures living in the gravel: mayflies and caddisflies mean clean water, only worms and midges mean trouble. Mastery looks like a person who can wade one riffle with a net and tell you how the whole valley is doing. That skill is built sample by sample. This packet is one of them: one site, one careful count, one entry in the long record of a stream.
