Keep the weekly stand-off photo record of the Tijuana River.

The Tijuana River carries cross-border sewage-contaminated flow through San Ysidro's river valley nearly year-round, a crisis that has closed South Bay beaches for years and sickened residents with odors. Agencies act on records; a disciplined weekly photo log of flow, color, foam, and odor from the public bridge and road shoulder, never approaching the water, is evidence a neighbor can build.

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.

How this work is done

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

Steps

1. Go to the public vantage on Dairy Mart Road at the same time each week.
2. Photograph the channel upstream and downstream, capturing flow level, color, and any foam or debris rafts.
3. Record odor strength, weather, and recent rain in the log.
4. Upload photos and the log with GPS and date.

What counts as done

• Upstream and downstream photos with GPS and date
• Written odor/flow/weather log entry
• Consistent weekly timestamp series

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.
