Record the monthly litter and debris transect along the river valley trail edge.

Storm flows strand plastic, tires, and sediment banks through the Tijuana River Valley's trail corridors, and cleanup agencies prioritize by documented density. A monthly photographed transect from the dry public trail, counting debris types in fixed segments without touching anything, feeds that prioritization with real numbers.

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. Walk the fixed trail transect segments on dry ground only.
2. Count and categorize visible debris per segment on the tally sheet without touching any item.
3. Photograph each segment's representative debris field.
4. Upload tallies and photos with GPS and date.

What counts as done

• Tally per fixed segment
• Photo per segment with GPS and date
• Monthly comparison note against the last transect

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.
