Clear and check the storm-drain inlets on the 3800 block of N Watkins St, Frayser.

The curb inlets on this block clog with leaves and litter after every storm, so runoff ponds at the corner and carries the street's trash toward the Wolf River watershed downstream.

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

Before/after photo pairs of each inlet; Water-flow photo/video into the cleared inlet; Debris disposal photo + any 311 report reference

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.

Bring

• heavy work gloves + hi-vis vest + grabber tool and rake
• contractor bags for debris (landscape debris separated from trash)
• camera + measuring tape
• cones for the curb work zone (stay out of the traffic lane)

Steps

1. 1. ASSESS: photograph the inlet as found (grate, apron, gutter approach), note blockage type and any damage (broken grate, displaced apron concrete), and record GPS.
2. 2. Set cones at the curb work zone; all work is from the sidewalk/curb, never step into the traffic lane and never enter, reach into, or open the drain structure.
3. 3. Clear debris, sediment, and litter from the grate surface and the gutter approach with the rake/grabber; bag and dispose of it properly (green waste separated).
4. 4. Minor repair within surface scope: re-seat a displaced grate that lifts freely by hand from above, patch apron spalls with cold-patch where the city standard allows; anything more is documented, not attempted.
5. 5. VERIFY: photograph the cleared inlet from the same vantage, pour a bucket of clean water at the gutter approach to show flow into the inlet, and report any structural damage to the municipal stormwater line (311/MS4 contact) with photos.

What counts as done

• Before/after photo pairs of each inlet
• Water-flow photo/video into the cleared inlet
• Debris disposal photo + any 311 report reference

Proof is measured against these, not judged by taste.
