Clear the litter from a Compton Creek bike-path reach you can touch from the path.

Compton Creek is the Los Angeles River's last major tributary, and the soft-bottom reach along the Compton Creek bike path collects bottles, bags, and wind-blown trash that ride the next storm flow to the ocean. A monthly sweep of what is reachable from the public path keeps the reach measurably cleaner without anyone entering the channel.

Pay

$200 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

Before/after reach photos plus bag tally

This is exactly what gets it approved. Nothing settles without it.

The creator wallet. Its signature is what approves proof and settles the wage.

How this work is done

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

Steps

1. Walk the assigned bike-path reach and photograph its starting condition at three points.
2. Collect all litter reachable from the path and top-of-bank with a grabber tool, bagging trash and recyclables separately.
3. Weigh or count the filled bags at the end of the reach.
4. Leave bags at the agreed collection point.
5. Photograph the same three points clean, plus the bag tally, with date and GPS.

What counts as done

• Before photos at three marked points
• After photos at the same points
• GPS-tagged photo of the bag tally with 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.
