Build a curb-cut rain garden to reduce storm flow reaching the canal.

Streets in Israel-Bitumul send storm flow straight toward the canal with nothing to slow it down first. A curb-cut rain garden catches and soaks in that flow before it reaches the water.

Pay

$500 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

Photos show a functioning curb cut directing flow into a planted, draining basin

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.

Steps

1. Mark the curb-cut location where street flow already pools
2. Cut the curb opening to direct flow into the planned basin
3. Dig and grade the basin to hold and infiltrate the diverted flow
4. Plant native, water-tolerant species in the basin
5. Test the curb cut and basin with a hose to confirm flow and infiltration

What counts as done

• dated before-work photo
• dated after-work photo
• GPS location tag
• written log of date and conditions found

Proof is measured against these, not judged by taste.

The standard this serves

Green Stormwater Infrastructure. Green stormwater infrastructure is the city's way of handling rain the way a meadow does: rain gardens, planted swales, and permeable pavement that let a storm soak in instead of surging down a pipe. The EPA's inspection standard keeps these systems honest, because a neglected rain garden quietly stops working while still looking like a garden. Mastery is the inspector's eye: reading inlets, overflow, plants, and soil in a single practiced pass. This packet is one such inspection, one basin checked and one record filed, which is precisely how a thousand basins stay alive.
