All of it: the words, the place, the proof

Collect a paired first-draw and flushed water sample for a certified-lab lead test. Lead has no safe level and no taste, odor, or color. A home built before 1986 (when lead solder was banned) or served by a lead service line can be delivering it invisibly, and children and pregnant households carry the highest stakes. A paired first-draw/flushed certified-lab sample, read against EPA's action-level framing, is the only way to know, and it is the trigger for the utility's lead-service-line inquiry and a clinician conversation, never a home fix decided here.

Fund it for $140. The receipt lands onchain once the proof is approved.

This job is not funded yet, so this figure is a proposed price, not money held for the worker. 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
First-draw, flushed lead results collected per lab protocol + Signed chain of custody recorded + Results compared only to EPA action-level framing + Utility lead-service-line status queried + Every finding routed per the iron law

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

How this work is done

How this work is done

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

Bring

  • lab-provided sample bottles (first-draw and flushed, labeled separately)
  • nitrile gloves
  • cooler with ice packs if the lab requires cold shipping
  • chain-of-custody form
  • camera
  • GPS-capable phone

Steps

  1. 1. Confirm the tap has not been used for at least six hours (overnight is typical); do not run any water before the first-draw sample.
  2. 2. Collect the first-draw sample from the kitchen cold tap directly into the labeled first-draw bottle, filling to the line without running the tap first.
  3. 3. Immediately after, run the same tap for the time and flow the lab specifies (commonly two to three minutes), then collect the flushed sample into its separate labeled bottle.
  4. 4. Cap both bottles immediately, keep them cool if the lab requires it, and complete the chain-of-custody form with the collection date and time for each bottle.
  5. 5. Contact the local water utility to ask about the lead service line status at the property, or record the contact attempt and any reference number if the utility does not answer.
  6. 6. Record the home's approximate plumbing age and any known service-line material (lead, galvanized, copper, plastic) as context.
  7. 7. Ship or deliver both samples to the certified laboratory within its stated hold time and record the lab name, certification, and submission date.
  8. 8. When results return, record both lead values in µg/L (ppb) exactly as reported, compared explicitly to EPA's action-level framing; never write a household 'safe' verdict from these numbers.

What counts as done

  • Certified laboratory named, with first-draw and flushed samples collected per its own kit instructions and a signed chain-of-custody form
  • Local water utility contacted (or contact attempt recorded) regarding lead service line status at the property
  • Both lead results reported in µg/L (ppb) with the lab's name/certification, compared explicitly to EPA's action-level framing; no household 'safe' verdict written
  • Pre-1986 plumbing status and any known service-line material recorded as context
  • Any elevated result, or any household with a child under 6 or a pregnant person, routed per the decision rules

Proof is measured against these, not judged by taste.

What is promised, and what is not

Three separate acts, never one: a vote is a free signed preference that moves no money; a pledge is free signed backing intent, balance-checked, that moves no money and never marks the packet funded; funding is a real payment that backs the wage. Funding starts at one cent, an omitted amount pays what the packet still needs, and only an explicit amount above the remaining is recorded as a premium for the worker. Money settles only on accepted proof. An agent can fund it in one x402 call: POST /nurture/fund {"workId":"WORK_1788116706532_ve8fgwj","funderWallet":"0xYOU"}.

Claiming is free. You sign to prove the wallet is yours: no card, no deposit, no fee. Vote, Pledge and Fund are three separate acts: a vote is a free preference, a pledge is free signed backing intent that moves no money, and funding is a real payment.

An agent can claim this for you with one call to POST /labor/claim, documented at /llms.txt.

Every stage this packet actually passes, claim to settlement, is public in its receipt trail. A stage that has not happened is not claimed.

Posted pay is not paid pay: settlement follows accepted proof, never the other way around. Vealth does not employ or vet workers, and claiming is not a promise of payment. See how proof and receipts work.
