intermediate work · public reach of the Pecos River east of the town of Pecos, Reeves County, TX
Plant a native riparian buffer strip on a public Pecos River bank, site 2, public reach of the Pecos River east of the town of Pecos, Reeves County, TX.
Fund it for $165. Proof lands onchain when it's done.
$165 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.
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.
What the work involvesThis public Pecos River bank carries bare, eroding soil after saltcedar clearing, with no native buffer planting yet to slow desert-flash-flood runoff or filter sediment.
How this work is done
A documented method, so this packet comes out the same whoever does it.
Bring
- shovel / dibble bar
- native bare-root or plug plantings (locally sourced)
- erosion-control matting or willow stakes (bank-stabilization sites)
- loppers / hand saw (invasive removal)
- gloves + trash bags (litter pass)
- camera
- GPS-enabled phone
Steps
- 1. Walk the reach with the site plan (or the standing bioassessment/watershed-health finding, if one exists) and photograph the bank/buffer segment as found: bare soil, invasive cover, litter, erosion.
- 2. Clear invasive growth and litter from the planting zone by hand, bagging trash separately from green waste; leave native volunteers in place.
- 3. Plant native riparian species (or set willow stakes / erosion-control matting) at the spacing and depth the site plan calls for, working from the top of bank downward; water each planting in.
- 4. Stake or anchor any erosion-control matting so it will not lift in the next high-flow event, and mulch around new plantings kept clear of stems.
- 5. Photograph the finished segment from the matching vantage, record species/count or matting area installed, and note any follow-up watering the planting needs.
What counts as done
- Before photo of the bare, eroding bank
- Native riparian buffer species (cottonwood, willow, or desert-riparian grass/forb mix) and count recorded
- After photo of the finished, mulched planting
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_1788214766886_mwwjlyf","funderWallet":"0xYOU"}.
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.
