Retrofit an unshielded outdoor light fixture to full cutoff, turtle safe amber, fixture 2, Port Isabel City Hall, 305 E. Maxan St., Port Isabel, TX 78578 (public city facility).

This public building or park runs an unshielded, upward or outward spilling outdoor light fixture that wastes energy and can disorient Kemp's ridley hatchlings crawling toward the Gulf near this Laguna Madre coast, where a full cutoff, amber, downward aimed fixture solves both problems at once.

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 photos plus night photo of light direction plus fixture model record plus GPS

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. 1. Confirm the fixture location with the building or park's public agency staff and photograph the existing unshielded or upward facing light fixture before starting.
2. 2. Power down the fixture at the switch or breaker before handling it, hand tools only.
3. 3. Install a full cutoff, turtle friendly amber, dark sky compliant fixture shield or replacement fixture aimed downward.
4. 4. Restore power and photograph the retrofitted fixture at night showing light directed only downward, recording the fixture model.

What counts as done

• Before photo of the unshielded or upward facing fixture
• Fixture powered down before handling confirmed
• Full cutoff, turtle safe amber, dark sky compliant fixture model recorded
• After night photo showing light directed only downward

Proof is measured against these, not judged by taste.

The standard this serves

Energy Efficiency Audit. Energy efficiency work begins with the walkthrough audit, the kind the ASHRAE standard describes: a trained eye moving through a building, reading the bills, the walls, the lights, and the equipment, and coming out with the short list of fixes worth doing first. Mastery looks like an auditor who can feel where a building is bleeding money within the hour, and prove it on paper. That instinct is trained by repetition on real buildings. This packet is one repetition: one system observed, one reading taken, one finding recorded the way the standard asks.
