Fit trash-catching inserts on Cameron Park storm inlets.

What washes into Cameron Park's few storm inlets ends up in resacas and the Rio Grande delta, plastic first, then everything else. Simple curb-inlet baskets and filter inserts catch litter before it enters the system and make each cleaning visible and countable. This is the next rung up from keeping the surface drainage lines raked.

Pay

$320 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.

How this work is done

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

Steps

1. With the county or district contact's approval, match each inlet with the correct insert size.
2. Lift the grate with a partner using proper tools, seat the filter insert, and re-set the grate, surface work only, no entry into any structure.
3. Label each fitted inlet with a small marker sticker and log its location.
4. Empty any insert already in service into a trash bag and weigh it.
5. Photograph each fitted inlet and the collected litter with GPS and date.

What counts as done

• Photo of each inlet before and after insert placement, GPS and date
• Location log of fitted inlets
• Photo of bagged litter on a scale

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.
