Stencil the storm drains that feed Baton Rouge's bayous.

North Baton Rouge's storm drains run to Monte Sano Bayou and on toward the Mississippi, carrying whatever the street gives them. A painted curb marker ('Drains to Bayou, No Dumping') is a proven cheap nudge that cuts oil pours and litter at the inlet. It is also a first task that gets new hands familiar with where their water actually goes.

Pay

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. Get the marker kit and inlet list from the city or program contact.
2. Sweep each curb inlet face clean of grit: surface only, never reaching inside.
3. Stencil or glue the marker on the curb face per the kit instructions.
4. Log each marked inlet's location.
5. Photograph each finished marker with GPS and date.

What counts as done

• Photo of each finished marker, GPS and date
• Marked-inlet location log
• One wide shot of the street worked

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.
