Fit debris filter inserts.

Every Lakeport street drain feeds Clear Lake, and every load of leaves, grass clippings, and street grit it carries feeds the nutrient cycle behind the lake's toxic algal blooms. Filter inserts fitted in the highest-flow inlets catch that load at the curb, where emptying it is a five-minute job instead of a lake-wide one.

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.

Proof

Before/after photos of each fitted inlet

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. Take the city-approved inlet list and photograph each drain inlet as found.
2. Lift the grate with a partner using proper lifting form and set the sized filter insert per its instructions.
3. Re-seat the grate flush and confirm it sits stable.
4. Log each fitted inlet's cross-street and insert size.
5. Photograph each finished inlet and schedule the first emptying check.

What counts as done

• Before photos of inlets with GPS and date
• After photos showing seated inserts and flush grates
• Inlet list with sizes fitted

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.
