Repair a cracked concrete canal-liner section, site 2 -- an alfalfa & Sudan-grass farm on an IID lateral canal south of Calipatria, CA 92233.

The survey flagged site 2 along this IID lateral with the concrete lining cracked and seeping, losing real Colorado River-allocated irrigation water into the surrounding soil before it ever reaches the farm's fields; patching and resealing the liner section restores the canal's conveyance efficiency.

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

permit/district coordination confirm + before/after photos + liner-material spec + leak re-test + 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.

Bring

• GPS phone
• pH meter or strips
• conductivity meter
• ammonia + iron test kit as specified
• surfactant screen if specified
• gloves
• camera

Steps

1. 1. Navigate to the outfall/reach; record GPS; photograph it, capturing any visible flow or staining.
2. 2. Note whether flow is present in dry weather (yes/no).
3. 3. Measure and record pH, conductivity, and each specified analyte per kit instructions.
4. 4. Log any color, odor, floc, or aquatic-life observation.
5. 5. Enter all readings with units, GPS, time, and photos into the proof record; sign.

What counts as done

• Before photo of the cracked, seeping liner section
• Irrigation-district coordination record (flow scheduled off or reduced for the repair window)
• Liner-repair material spec sheet (concrete patch or geomembrane, per USDA-NRCS CPS 428)
• After photo of the resealed liner + a post-repair seepage/leak re-check

Proof is measured against these, not judged by taste.

The standard this serves

Watershed Health. A watershed is everything the land pours into a stream, and the stream keeps the record. The EPA's bioassessment method reads that record through the small creatures living in the gravel: mayflies and caddisflies mean clean water, only worms and midges mean trouble. Mastery looks like a person who can wade one riffle with a net and tell you how the whole valley is doing. That skill is built sample by sample. This packet is one of them: one site, one careful count, one entry in the long record of a stream.
