How this work is done

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

Steps

1. 1. Confirm the site and work plan with Brazos Bend State Park staff before starting; this is public parkland in occupied American alligator habitat.
2. 2. Photograph the worn rail, decking, or braided informal path before starting, from the same vantage used in the survey. American alligators are common and closely observed throughout Brazos Bend State Park, including along maintained trails well away from open water; stay at least 30 feet back from any alligator at all times, never approach, crowd, or corner one, and never feed or bait an alligator or any wildlife under any circumstance, at any skill level. A fed alligator loses its fear of people, becomes dangerous, and is usually destroyed by park staff, so preventing that habituation is t
3. 3. Using hand tools, repair or reinforce the platform rail or trail-edge barrier, and block any redundant informal path with natural brush or a low barrier, work confined to the platform, boardwalk, or trail structure and its immediate maintained margin at all times.
4. 4. Install or refresh a small sign reading stay back, never feed wildlife, and photograph the finished repair and signage from the matching before vantage.

What counts as done

• Confirmation the site and repair plan were coordinated with Brazos Bend State Park staff
• Before photo of the worn rail, decking, or informal path
• Confirmation work stayed on the platform, boardwalk, or trail structure and its immediate maintained margin, never at the water's edge or on the bank below
• Confirmation no alligator or other wildlife was approached, fed, or baited
• Repair material and signage installed recorded
• After photo of the finished repair and signage from the matching vantage

Proof is measured against these, not judged by taste.
