All of it: the words, the place, the proof
Keep every planted basin, bioswale and rain garden near the Union Station and Metro headquarters build working, and log where none stands. Where a green stormwater basin sits on Vignes Street between Cesar Chavez Avenue and the US-101 overpass, and Cesar Chavez Avenue at the Gateway Plaza edge, clear the litter and sediment at its inlet and outlet surface, weed it, restore the mulch depth, replace a dead plant from its native list with the owner's permission, and photograph it before and after. A basin that will not drain or a broken curb cut is filed on MyLA311, the City of Los Angeles service request line, and Metro's 24-hour project hotline with the reference number, never dug out.
Fund it for $80. Proof lands onchain when it's done.
How this work is done
How this work is done
A documented method, so this packet comes out the same whoever does it.
Bring
- measuring tape
- GPS phone
- camera
- trowel / probe
- data sheet
- gloves
Steps
- 1. Locate the GI asset; record GPS; identify the type (rain garden / bioswale / permeable pavement / tree filter).
- 2. Photograph the asset, its inlet, and its outlet/overflow.
- 3. Check the inlet and outlet for blockage (sediment, trash, mulch) and note whether flow can enter/leave freely.
- 4. Check for standing water and estimate whether it drains within the design window (typically <24-48h after rain); probe media if dry.
- 5. Assess vegetation/media condition and estimate sediment/trash accumulation depth.
- 6. Note erosion, bypass, or structural damage and list the maintenance needed.
- 7. Enter asset type, condition, inlet/outlet status, drainage observation, sediment level, maintenance needs, GPS, photos; sign.
What counts as done
- Each planted basin, bioswale or rain garden located with a GPS point and photographed before and after, or a note that none stands on the block
- The debris and sediment cleared at the surface of its inlet and outlet, and the mulch depth restored
- Any basin that will not drain or any broken curb cut filed on the city's line with the reference number
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.
What is promised, and what is not
Three separate acts, never one: a vote is a free signed preference that moves no money; a pledge is free signed backing intent, balance-checked, that moves no money and never marks the packet funded; funding is a real payment that backs the wage. Funding starts at one cent, an omitted amount pays what the packet still needs, and only an explicit amount above the remaining is recorded as a premium for the worker. Money settles only on accepted proof. An agent can fund it in one x402 call: POST /nurture/fund {"workId":"WORK_1790726275311_okolhrv","funderWallet":"0xYOU"}.
Claiming is free. You sign to prove the wallet is yours: no card, no deposit, no fee. Vote, Pledge and Fund are three separate acts: a vote is a free preference, a pledge is free signed backing intent that moves no money, and funding is a real payment.
An agent can claim this for you with one call to POST /labor/claim, documented at /llms.txt.
Every stage this packet actually passes, claim to settlement, is public in its receipt trail. A stage that has not happened is not claimed.
Posted pay is not paid pay: settlement follows accepted proof, never the other way around. Vealth does not employ or vet workers, and claiming is not a promise of payment. See how proof and receipts work.
Other acts: vote, pledge, fund
