Clear and check a storm-drain inlet, inlet 2 -- the 4100-4400 block of S Figueroa St (public right-of-way), Los Angeles, CA 90037.

Clear the storm-drain inlet grate from the curb at the 4100-4400 block of S Figueroa St in Los Angeles. Leaves and litter clog the inlets along this corridor, so runoff ponds at the corners and carries the street's trash downstream. This is real, repeating stormwater work. A clogged inlet leaves runoff ponding at the curb and carries the street's trash downstream. For the payer: - Price: $220 per storm inlet cleared. - Likely payer: LA Sanitation and Environment, through MyLA311 requests. - No license is needed: clearing leaves, litter and sediment from a grate surface and gutter, from the curb is maintenance, not construction work, so no contractor license applies.

Offer to pay $220. The receipt lands onchain once the proof is approved.

This job is not funded yet, so this figure is a proposed price, not money held for the worker. 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 photo pairs per inlet + water-flow video + disposal photo + GPS

This is exactly what gets it approved. Nothing settles without it.

The creator wallet. Its signature is what approves proof and settles the wage.

Start after the crew's safety orientation. The employer provides drinking water, shade and cool-down rests, and N95 masks when wildfire smoke puts the AQI at 151 or more. No licence or supervision is asked. Surface curb work only, cones up, stay out of the traffic lane; never enter or reach into the drain, lift a seized grate or touch a suspected illicit discharge (photograph, report it); report structural damage to the city; wear waterproof puncture-resistant boots, cut-resistant gloves and a hi-vis vest near traffic.

The full safety list for this job:

• Work from the curb in hi-vis and gloves with a spotter facing traffic and cones out of every lane; never lift, reach into or reset a grate, and stop in rain or running water. Never touch needles by hand: use tongs and a sharps container.
• Never reach into the basin below the grate, and never step into the traffic lane. Unknown containers are never touched by hand. A broken or missing grate is coned, photographed from a distance and reported to the owner agency, not fixed. Gas (methane, hydrogen sulfide, sewer gas) can rise through an inlet: step back at any smell, report it, no smoking or sparks. A storm drain or inlet is a confined space: Title 8 Article 37 (sections 1950 to 1962), the confined space rules for construction work, names storm drains and covers this repair and maintenance work, so nobody enters. Section 5157 is the general industry rule for the owner's own maintenance staff. A cast iron grate can weigh 50 to 150 pounds, so the crew never lifts one; a displaced grate is an open hole the city fixes. Gutter water carries oil, bacteria and sharps: wash before eating, cover cuts, keep tetanus shots current. Bag debris and put it where the owner agency says; never push it into the inlet, never hose the gutter, never leave bags on the sidewalk.
• Orientation to the plan before the first inlet: who to call, what to stop for (Title 8 section 3203).
• Hours of curb work in sun and heat off asphalt: water, shade, rest breaks, watch each other (Title 8 section 3395).
• Check the air quality index; at 151 or more the crew is told and offered respirators (Title 8 section 5141.1).
• Hi-vis and a spotter facing traffic do not control traffic; where cones cannot, a trained flagger or the City's traffic control plan is needed (Title 8 section 1599).
• Needles and glass sit in gutters and grates: tongs and a sharps container, never bare hands (Title 8 section 5193).
• Eye protection against flicked grit and cut-resistant gloves; plain work gloves do not stop glass (Title 8 section 3382).
• Gear, Title 8 sections 3385 and 3384: waterproof puncture-resistant boots for needles, glass and slick wet footing at the curb; cut-resistant gloves for glass, sharps and contaminated runoff.

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, made by the payer straight to the worker, with no Vealth fee. Paying Vealth is closed: Vealth takes no new card or wallet payment for a job. To fund a job, offer to pay the worker directly, then pay them yourself when you accept the proof, from your own wallet or by your own card or bank. From a wallet: prepare_token_offer, sign, submit_token_offer; after the proof is accepted you pay the worker on chain and the worker records it (prepare_token_settlement, or POST /labor/settle for USDC on Base). By card or bank: prepare_direct_offer, sign, submit_direct_offer; you pay the worker yourself and the worker records it with prepare_direct_settlement. Both are free, need no gas, and move no money through Vealth.

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.
