All of it: the words, the place, the proof

Walk the lake edge and shoreline at MacArthur Park Lake in Los Angeles, CA and score the condition. The shoreline and fishing-dock frontage have never had a documented rapid pass, so litter accumulation, algae bloom extent and eroding turf edges all go unrecorded until something fails.

Offer to pay $360. 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: photo per station + GPS waypoints + rapid-condition scoring + shoreline-erosion log

Safety, read before you claim

Go in pairs, only if you can tell native from invasive plants. Public path only: never step into the lake or onto an unstable bank edge; at a collapsed bank or slick algae mat, stop, photograph from a safe distance, and do not approach.

The full safety list for this job:

Hazards here: slick or undercut banks, soft mud, moving water and sun. Wear closed-toe boots with grip, bring water and go with a partner, or tell someone your plan and your return time. Stop work and back away from the edge if the bank is slick or collapsing, the flow rises or a storm is forecast. Never step into the water. Some experience of this kind of work helps; this job asks for no license or certificate.

How this work is done

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

Bring

GPS phone
quadrat frame
invasive-species ID reference
boots
insect protection
camera

Steps

1. Navigate to the wetland edge; record GPS; stay on stable ground.
2. Photograph 3 quadrat stations.
3. At each station, estimate percent cover native vs invasive; identify the dominant invasive.
4. Note hydrology / water level and any disturbance.
5. Enter cover percentages, invasive ID, hydrology, GPS, photos into the proof record; sign.

What counts as done

Photo per observation station along the public shoreline path
GPS waypoint per station
Rapid lake-condition score (water clarity, algae extent, litter load, shoreline cover)
Shoreline-erosion log naming any repair rung

Proof is measured against these, not judged by taste.

The standard this serves

Wetland Condition. Wetlands are the landscape's kidneys and nurseries at once: they filter the water, absorb the flood, and raise the young of half the creatures around them. The EPA's rapid assessment gives a trained visitor a way to grade one honestly: the plants present, the water's path, the soil, the wear at the edges. Mastery looks like walking a marsh and knowing, defensibly, how it is doing and what threatens it. This packet is one such visit, one wetland's condition recorded to the method. What is watched can be defended; unwatched wetlands quietly disappear.

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, 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.

Other acts: vote, pledge, fund
