All of it: the words, the place, the proof
Screen for PFAS at the community garden in Elysian Valley, Los Angeles, CA. It has never been checked here before, so the people who use this place can see if it's improving. Name the exact site and confirm it with its host before you claim: this listing gives only the area.
Offer to pay $392. The receipt lands onchain once the proof is approved.
Safety, read before you claim
Only someone who already knows the clean-hands/dirty-hands protocol should take this, reviewing it before arrival and following it throughout. Never wear waterproof clothing, eat fast food that day, or let PTFE near the sample, and do not rinse the bottle with sample water.
How this work is done
How this work is done
A documented method, so this packet comes out the same whoever does it.
Bring
- lab-provided HDPE (non-PTFE) bottles
- powderless nitrile gloves
- lab-provided field blank water
- cooler + ice
- GPS phone
- camera
- chain-of-custody form
Steps
- 1. Before arrival, review the clean-hands/dirty-hands protocol; avoid fast food, cosmetics, and waterproof/Teflon gear that day.
- 2. Navigate to the point; record GPS; photograph the source.
- 3. Don powderless nitrile gloves; keep all fluoropolymer (PTFE/Teflon) away from the sample.
- 4. Collect the sample into the HDPE bottle per Method 537.1; do NOT rinse with sample water.
- 5. Collect a field blank alongside using the lab-provided water.
- 6. Cool immediately; complete the chain-of-custody; ship to the accredited lab within the hold time.
- 7. Record GPS, time, photos, blank, and COC number in the proof record; sign.
What counts as done
- Photo of sampling point
- GPS waypoint
- PFAS-clean sample collected per 537.1 (no PTFE, no field contamination)
- Chain-of-custody to accredited lab
- Field blank documented
- Site record: the exact site's name and street address, and the contact who agreed to the work
Proof is measured against these, not judged by taste.
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
