Superfund cooperative obligations at $442.4M
USAspending.gov records $442,432,411 in obligations under CFDA 66.802. Those 278 awards produce that stock. A simple average is about $1.59 million per award. That average is a quotient of two packet totals, not a typical award and not a unit cost for sites cleaned, cubic yards excavated, or NPL listings deleted. Other EPA Superfund listings under different CFDA numbers are not mixed into the $442,432,411.
The assistance-listing title is SUPERFUND STATE, POLITICAL SUBDIVISION, AND INDIAN TRIBE SITE-SPECIFIC COOPERATIVE AGREEMENTS. CFDA 66.802 is the identifier. Read the $442.4M headline — $442,432,411 in the award file — as the obligation book tagged 66.802 only. USAspending.gov assistance awards are the source. This page does not convert obligations into outlays or into a count of sites cleaned, cubic yards excavated, or NPL listings deleted.
278 awards on 85 site partners
85 recipients share 278 awards. That is about 3.3 award records per recipient on average. Splitting $442,432,411 evenly would assign about $5.21 million per recipient. That density is a packet quotient, not a typical grant size and not a cost per unit of sites cleaned, cubic yards excavated, or NPL listings deleted. The packet does not list the 85 named organizations. Read $442,432,411 only against CFDA 66.802.
Forty-six jurisdictions describe a broad Superfund-partner map. Cooperative-agreement dollars follow funded site partners, not equal shares of National Priorities List sites. Place-of-performance amounts, if shown, live on the program table. Recipient count is organizational, not a census of sites cleaned, cubic yards excavated, or NPL listings deleted. A simple average is about $1.59 million per award. Combining 66.802 with other EPA Superfund listings under different CFDA numbers would invent a combined total this packet does not contain.
Award rows are not a site census
Among assistance listings, 66.802 is a site-cooperative file: 278 awards against 85 named states, tribes, and subdivisions in 46 jurisdictions. Award count is a weak proxy for “number of projects” and a worse proxy for sites cleaned, cubic yards excavated, or NPL listings deleted. The recipient field (85 recipients) tells you how many named organizations sit on the extract; awards (278) tell you how many assistance rows were stored.
The packet does not report sites cleaned, cubic yards excavated, or NPL listings deleted. Citing 278 as that unit would be a unit error. Keep the units straight: dollars, awards, recipients, jurisdictions. The $442,432,411 stock is the obligation figure from USAspending.gov. Eighty-five recipients on 278 awards is a multi-year site-cooperative pattern.
Obligations versus Superfund outlays
The $442,432,411 is an obligation total from USAspending.gov. Outlays — cash paid against Superfund State, Political Subdivision, and Indian Tribe Site-Specific Cooperative Agreements awards — are not in the packet. A file can show a large obligation stock while draws, reimbursements, or closeouts follow a different schedule. Deobligations and upward adjustments both move the total. Treasury outlays are a separate series.

What the 66.802 tables omit
Geographic coding covers 46 jurisdictions. Forty-six jurisdictions describe a broad Superfund-partner map. Cooperative-agreement dollars follow funded site partners, not equal shares of National Priorities List sites. It is not an NPL inventory, not a responsible-party cost-recovery ledger, and not a count of every cleanup action. Series that never appear as assistance awards will not show up in the $442,432,411.
Place-of-performance on 46 jurisdictions is a coding field. Read the program page before treating those cells as equal shares of Superfund State, Political Subdivision, and Indian Tribe Site-Specific Cooperative Agreements funding. Recipient dollars, if shown on the hub, are still obligation amounts, not cash already paid.
