EPA awards tagged to California

Environmental Protection Agency as awarding agency, California as place-of-performance: 1,150 records summing to $3,294,993,906.20. An Environmental Protection Agency award coded outside CA is out. An award in California from a different awarding agency is out even if the topic sounds related. California (CA) excludes Nevada, Oregon, Arizona, and Hawaii. A Reno-coded award is Nevada.

One thousand one hundred fifty awards is a mid-count EPA file: neither a handful of cleanup vehicles nor an assistance flood. Unique recipients are unpublished. Do not read 1,150 as 1,150 unique Superfund sites, unique permits, or pounds of emissions. The overlay Environmental Protection Agency in California is the both-keys table. California federal spending is the all-agency state hub. Environmental Protection Agency is the agency book without a CA filter. All spending ties lists other joins.

This packet does not name Clean Water, Superfund, or diesel-grant line items inside $3,294,993,906.20. Correlation is not causation: California did not “cause” $3,294,993,906.20 by existing as a large or small place. Population and outcome scores are not packet facts. The join is 068 × CA only.

Not Superfund sites or a permit roster

$3,294,993,906.20 does not measure Superfund sites, unique permits, or pounds of emissions. Those series are not USAspending fields on this aggregate. The cell sums award obligations with awarding-agency code 068 and a CA place-of-performance tag.

Do not treat 1,150 awards as a census of Superfund sites, unique permits, or pounds of emissions. Parent hubs are supposed to be larger than this pair. If California federal spending or Environmental Protection Agency matched $3,294,993,906.20 and 1,150, the join would be pointless. Use the overlay when both keys must stay on. Oregon, Nevada, and Arizona EPA joins are other pairs, not addends.
