Gulf Coast Ecosystem Restoration Council in Louisiana

Thirteen GCERC awards tagged to Louisiana

Gulf Coast Ecosystem Restoration Council as awarding agency, Louisiana as place-of-performance: 13 records summing to $317,019,181.98. A Gulf Coast Ecosystem Restoration Council award coded outside LA is out. An award in Louisiana from a different awarding agency is out even if the topic sounds related. Louisiana (LA) excludes Texas, Mississippi, Alabama, and Florida. A Gulf restoration award tagged to those states belongs on those ties, not this cell.

Thirteen awards against $317,019,181.98 is a thin, high-mean Council file. Project-scale vehicles can mint few rows with large dollars. Unique recipients are unpublished. Do not read 13 as 13 unique acres restored, barrels spilled, or Deepwater Horizon claim counts. The overlay Gulf Coast Ecosystem Restoration Council in Louisiana is the both-keys table. Louisiana federal spending is the all-agency state hub. Gulf Coast Ecosystem Restoration Council is the agency book without an LA filter. All spending ties lists other joins.

This packet does not name RESTORE Act buckets or a parish split. $317,019,181.98 stays a statewide 471 × LA join. Correlation is not causation: Louisiana did not “cause” $317,019,181.98 by existing as a large or small place. Population and outcome scores are not packet facts. The join is 471 × LA only.

Not an oil-spill claims ledger

$317,019,181.98 does not measure acres restored, barrels spilled, or Deepwater Horizon claim counts. Those series are not USAspending fields on this aggregate. The cell sums award obligations with awarding-agency code 471 and an LA place-of-performance tag.

Do not treat 13 awards as a census of acres restored, barrels spilled, or Deepwater Horizon claim counts. Parent hubs are supposed to be larger than this pair. If Louisiana federal spending or Gulf Coast Ecosystem Restoration Council matched $317,019,181.98 and 13, the join would be pointless. Use the overlay when both keys must stay on. Texas, Mississippi, and Alabama GCERC joins if published are other pairs, not addends.
