EPA awards tagged to Michigan

This page is a join of two USAspending.gov fields: awarding agency Environmental Protection Agency (code 068) and place-of-performance Michigan. The extract sums to $1,742,251,637.27 on 539 awards. Those facts describe a coding intersection. They do not show that Environmental Protection Agency spending caused Michigan outcomes, or that Michigan caused the federal award book.

The pair is not a Michigan environmental-quality score or a ranking of Great Lakes cleanup. Correlation of an agency label with a state code is not causation. Place-of-performance can follow a state environmental agency, a cleanup contractor, or a regional office. Work tagged to Michigan can involve parties elsewhere, and Michigan work can be coded to another state.

Great Lakes water-quality assessments, EPA ECHO dashboards, and Superfund NPL lists are other products. Mixing any of those series with $1,742,251,637.27 leaves the USAspending award file. The 539 figure counts award records, including modifications present in the extract, not unique people, firms, or facilities.

Five hundred thirty-nine awards under $1.74 billion

Five hundred thirty-nine awards under a $1.74 billion book is a midsize tape. Dividing $1,742,251,637.27 by 539 awards yields an implied mean near $3,232,378. That quotient is a ratio of two packet facts, not a typical award size and not a median. A few large vehicles can pull the average while many smaller rows sit below it.

Volume and dollars are different columns. Cite both 539 and $1,742,251,637.27. USAspending.gov is the source. SpendingVault does not recast $3,232,378 as a product schedule or a beneficiary payment.

Later ingests can revise $1,742,251,637.27 and 539. This prose is a packet snapshot. The overlay is the live table. If those two disagree, use the overlay. Keep the obligation label so the cell is not read as cash already paid in Michigan.
