Consumer Product Safety Commission federal obligations in Maryland

CPSC awards tagged to Maryland

Consumer Product Safety Commission as awarding agency, Maryland as place-of-performance: 338 records summing to $98,658,472.10. A Consumer Product Safety Commission award coded outside MD is out. An award in Maryland from a different awarding agency is out even if the topic sounds related. Maryland (MD) excludes Virginia, the District of Columbia, Pennsylvania, and Delaware. A District of Columbia-coded award is DC even if a lab sits in Maryland.

Three hundred thirty-eight awards against $98,658,472.10 is a mid-count product-safety file: thicker than OPM’s 87-row Maryland cell, still a record count. Unique recipients are unpublished. Do not read 338 as 338 unique product recalls, unique laboratories, or named test facilities. Consumer Product Safety Commission in Maryland is the both-keys table. Maryland federal spending is the all-agency state hub. Consumer Product Safety Commission is the agency book without an MD filter. All spending ties lists other joins.

Do not treat 338 awards as 338 unique recalls. Lab names and product SKUs are unpublished. This is agency 061 × MD only. Correlation is not causation: Maryland did not cause $98,658,472.10 by existing as a large or small place. Population and outcome scores are not packet facts. The join is 061 × MD only.

Recall counts are a different series

$98,658,472.10 does not measure product recalls, unique laboratories, or named test facilities. Those series are not USAspending fields on this aggregate. The cell sums award obligations with awarding-agency code 061 and an MD place-of-performance tag.

Maryland, not a DC-lab-only map

Place of performance MD is a geography tag on the award, not a metro list and not a commuting zone. Maryland (MD) excludes Virginia, the District of Columbia, Pennsylvania, and Delaware. A District of Columbia-coded award is DC even if a lab sits in Maryland. Recipient address can differ from that state tag.

This packet does not split $98,658,472.10 by city, county, or named facility. 338 awards stay statewide. A county table would be a different extract. Campaign-finance filings do not fund these USAspending obligations.

Three hundred thirty-eight rows still mean commitments

Even a thick or thin file records obligations, not necessarily outlays. $98,658,472.10 can include amounts that pay on a later schedule. Citing it as cash already sent in Maryland confuses two concepts. Deobligations and upward adjustments both move the total.

Maryland’s own budget is a different ledger. Mixing it with the 338-award USAspending file leaves this series. No fiscal year is published in this packet, so this page does not invent one. Keep the obligation label on $98,658,472.10.

How to cite Product Safety × Maryland

Cite USAspending.gov: Consumer Product Safety Commission (agency 061) obligated $98,658,472.10 on 338 awards coded to Maryland. Name both sides. Keep “obligations.” Do not relabel the total as product recalls, unique laboratories, or named test facilities.

Prefer Consumer Product Safety Commission in Maryland if the overlay has refreshed after an ingest. Maryland federal spending still includes every other awarding agency tagged to MD. Consumer Product Safety Commission is the 061 parent without the MD filter. All spending ties indexes other pairs. Do not add those parents into $98,658,472.10.

A usable footnote names Consumer Product Safety Commission, Maryland, $98,658,472.10, and 338. The compact headline $98.7M is that same dollar total rounded. It is not a second extract. The implied mean near $291,889 is $98,658,472.10 divided by 338. Means are not medians. USAspending.gov remains the originating system. Lab names, recall dockets, and contractor identities are unpublished on this packet.

Three hundred thirty-eight awards against $98,658,472.10 is a mid-count product-safety file: thicker than OPM’s 87-row Maryland cell, still a record count. On this join the implied mean near $291,889 should not be treated as a typical award size. Without a distribution, $98,658,472.10 can be dominated by a few rows even when 338 is large, or by those same few rows when 338 is small. This page will not pretend to know which pattern holds. It keeps repeating the two facts and the two keys: Consumer Product Safety Commission (061) and Maryland (MD). Place of performance still does not mean every dollar was disbursed locally. Obligations still do not mean outlays. Do not treat 338 awards as 338 unique recalls. Lab names and product SKUs are unpublished. This is agency 061 × MD only. Lab names, recall dockets, and contractor identities are unpublished on this packet.
