Fifteen awards is a thicker public-assistance file than Illinois's five-award overlay, still a short list. The join does not name recipients. Packet facts are $1,541,050,754.01, 15 awards, SC, and 97.036. Correlation is not causation. FEC donations do not fund this USAspending cell. Keep Disaster Grants - Public Assistance and South Carolina together when reading $1,541,050,754.01.

Public assistance, not a flood-insurance twin

South Carolina's 15-award 97.036 file is the thickest disaster-grant overlay in this harvest's set (Colorado 7, Illinois 5, Pennsylvania 6, Michigan 6). More rows do not make it a ranking winner. Mixing those series into $1,541,050,754.01 would invent a broader total than this cell contains. Facts available: South Carolina, CFDA 97.036, $1,541,050,754.01, 15 awards. Declaration numbers, incident names, and applicant names are unpublished.

The catalog title names Disaster Grants - Public Assistance (Presidentially Declared Disasters), not a ranking of South Carolina counties by damage. Dividing $1,541,050,754.01 by 15 yields about $102.74 million per award. Unique recipients are unpublished. 15 is not a declaration, applicant, or project census.

South Carolina geography, not a coastal-only map

SC is the place-of-performance code. Awards billed to Columbia, Charleston, or Greenville can share the tag. Awards coded to North Carolina and Georgia stay outside $1,541,050,754.01 even when activity later crosses those lines. The code does not convert $1.54 billion into a hurricane atlas.

South Carolina federal spending is the all-program parent. 97.036 is one row on South Carolina programs. $1.54 billion is not the state’s complete federal footprint. Open Disaster Grants - Public Assistance (Presidentially Declared Disasters) in South Carolina for the filtered table, CFDA 97.036 for the catalog without a South Carolina filter, and All spending ties for other pairs. Do not add those parents into $1,541,050,754.01.

Fifteen awards and a high-eight-figure mean

$1,541,050,754.01 ÷ 15 is about $102.74 million per award. That average is a high-eight-figure mean on fifteen rows, not a median. Net obligations can include downward modifications; the total shown is the aggregate in the facts. Treat 15 as a record count, not as 15 unique disasters or 15 named applicants.

Without a transaction register, you cannot see how many of the 15 rows are continuations, renewals, or corrections. Later ingests can restate $1,541,050,754.01 without changing the join key of 97.036 and SC. USAspending obligations can be positive new awards or net of downward modifications; $1,541,050,754.01 is the net total supplied in the facts. The pair remains Disaster Grants - Public Assistance plus South Carolina. Do not treat $1,541,050,754.01 as an outlay series.

What South Carolina public assistance does not prove

A large 97.036 total tagged to South Carolina does not measure whether a named South Carolina incident is closed, and it does not equal reimbursements already drawn. FEC donations do not fund this USAspending cell. Correlation is not causation. The headline remains $1,541,050,754.01 on 15 awards for Disaster Grants - Public Assistance in South Carolina.

Keep both sides of the join: Disaster Grants - Public Assistance (Presidentially Declared Disasters) and South Carolina, obligations only.

Quote USAspending.gov and the overlay path rather than a hurricane-season narrative. Cite Disaster Grants - Public Assistance together with South Carolina whenever you reuse $1,541,050,754.01.
