Environmental Protection Agency federal obligations in Arizona

Arizona place of performance for Environmental Protection Agency

Awarding agency 068 and place-of-performance state AZ meet here. $777,834,087.59 is the obligation sum on awards that carry both tags. It is not Environmental Protection Agency's nationwide budget, not Arizona's entire federal inflow, and not cash already paid. Superfund, drinking-water, and air-quality folklore and desert-city and border-corridor folklore may send a reader here. Those stories are not packet NAICS and not a census of watersheds.

250 award actions sit behind that dollar figure — a mid-size award list beside a large obligation total. A mid-size row list can mix large instruments with smaller service awards. The join does not rank Arizona against other states and does not name utilities or cleanup contractors inside the extract.

Open Environmental Protection Agency in Arizona for the filtered table, Arizona federal spending for the next hub, Environmental Protection Agency for the remaining hub, and All spending ties for other pairs.

Award count 250 is a record count

Dividing $777,834,087.59 by 250 yields about $3,111,336.35 per award on average. That average hides contracts, grants, and other instruments. It is not a typical cleanup or water-infrastructure grant. A second EPA slice on another state uses the same agency code and a different dollar total. Do not treat Arizona's 068 total as a synonym for every Environmental Protection Agency bureau account.

Superfund, drinking-water, and air-quality folklore is a coding conversation, not a packet field. Agency names and recipient rows live on the overlay table, not in this narrative's extra columns.

Agency-wide EPA versus this overlay

The agency-wide Environmental Protection Agency page aggregates 068 without requiring AZ geography. The Arizona federal spending page aggregates all agencies with Arizona place of performance. Only Environmental Protection Agency in Arizona applies both filters, which is why this tie cites 250 awards and $777,834,087.59.

Place of performance in Arizona is a USAspending geography field. Awards can list AZ while later remediation work occurs in New Mexico or California. EPA awards coded to those places do not sit in this total even if a vendor's mailroom is in Phoenix. This packet does not split Phoenix from Tucson or Flagstaff.

Outlays are a different column

An obligation is a legal commitment. An outlay is a payment. $777,834,087.59 is the former. This packet has no outlay total, no fiscal-year split, and no de-obligation history. Citing the figure as money already spent in Arizona over-reads the field.

Award count 250 is a record count, not a payment count. Readers who need transaction-level detail should use the Arizona–EPA overlay. All spending ties does not hide a blended statewide total under this slug.

Do not treat desert-city and border-corridor folklore as packet NAICS

A large EPA total in Arizona does not mean the agency caused Arizona's fiscal mix, and it does not connect these obligations to campaign contributions. Correlation between desert-city and border-corridor folklore and EPA awards is expected; it is not a finding about waste or program quality.

Keep $777,834,087.59 labeled as agency 068 obligations with Arizona place of performance. FEC individual contributions are a different dataset. An agency name that appears near a donor occupation is a coincidence of labeling, not a cash pipeline into USAspending.

Keep $777,834,087.59 labeled as a join

A clean footnote names awarding agency 068 (Environmental Protection Agency), Arizona place of performance, $777,834,087.59 in obligations, and 250 awards on USAspending.gov. Keep the obligation word. Do not call $777,834,087.59 cash outlays. Mean dollars per action remain about $3,111,336.35 if you divide those two facts — a ratio, not a typical cleanup or water-infrastructure grant.

Environmental Protection Agency in Arizona, Arizona federal spending, Environmental Protection Agency, and All spending ties keep the same unit. A later ingest can restate $777,834,087.59 without changing the join definition. Rewrite only the sentence whose source moved. Phoenix-versus-Tucson folklore is not a metro split in this packet. Utilities or cleanup contractors names belong on the overlay if they appear as recipients; they are not extra packet dollars. Keep the obligation label in every reuse. Correlation is not causation.
