Environmental Protection Agency federal obligations in Arkansas
$420,730,684.65 in Environmental Protection Agency obligations sit on Arkansas across 85 awards, according to USAspending.gov. That is a state × awarding-agency cell, not Arkansas’s full federal book and not Environmental Protection Agency nationwide. 85 awards against $420,730,684.65 is an 85-award environmental file, thin rows against a large dollar total. The implied mean near $4,949,772.76 is $420,730,684.65 divided by 85. Obligations are not outlays.
Key figures
- Environmental Protection Agency obligated $420,730,684.65 in Arkansas across 85 awards (USAspending.gov).
- The pair is awarding-agency 068 × place-of-performance AR.
- Amounts are obligations, not outlays; no fiscal year is in this packet.
- The implied mean near $4,949,772.76 is $420,730,684.65 divided by 85, not a typical award.
- The join does not name contractors and does not measure Superfund site counts, inspection tallies, or named facilities.
Agency 068 overlapping Arkansas
This page is a JOIN of two keys: Environmental Protection Agency on the agency side and Arkansas on the state side. The packet stores $420,730,684.65 and 85 awards. Records coded to another state, or to another awarding agency inside Arkansas, belong on other overlays. Arkansas (AR) excludes Missouri, Tennessee, Mississippi, Louisiana, Texas, and Oklahoma. A Little Rock-coded award with a Tennessee place-of-performance tag is a different cell.
The row count 85 can include continuations and modifications. It is not 85 unique Superfund site counts, inspection tallies, or named facilities. 85 awards against $420,730,684.65 is an 85-award environmental file, thin rows against a large dollar total. Environmental Protection Agency in Arkansas is the overlay for this pair. Arkansas federal spending remains the statewide hub. Environmental Protection Agency remains the agency parent. All spending ties lists other joins.
Eighty-five awards against about $420.7 million is a thin file. Named sites are unpublished. Do not invent them. A large or small state population is not in this packet and does not explain $420,730,684.65. Correlation is not causation. Stay on 068 × AR.
Cleanup folklore is not a packet field
$420,730,684.65 does not measure Superfund site counts, inspection tallies, or named facilities. Those series are not USAspending fields on this aggregate. The cell sums award obligations with awarding-agency code 068 and an AR place-of-performance tag.
Do not treat 85 awards as a census of Superfund site counts, inspection tallies, or named facilities. Parent hubs are supposed to be larger than this pair. If Arkansas federal spending or Environmental Protection Agency matched $420,730,684.65 and 85, the join would be pointless. Use the overlay when both keys must stay on. Neighboring-state EPA joins are other pairs, not addends.
Arkansas, not a Delta-only map
Statewide means statewide: this packet does not publish a city split. Arkansas (AR) excludes Missouri, Tennessee, Mississippi, Louisiana, Texas, and Oklahoma. A Little Rock-coded award with a Tennessee place-of-performance tag is a different cell. Recipient address can differ from the place-of-performance tag.
This packet does not split $420,730,684.65 by city, county, or named facility. 85 awards stay statewide. A county table would be a different extract. Campaign-finance filings do not fund these USAspending obligations.
Eighty-five EPA obligations
An obligation can sit on the books before cash moves. Treating $420,730,684.65 as money already spent in Arkansas relabels the series. Deobligations and upward adjustments both change the total. Outlays are a different concept.
Arkansas’s own budget is a different ledger. Mixing it with the 85 awards 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 $420,730,684.65. Sharing a geography with Environmental Protection Agency does not mean FEC donations funded these awards.
Citing EPA in Arkansas
Cite USAspending.gov: Environmental Protection Agency (agency 068) obligated $420,730,684.65 on 85 awards coded to Arkansas. Name both sides. Keep “obligations.” Do not relabel the total as Superfund site counts, inspection tallies, or named facilities.
Prefer Environmental Protection Agency in Arkansas if the overlay has refreshed after an ingest. Arkansas federal spending still includes every other awarding agency tagged to AR. Environmental Protection Agency is the 068 parent without the AR filter. All spending ties indexes other pairs. Do not add those parents into $420,730,684.65.
A usable footnote names Environmental Protection Agency, Arkansas, $420,730,684.65, and 85. The compact headline $420.7M is that same dollar total rounded. It is not a second extract. The implied mean near $4,949,772.76 is $420,730,684.65 divided by 85. Means are not medians. USAspending.gov remains the originating system.
