Environmental Protection Agency obligations in California 22nd District (CA-22)

EPA × CA-22 is a high-share join, not a Valley Superfund roster

This page is a join: Environmental Protection Agency (agency 068) as awarding agency, and California 22nd District (CA-22) as congressional district place of performance. SpendingVault sums tagged obligations to $1,562,682,257.53 on 76 awards. The join is awarding-agency 068 crossed with a CA-22 location field, not California’s entire environmental budget and not a named-site Superfund or SRF roster. Treat the pair as a catalog intersection, not a ranking of which district received more, and not a claim that 76 awards equal 76 Superfund sites or 76 unique contractors.

Interior water, USDA conservation, or EPA-coded awards in CA-21 sit outside this total unless they also carry agency 068 and CA-22. Mixing those books into $1,562,682,257.53 would invent a combined figure the packet never computed. Correlation between this obligation sum and air-quality scores is not causation. AQI tables and NPL site lists are not in the packet. Place of performance as CA-22 locates the tagged awards; it does not deposit $1,562,682,257.53 in a district treasury. Valley-versus-foothill folklore is not a geography split in this packet.

76 awards behind $1.56 billion

Mean obligation is about $20,561,608.65 if $1,562,682,257.53 were divided evenly across 76 lines. That ratio is not a published site-cleanup cost and not a typical SRF grant. Award count is a row count, including possible continuations and modifications. It is not a count of Superfund sites, permits, or unique vendors. Seventy-six awards against a $1.56 billion cell is a thin, high-mean EPA file, and the cell is a large share of this district’s all-agency parent.

Large assistance vehicles can dominate a 76-row file without naming a site. This page will not invent contractor or recipient names. Open California 22nd District for the stored district table. Do not convert 76 into a map of California 22nd District cleanup sites. The $1,562,682,257.53 total remains an obligation rollup on tagged awards. Inspect named lines on the overlay rather than inferring a Superfund census.

California 22nd District, not a San Joaquin cleanup rollup

California 22nd District (CA-22) is one geography tag on USAspending awards, not a commuting zone and not a metro list. Awards tagged to CA-21, CA-13, or another California district are out even if the valley name sounds related. Recipient address can differ from that district tag. The district parent in this extract is $3,267,365,148.80 across every awarding agency; $1,562,682,257.53 is the Environmental Protection Agency slice — about 47.8% of that parent by arithmetic. Subtracting is tempting; this page still does not publish the leftover agency list.

A statewide EPA figure on California federal spending mixes every district and is much larger than this cell. Do not rank CA-22 against neighboring districts as a winner or loser. Other California district cells are other joins. California federal spending is the statewide book without a district filter. Adding statewide Environmental Protection Agency dollars to $1,562,682,257.53 would double count. Campaign-finance filings are a different public-record system; this join does not claim donations funded these obligations.

Agency 068 obligations are not water-project invoices already paid

EPA awards often obligate as assistance and response contracts and draw as work or grants proceed. The $1,562,682,257.53 headline is the obligation sum, not a punch-list of tons already removed and not a Treasury outlay total. A NPL or SRF dashboard dated to a particular year is not automatically this join unless it uses agency 068, CA-22 geography, and the obligation metric.

Environmental Protection Agency is the nationwide agency book without a CA-22 filter. This extract does not split Superfund from SRF, and it does not split air from water. Those cuts would require award documentation beyond dollars, 76 awards, agency 068, and California 22nd District. This page will not invent a share. Unique recipients remain unpublished.

What the CA-22 EPA table omits

The extract has no site names, permit IDs, or contractor names. Facts remain $1,562,682,257.53, 76 awards, agency 068, Environmental Protection Agency, California 22nd District (CA-22), and district parent $3,267,365,148.80. Named sites belong on another extract if they appear at all. Keep the obligation label. Later ingests can revise both the dollars and the 76-award count; prefer the live table when the overlay and this snapshot diverge.

Where the EPA × CA-22 pair lives

Start with California 22nd District for the district rollup that contains this Environmental Protection Agency cell. Environmental Protection Agency is the nationwide agency listing. California federal spending gives California context without a CA-22 filter. All spending ties indexes other two-key joins on the same obligation metric. Seventy-six awards totaling this cell remain a thin administrative file, not a site roster. Keep both Environmental Protection Agency and California 22nd District (CA-22) in every citation sentence. Do not recast $1,562,682,257.53 as cash already paid or as California’s entire environmental appropriation. USAspending.gov remains the source; SpendingVault republishes the join.

Questions

How much EPA spending is obligated in California 22nd District?

USAspending.gov shows $1,562,682,257.53 in Environmental Protection Agency (agency 068) obligations with California 22nd District (CA-22) as place of performance, across 76 awards. The sum is a commitment total, not outlays and not the district’s full $3,267,365,148.80 parent. Other agencies sit outside this join unless they also carry 068.

Do 76 awards mean 76 Superfund sites in CA-22?

No. Award count is a row count of Environmental Protection Agency actions tagged to CA-22. It is not a site or vendor census. Mean obligation of about $20,561,608.65 is a quotient of $1,562,682,257.53 and 76, not a typical cleanup cost.

Does this EPA cell include Interior water projects in CA-22?

No. This page is awarding agency 068 only. Interior lines are other joins. $1,562,682,257.53 is about 47.8% of the California 22nd District parent $3,267,365,148.80 by arithmetic — a large slice of a relatively small district book.

Is the CA-22 EPA total already paid as cleanup?

Not on this metric. Obligations are recorded commitments on awards. Outlays are payments from the Treasury. The $1,562,682,257.53 headline is the obligation rollup in SpendingVault’s extract. Invoice draws and remaining balances are not published here.
