Environmental Protection Agency federal obligations in Florida

The Environmental Protection Agency shows $3,017,335,789.32 in USAspending.gov obligations coded to Florida, across 285 awards. Awarding-agency 068 and Florida (FL) are the pair. Two hundred eighty-five awards against $3,017,335,789.32 is a thin, high-mean EPA pattern. One restatement can move the mean quickly. The implied mean is about $10.59 million per award — a quotient of two packet facts, not a typical project. USAspending.gov is the source. Amounts are obligations, not outlays.

Key figures

  • EPA in Florida: $3,017,335,789.32 across 285 USAspending awards.
  • Implied mean about $10.59 million per record — a packet quotient, not a typical project.
  • Agency 068 × FL is not a measure of Superfund sites, unique permits, or pounds of emissions.
  • Cite obligations from USAspending.gov, not outlays.

A thin EPA file on Florida

Environmental Protection Agency as awarding agency, Florida as place-of-performance: 285 records summing to $3,017,335,789.32. An Environmental Protection Agency award coded outside FL is out. An award in Florida from a different awarding agency is out even if the topic sounds related. Florida (FL) excludes Georgia and Alabama. A Mobile-coded award is Alabama even if a watershed crosses.

Two hundred eighty-five awards against $3,017,335,789.32 is a thin, high-mean EPA pattern. One restatement can move the mean quickly. Unique recipients are unpublished. Do not read 285 as 285 unique Superfund sites, unique permits, or pounds of emissions. The overlay Environmental Protection Agency in Florida is the both-keys table. Florida federal spending is the all-agency state hub. Environmental Protection Agency is the agency book without an FL filter. All spending ties lists other joins.

Everglades and Tampa Bay folklore is unpublished. This packet does not name Clean Water or Superfund line items inside $3,017,335,789.32. Correlation is not causation: Florida did not “cause” $3,017,335,789.32 by existing as a large or small place. Population and outcome scores are not packet facts. The join is 068 × FL only.

Not Superfund sites or a permit roster

$3,017,335,789.32 does not measure Superfund sites, unique permits, or pounds of emissions. Those series are not USAspending fields on this aggregate. The cell sums award obligations with awarding-agency code 068 and an FL place-of-performance tag.

Do not treat 285 awards as a census of Superfund sites, unique permits, or pounds of emissions. Parent hubs are supposed to be larger than this pair. If Florida federal spending or Environmental Protection Agency matched $3,017,335,789.32 and 285, the join would be pointless. Use the overlay when both keys must stay on. Georgia and Alabama EPA joins are other pairs, not addends.

Florida, not a Gulf-and-Atlantic rollup

Place of performance FL is a geography tag on the award, not a metro list and not a commuting zone. Florida (FL) excludes Georgia and Alabama. A Mobile-coded award is Alabama even if a watershed crosses. Recipient address can differ from that state tag.

Everglades and Tampa Bay folklore is unpublished. This packet does not name Clean Water or Superfund line items inside $3,017,335,789.32. This packet does not split $3,017,335,789.32 by city, county, or named facility. 285 awards stay statewide. A county table would be a different extract.

Few rows, large vehicles, still obligations

Even a thick or thin file records obligations, not necessarily outlays. $3,017,335,789.32 can include amounts that pay on a later schedule. Citing it as cash already sent in Florida confuses two concepts. Deobligations and upward adjustments both move the total.

Florida’s own budget is a different ledger. Mixing it with the 285-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 $3,017,335,789.32.

Citing EPA in Florida

Cite USAspending.gov: Environmental Protection Agency (agency 068) obligated $3,017,335,789.32 on 285 awards coded to Florida. Name both sides. Keep “obligations.” Do not relabel the total as Superfund sites, unique permits, or pounds of emissions.

Prefer Environmental Protection Agency in Florida if the overlay has refreshed after an ingest. Florida federal spending still includes every other awarding agency tagged to FL. Environmental Protection Agency is the 068 parent without the FL filter. All spending ties indexes other pairs. Do not add those parents into $3,017,335,789.32.

A usable footnote names Environmental Protection Agency, Florida, $3,017,335,789.32, and 285. The compact headline $3.02 billion is that same dollar total rounded. It is not a second extract. The implied mean near $10.59 million is $3,017,335,789.32 divided by 285. Means are not medians. USAspending.gov remains the originating system.
