EPA federal obligations in Iowa

Environmental Protection Agency dollars tagged to Iowa

Environmental Protection Agency appears here as the awarding-agency label on a Iowa overlay. The numeric agency key is 068. Readers who only remember the short name EPA still need both the state tag and the agency tag before quoting $326,665,070.99. River-town, farm-belt, and mississippi-bluff folklore does not substitute for those keys.

Treat 100 as a row count. Modifications can add rows without adding new vendors. That is why unique facilities or grantees are not inferred from the count. The overlay table is the place to inspect instruments; this narrative stays with the two published facts.

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

What $3,266,650.71 is and is not

If the overlay later shows many small modifications, the mean will look large relative to those rows. If it shows a handful of large actions, the mean will look closer to those actions. This file cannot choose between those readings because award type is unpublished.

Use Environmental Protection Agency in Iowa when you need rows. Use this page when you need the join explained in prose. Both should keep the unit as obligations.

What dropping either filter does to the total

Des Moines, Cedar Rapids, and Davenport are reader landmarks, not packet subtotals. The geography key is statewide Iowa. Headquarters folklore about Des Moines does not move $326,665,070.99.

Do not add Illinois, Minnesota, Missouri, or Nebraska into $326,665,070.99 by analogy. The extract is Iowa only. Correlation is not causation.

What USAspending.gov is counting here

100 actions can include modifications that change a prior obligation. That is why a record count is not a unique-project census. Use Environmental Protection Agency in Iowa for the live table.

De-obligations, if they exist in the underlying awards, are not broken out here. The packet gives one net-style obligation aggregate: $326,665,070.99.

What the join is not

Campaign-finance filings do not fund this USAspending cell. Environmental Protection Agency obligations in Iowa and FEC receipts that mention similar words are separate public records. This page does not merge them.

If a headline needs a vendor, stop and open Environmental Protection Agency in Iowa instead of extending this file. Inventing a recipient would break the packet contract.

A one-line caption that names both sides

A complete citation names Environmental Protection Agency, Iowa, $326,665,070.99, 100, obligations, and USAspending.gov. Dropping the agency or the state turns the sentence into a different page.

All spending ties is an index of joins, not a hidden total that already includes $326,665,070.99. Environmental Protection Agency in Iowa remains the place to verify the live rows. Place-of-performance Iowa is statewide; it does not split Des Moines, Cedar Rapids, and Davenport. Neighbor-coded activity in Illinois, Minnesota, Missouri, or Nebraska stays out even if mail is handled in Des Moines. Correlation is not causation. Air-quality, water, and cleanup-program folklore can be a legitimate research question on another page. Here it is labeled folklore because the packet has no NAICS, CFDA, or program column. River-town, farm-belt, and mississippi-bluff folklore is the same kind of reader path: useful for search, unused as math. Agency 068 on a different state's overlay is a sibling join, not a remainder that must add to a national EPA budget on this page. Iowa's $326,665,070.99 cell stands alone. Do not subtract it from Environmental Protection Agency and call the difference 'Iowa versus everywhere else' without a published national total in this packet — there is none. Environmental Protection Agency is the awarding-agency label stored on the Iowa overlay; the numeric key is 068. Readers who only remember the short name EPA still need both the state tag and the agency tag before quoting $326,665,070.99. The 100 figure is not a count of unique facilities or grantees and is not a count of distinct EPA programs. Modifications can add rows without adding new vendors. That is another reason the mean of about $3,266,650.71 is not a typical cleanup or water-quality award. One hundred rows can still hide mixed instruments. Original filings remain on USAspending.gov. This file copies overlayTarget /states/ia/agencies/068/ and canonicalPath /ties/environmental-protection-agency-in-iowa/ from the packet. It does not add a fiscal year, a contractor, or an FEC dollar. If the live overlay later disagrees with $326,665,070.99 or 100, trust the table and treat this prose as dated to the extract. Until then, the reusable facts are $326,665,070.99, 100 awards, agency 068, Environmental Protection Agency, Iowa (IA), and the obligation unit.
