Environmental Protection Agency federal obligations in Maryland 3rd District (MD-03)

Maryland 3rd District × EPA is a place-of-performance join, not a site census

This page pairs awarding-agency 068, Environmental Protection Agency, with Maryland 3rd District (MD-03) place of performance. The join is awarding-agency 068 crossed with Maryland 3rd District (MD-03) place of performance, not Maryland’s statewide environment book and not a census of sites. SpendingVault sums tagged obligations: $2,075,486,770.61 on 40 awards. The extract does not list sites, facilities, or grantee names. Treat the pair as a catalog intersection, not a ranking of which district has more need, and not a claim that 40 awards equal 40 Superfund sites or 40 facilities.

NASA on agency 080 in Maryland 3rd District on this slice is a different awarding agency sharing the same district tag. Mixing those listings into $2,075,486,770.61 would invent a combined figure the packet never computed. Correlation between this obligation sum and contaminated-site counts is not causation. NPL counts are not in the packet. Place of performance as Maryland 3rd District (MD-03) locates the tagged awards; it does not deposit $2,075,486,770.61 in a district treasury. Annapolis-versus-Baltimore folklore is not a metro split in this packet. A Chesapeake cleanup story is not a packet fact and does not explain the cell.

40 EPA awards behind the MD-03 obligation sum

Mean obligation is about $51,887,169.27 if $2,075,486,770.61 were divided evenly across 40 lines. That ratio is not a published cleanup cost and not a cost per site. Award count is a row count, including possible continuations and modifications. It is not a count of sites, facilities, or permits. The 40 rows are a short high-dollar environment file.

Forty lines are a short, high-dollar agency file. Sort the Maryland 3rd District overlay by amount to see concentration. This page will not invent recipient names. Open Maryland 3rd District for the stored table. Do not convert 40 into a map of Maryland EPA sites. The $2,075,486,770.61 total remains an obligation rollup on tagged awards. Inspect named lines rather than inferring a Superfund census.

Agency 068 obligations in MD-03 are not cleanups already finished

EPA awards often obligate as grants or contracts and draw as project years proceed. The $2,075,486,770.61 headline is the obligation sum, not a punch-list of acres cleaned and not a Treasury outlay total. No fiscal year is attached. A EPA Superfund NPL file dated to a particular year is not automatically this join unless it uses agency 068, Maryland 3rd District (MD-03) geography, and the obligation metric.

The awarding-agency title is Environmental Protection Agency (code 068). This extract does not split Superfund from water grants, and it does not split enforcement from assistance. Those cuts would require award documentation beyond dollars, 40 awards, agency 068, and Maryland 3rd District (MD-03). This page will not invent a share. The same district tag appears on a NASA join in this slice; those are different awarding-agency keys.

What the MD-03 × agency 068 table omits

The extract has no sites, facilities, or grantee names. Facts remain $2,075,486,770.61, 40 awards, agency 068, and Maryland 3rd District (MD-03). This page will not invent a ranking against other districts’ agency-068 joins. MD-03’s NASA pair on this slice uses agency 080, not 068.

Maryland federal spending and Maryland 3rd District place agency 068 among other listings. Environmental Protection Agency is the national agency hub. All spending ties indexes other district × agency pairs. Mixing those shelves would invent a share of federal spending the packet never computed. The $2,075,486,770.61 figure is the tagged pair only. Campaign-finance filings are a different public-record system; this join does not claim donations funded these obligations.

Where the EPA × Maryland 3rd District overlay lives

Start with Maryland 3rd District for the 40-award table behind $2,075,486,770.61. Environmental Protection Agency is the nationwide Environmental Protection Agency hub. Maryland federal spending gives Maryland context. All spending ties is the shelf for other district-by-agency joins on the same obligation metric. Forty awards totaling $2,075,486,770.61 remain a short high-dollar awarding-agency file, not a site census. Site names and grantee UEIs are not in this packet. The $2,075,486,770.61 total is the tagged pair only. USAspending.gov remains the source; SpendingVault republishes the join. If a later extract revises the rollup, this page’s facts will be stale until the packet is rebuilt. Do not annualize $2,075,486,770.61: no fiscal year is in the facts.

How to read the MD-03 × EPA pair

A ties page exists because two tables meet. One table is awarding agency 068 (Environmental Protection Agency). The other is congressional-district place of performance as Maryland 3rd District (MD-03). The headline $2,075,486,770.61 is the obligation sum on that intersection, about 6.6 percent of the district’s $31,356,776,634.33 all-agency obligation book. It is not a forecast, not a budget request, and not an outlay. It is also not a claim that Environmental Protection Agency caused Maryland 3rd District (MD-03)’s economy to grow. Correlation between geography and an awarding-agency code is the join — nothing more. Use the internal links to step off this pair. If you need award-level names, open the overlay rather than treating this narrative as a recipient directory.
