Environmental Protection Agency federal obligations in New Jersey
Environmental Protection Agency shows $1,020,475,660.34 in USAspending.gov obligations coded to New Jersey, across 231 awards. Awarding-agency 068 and New Jersey (NJ) are the pair. 231 awards against $1,020,475,660.34 is a 231-award environmental file, thinner than Colorado’s EPA join in this slice. The implied mean is about $4,417,643.55 per award — a quotient of two packet facts, not a typical invoice. USAspending.gov is the source. Amounts are obligations, not outlays.
Key figures
- Environmental Protection Agency obligated $1,020,475,660.34 in New Jersey across 231 awards (USAspending.gov).
- The pair is awarding-agency 068 × place-of-performance NJ.
- Amounts are obligations, not outlays; no fiscal year is in this packet.
- The implied mean near $4,417,643.55 is $1,020,475,660.34 divided by 231, not a typical award.
- The join does not name contractors and does not measure named refineries, site-score lists, or inspection tallies.
Agency 068 meeting New Jersey
Environmental Protection Agency as awarding agency, New Jersey as place-of-performance: 231 records summing to $1,020,475,660.34. A Environmental Protection Agency award coded outside NJ is out. An award in New Jersey from a different awarding agency is out even if the topic sounds related. New Jersey (NJ) excludes New York, Pennsylvania, and Delaware. A Newark-coded award with a New York place-of-performance tag is a different cell.
231 awards against $1,020,475,660.34 is a 231-award environmental file, thinner than Colorado’s EPA join in this slice. Unique recipients are unpublished. Do not read 231 as 231 unique named refineries, site-score lists, or inspection tallies. Environmental Protection Agency in New Jersey is the both-keys table. New Jersey federal spending is the all-agency state hub. Environmental Protection Agency is the agency book without an NJ filter. All spending ties lists other joins.
Interstate industrial corridors do not merge state tags. A Pennsylvania EPA cell is a different pair. Correlation is not causation: New Jersey did not cause $1,020,475,660.34 by existing as a large or small place. Population and outcome scores are not packet facts. The join is 068 × NJ only.
Cleanup folklore is not a USAspending field
$1,020,475,660.34 does not measure named refineries, site-score lists, or inspection tallies. Those series are not USAspending fields on this aggregate. The cell sums award obligations with awarding-agency code 068 and an NJ place-of-performance tag.
Do not treat 231 awards as a census of named refineries, site-score lists, or inspection tallies. Parent hubs are supposed to be larger than this pair. If New Jersey federal spending or Environmental Protection Agency matched $1,020,475,660.34 and 231, the join would be pointless. Use the overlay when both keys must stay on. Neighboring-state EPA joins are other pairs, not addends.
New Jersey, not a Port-only map
Place of performance NJ is a geography tag on the award, not a metro list and not a commuting zone. New Jersey (NJ) excludes New York, Pennsylvania, and Delaware. A Newark-coded award with a New York place-of-performance tag is a different cell. Recipient address can differ from that state tag.
This packet does not split $1,020,475,660.34 by city, county, or named facility. 231 awards stay statewide. A county table would be a different extract. Campaign-finance filings do not fund these USAspending obligations.
Two hundred thirty-one obligations
Even a thick or thin file records obligations, not necessarily outlays. $1,020,475,660.34 can include amounts that pay on a later schedule. Citing it as cash already sent in New Jersey confuses two concepts. Deobligations and upward adjustments both move the total.
New Jersey’s own budget is a different ledger. Mixing it with the 231 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 $1,020,475,660.34. Sharing a geography with Environmental Protection Agency does not mean FEC donations funded these awards.
Citing EPA in New Jersey
Cite USAspending.gov: Environmental Protection Agency (agency 068) obligated $1,020,475,660.34 on 231 awards coded to New Jersey. Name both sides. Keep “obligations.” Do not relabel the total as named refineries, site-score lists, or inspection tallies.
Prefer Environmental Protection Agency in New Jersey if the overlay has refreshed after an ingest. New Jersey federal spending still includes every other awarding agency tagged to NJ. Environmental Protection Agency is the 068 parent without the NJ filter. All spending ties indexes other pairs. Do not add those parents into $1,020,475,660.34.
A usable footnote names Environmental Protection Agency, New Jersey, $1,020,475,660.34, and 231. The compact headline $1.02B is that same dollar total rounded. It is not a second extract. The implied mean near $4,417,643.55 is $1,020,475,660.34 divided by 231. Means are not medians. USAspending.gov remains the originating system.
Port geography does not merge New York into New Jersey
New Jersey’s EPA overlay is 231 awards totaling $1,020,475,660.34. Refinery and Superfund folklore are unpublished. A New York place-of-performance tag is a different cell even when the industrial corridor looks continuous on a map.
