Environmental Protection Agency federal obligations in New Mexico
USAspending.gov records $470,630,678.53 in Environmental Protection Agency obligations with New Mexico place of performance, across 189 awards. That pair is an awarding-agency filter crossed with a geography filter, not a national EPA budget. 189 awards against $470,630,678.53 is a 189-award environmental file, thicker than North Dakota’s EPA join. Average obligation per award is about $2,490,109.41 — a ratio of two packet facts, not a typical project. Amounts are obligations, not outlays.
Key figures
- Environmental Protection Agency obligated $470,630,678.53 in New Mexico across 189 awards (USAspending.gov).
- The pair is awarding-agency 068 × place-of-performance NM.
- Amounts are obligations, not outlays; no fiscal year is in this packet.
- The implied mean near $2,490,109.41 is $470,630,678.53 divided by 189, not a typical award.
- The join does not name contractors and does not measure Superfund site counts, mine inventories, or named facilities.
Agency 068 meeting New Mexico
Environmental Protection Agency as awarding agency, New Mexico as place-of-performance: 189 awards summing to $470,630,678.53. A Environmental Protection Agency award coded outside NM is out. An award in New Mexico from a different awarding agency is out even if the topic sounds related. New Mexico (NM) excludes Texas, Oklahoma, Colorado, Utah, and Arizona. An Albuquerque-coded award with a Texas place-of-performance tag is a different cell.
189 awards against $470,630,678.53 is a 189-award environmental file, thicker than North Dakota’s EPA join. Unique recipients are unpublished. Do not read 189 as 189 unique Superfund site counts, mine inventories, or named facilities. Environmental Protection Agency in New Mexico is the both-keys table. New Mexico federal spending is the all-agency state hub. Environmental Protection Agency is the agency book without a NM filter. All spending ties lists other joins.
Named basins and labs are unpublished. Do not invent contractors. North Dakota and Oregon EPA pages in this slice are other state keys on agency 068. Correlation is not causation: New Mexico did not cause $470,630,678.53 by existing as a large or small place. Population and outcome scores are not packet facts. The join is 068 × NM only.
Cleanup folklore is unpublished
$470,630,678.53 does not measure Superfund site counts, mine inventories, or named facilities. Those series are not USAspending fields on this aggregate. The cell sums award obligations with awarding-agency code 068 and an NM place-of-performance tag.
Do not treat 189 awards as a census of Superfund site counts, mine inventories, or named facilities. Parent hubs are supposed to be larger than this pair. If New Mexico federal spending or Environmental Protection Agency matched $470,630,678.53 and 189, the join would be pointless. Use the overlay when both keys must stay on. Neighboring-state EPA joins are other pairs, not addends.
New Mexico, not an Albuquerque-only map
Place of performance NM is a geography tag on the award, not a metro list and not a commuting zone. New Mexico (NM) excludes Texas, Oklahoma, Colorado, Utah, and Arizona. An Albuquerque-coded award with a Texas place-of-performance tag is a different cell. Recipient address can differ from that state tag.
This packet does not split $470,630,678.53 by city, county, or named facility. 189 awards stay statewide. A county table would be a different extract. Campaign-finance filings do not fund these USAspending obligations.
One hundred eighty-nine obligations
Even a thick or thin file records obligations, not necessarily outlays. $470,630,678.53 can include amounts that pay on a later schedule. Citing it as cash already sent in New Mexico confuses two concepts. Deobligations and upward adjustments both move the total.
New Mexico’s own budget is a different ledger. Mixing it with the 189 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 $470,630,678.53.
Citing EPA in New Mexico
Cite USAspending.gov: Environmental Protection Agency (agency 068) obligated $470,630,678.53 on 189 awards coded to New Mexico. Name both sides. Keep “obligations.” Do not relabel the total as Superfund site counts, mine inventories, or named facilities.
Prefer Environmental Protection Agency in New Mexico if the overlay has refreshed after an ingest. New Mexico federal spending still includes every other awarding agency tagged to NM. Environmental Protection Agency is the 068 parent without the NM filter. All spending ties indexes other pairs. Do not add those parents into $470,630,678.53.
A usable footnote names Environmental Protection Agency, New Mexico, $470,630,678.53, and 189. The compact headline $470.6M is that same dollar total rounded. It is not a second extract. The implied mean near $2,490,109.41 is $470,630,678.53 divided by 189. Means are not medians. USAspending.gov remains the originating system.
