Environmental Protection Agency federal obligations in North Dakota

Fifty-eight EPA rows on North Dakota

Environmental Protection Agency as awarding agency, North Dakota as place-of-performance: 58 awards summing to $496,176,527. A Environmental Protection Agency award coded outside ND is out. An award in North Dakota from a different awarding agency is out even if the topic sounds related. North Dakota (ND) excludes Minnesota, South Dakota, and Montana. A Fargo-coded award with a Minnesota place-of-performance tag is a different cell.

58 awards against $496,176,527 is a 58-award environmental file, the thinnest EPA join in this slice. Unique recipients are unpublished. Do not read 58 as 58 unique Superfund site counts, well inventories, or named facilities. Environmental Protection Agency in North Dakota is the both-keys table. North Dakota federal spending is the all-agency state hub. Environmental Protection Agency is the agency book without a ND filter. All spending ties lists other joins.

Fifty-eight awards against about $496 million is a high-mean file. Unique facilities are unpublished. Do not invent them. Oil-field folklore is not a packet field. Correlation is not causation: North Dakota did not cause $496,176,527 by existing as a large or small place. Population and outcome scores are not packet facts. The join is 068 × ND only.

A thin EPA file is not a site census

$496,176,527 does not measure Superfund site counts, well 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 ND place-of-performance tag.

Do not treat 58 awards as a census of Superfund site counts, well inventories, or named facilities. Parent hubs are supposed to be larger than this pair. If North Dakota federal spending or Environmental Protection Agency matched $496,176,527 and 58, the join would be pointless. Use the overlay when both keys must stay on. Neighboring-state EPA joins are other pairs, not addends.

North Dakota, not a Bakken-only map

Place of performance ND is a geography tag on the award, not a metro list and not a commuting zone. North Dakota (ND) excludes Minnesota, South Dakota, and Montana. A Fargo-coded award with a Minnesota place-of-performance tag is a different cell. Recipient address can differ from that state tag.

This packet does not split $496,176,527 by city, county, or named facility. 58 awards stay statewide. A county table would be a different extract. Campaign-finance filings do not fund these USAspending obligations.

Large implied means, still obligations

Even a thick or thin file records obligations, not necessarily outlays. $496,176,527 can include amounts that pay on a later schedule. Citing it as cash already sent in North Dakota confuses two concepts. Deobligations and upward adjustments both move the total.

North Dakota’s own budget is a different ledger. Mixing it with the 58 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 $496,176,527.

Citing EPA in North Dakota

Cite USAspending.gov: Environmental Protection Agency (agency 068) obligated $496,176,527 on 58 awards coded to North Dakota. Name both sides. Keep “obligations.” Do not relabel the total as Superfund site counts, well inventories, or named facilities.

Prefer Environmental Protection Agency in North Dakota if the overlay has refreshed after an ingest. North Dakota federal spending still includes every other awarding agency tagged to ND. Environmental Protection Agency is the 068 parent without the ND filter. All spending ties indexes other pairs. Do not add those parents into $496,176,527.

A usable footnote names Environmental Protection Agency, North Dakota, $496,176,527, and 58. The compact headline $496.2M is that same dollar total rounded. It is not a second extract. The implied mean near $8,554,767.71 is $496,176,527 divided by 58. Means are not medians. USAspending.gov remains the originating system.
