EPA federal obligations in Virginia 5th District (VA-05)

EPA × VA-05 is 85 awards, not 85 water systems

This page is a join: Environmental Protection Agency and Virginia 5th District (VA-05). SpendingVault sums tagged obligations: $497,439,688.23 on 85 awards for awarding agency 068 with Virginia 5th District (VA-05) as place of performance. Agency 068 crossed with Virginia 5th District (VA-05) is an EPA listing filter, not a water-system census and not a ranking against VA-09. Treat the pair as a table intersection, not a ranking of districts as winners or losers, and not a claim that 85 awards equal that many water systems, Superfund sites, or named grantees.

VA-09 EPA is a different district pair on the same agency. Mixing the two cells would invent a combined south-central Virginia EPA figure the packet never summed. Correlation between this obligation sum and local activity statistics is not causation. Those statistics are not in the packet. Place of performance as VA-05 locates the tagged awards; it does not deposit $497,439,688.23 in a district treasury. Campaign contributions recorded on FEC.gov do not fund this USAspending cell.

Eighty-five EPA rows, thicker than VA-09's file

Eighty-five records is thicker than VA-09's thirteen-award EPA file and still a short list, not a system census. Mean obligation is about $5.85 million if $497,439,688.23 were divided evenly across 85 lines. That ratio is a quotient of two packet facts, not a published typical award. Award count is a row count of USAspending awards, including possible modifications. It is not a census of water systems, Superfund sites, or named grantees. Unique recipients are unpublished.

Agency code 068 is the Environmental Protection Agency. The awarding-agency tag does not name sites or grantees. This packet lists none of them. Utility and site names are unpublished. Eighty-five awards are not eighty-five south-central Virginia systems. Open Virginia 5th District (/districts/VA-05/) for the stored district table and Environmental Protection Agency (/agencies/068/) for the national agency shelf. The $497,439,688.23 total remains an obligation rollup on tagged awards.

Virginia 5th District as EPA place of performance

Virginia 5th District (VA-05) is a congressional place-of-performance code. VA-09 EPA and VA-03 GSA are other joins. A North Carolina-coded EPA award is another cell. The district's all-agency obligation total is $9,558,096,821.70. $497,439,688.23 is the Environmental Protection Agency slice of that book, about 5.2%. Remaining district dollars sit with other awarding agencies on Virginia 5th District, not inside this join. Virginia federal spending (/states/va/) is the statewide parent.

An obligation is a recorded commitment. An outlay is a payment. The $497,439,688.23 headline is the obligation sum, not cleanups already finished or SRF draws already made. No fiscal year is attached in this packet, so this page does not invent one. Citing the figure as cash already sent in Virginia 5th District (VA-05) confuses two USAspending concepts. Deobligations and upward adjustments both move the total.

VA-05 EPA dollars are commitments, not permits closed

The extract has no roster of water systems, Superfund sites, or named grantees. Facts remain $497,439,688.23, 85 awards, agency 068 (Environmental Protection Agency), Virginia 5th District (VA-05), and a district-wide book of $9,558,096,821.70. This page will not invent a contractor league table. Sibling district-agency joins are separate obligation totals, not a better or worse score. Confusing this join with a statewide EPA total or the VA-09 EPA overlay would be a different overlay.

Keep the obligation word on $497,439,688.23. Keep both Environmental Protection Agency and Virginia 5th District (VA-05) in the citation. All spending ties (/ties/) indexes other pairs. Mixing those shelves would invent a share of Virginia spending or of Environmental Protection Agency's national book the packet never computed. The $497,439,688.23 figure is the tagged pair only.

Citing agency 068 in Virginia 5th District (VA-05)

A clean footnote names Environmental Protection Agency (agency 068), Virginia 5th District (VA-05), $497,439,688.23 in obligations, and 85 awards on USAspending.gov. Start at /districts/VA-05/ for the district overlay, /agencies/068/ for the agency rollup, /states/va/ for Virginia statewide spending, and /ties/ for other pairs. If a later ingest moves the live overlay, prefer the overlay when the table and this snapshot diverge. A ties page exists because two tables meet.
