Greenhouse Gas Reduction Fund: Section 134(A)(1) - Zero Emission Technologies Grant Program (CFDA 66.959) shows $62,450,000 in USAspending.gov obligations coded to Vermont on 1 award. A single instrument carries the entire cell, so the implied mean equals the headline: $62,450,000. This page joins EPA catalog 66.959 to the Vermont place-of-performance tag. It is not a project list, a technology census, or cash already paid.
Key figures
- CFDA 66.959 shows $62,450,000 in Vermont obligations on 1 award.
- The single instrument equals the cell total; recipients are unpublished.
- The catalog is the Section 134(A)(1) zero-emission technologies grant line, not every EPA climate program.
- Vermont is a place-of-performance tag, not a project census.
- Figures are obligations, not outlays.
One award, one catalog, one state tag
CFDA 66.959 is titled GREENHOUSE GAS REDUCTION FUND: SECTION 134(A)(1) - ZERO EMISSION TECHNOLOGIES GRANT PROGRAM. Filtered to Vermont place of performance, obligations sum to $62,450,000 on 1 award. The national 66.959 hub includes every other state that carries the catalog. Vermont federal spending includes every other program. This tie is only the intersection of those two filters.
Because the award count is 1, $62,450,000 is both the cell total and the sole instrument amount in the aggregate. That does not identify a recipient. Unique recipients are unpublished. Do not invent contractors, utilities, or award recipients to attach a name to the row.
An obligation is not an outlay. The packet publishes no fiscal year, so $62,450,000 cannot be treated as a single appropriation cycle or as a completed drawdown. Correlation is not causation.
66.959 is not every EPA climate catalog in Vermont
Other Greenhouse Gas Reduction Fund sections and other EPA assistance lines sit on different CFDA numbers. Mixing those dollars into $62,450,000 would invent a broader total than this 66.959 × VT cell contains. Facts available: Vermont, CFDA 66.959, $62,450,000, 1 award. The program name on the packet matches the catalog title, including the Section 134(A)(1) clause.
A single $62,450,000 instrument is a large assistance record, not a typical household rebate and not a count of vehicles, chargers, or heat pumps. One is a record count in an aggregate, not one finished technology deployment and not one Vermont town.
Vermont geography on the 66.959 tag
VT is the place-of-performance code on the award that rolls into $62,450,000. An instrument billed to Burlington, Montpelier, or another Vermont locality can carry that tag. Awards coded to New Hampshire, New York, or Massachusetts stay outside the cell even when a grid, watershed, or service territory crosses a border. The code does not convert $62.45 million into a project map.
Vermont federal spending is the all-program parent. 66.959 is one row on Vermont programs. $62,450,000 is not the state's complete federal footprint. Open Greenhouse Gas Reduction Fund: Section 134(A)(1) - Zero Emission Technologies Grant Program in Vermont for the filtered table, CFDA 66.959 for the program without a Vermont filter, and All spending ties for other pairs. Do not add those parents into this cell.
Reading a one-award cell
$62,450,000 ÷ 1 is $62,450,000. There is no second instrument in the facts to compute a median. Net obligations can include downward modifications; the total shown is the aggregate in the facts. Treat 1 as a USAspending award-record count, not as one completed installation.
Without a transaction register on this page, you cannot see whether the row is a new award, a continuation, or a correction. Later ingests can restate $62,450,000 without changing the join key of 66.959 and VT.
What the 66.959–Vermont pair does not prove
A Zero Emission Technologies Grant Program total tagged to Vermont does not measure emissions reduced, jobs created, or devices installed, and it does not equal cash disbursed. FEC donations do not fund this USAspending cell. Correlation is not causation. The headline remains $62,450,000 on 1 award for CFDA 66.959 in Vermont.
Keep both sides of the join: Greenhouse Gas Reduction Fund Section 134(A)(1) Zero Emission Technologies Grant Program and Vermont, obligations only. Do not annualize $62,450,000 without a year field. Quote USAspending.gov and the overlay path rather than a deployment story.
