Gulf Coast Ecosystem Restoration Council federal obligations in Mississippi

Council 471 meeting Mississippi

Gulf Coast Ecosystem Restoration Council as awarding agency, Mississippi as place-of-performance: 27 records summing to $138,910,092.96. A Gulf Coast Ecosystem Restoration Council award coded outside MS is out. An award in Mississippi from a different awarding agency is out even if the topic sounds related. Mississippi (MS) excludes Alabama, Louisiana, Arkansas, and Tennessee. A Gulfport-coded award with a Louisiana place-of-performance tag is a different cell.

27 awards against $138,910,092.96 is a thin restoration-council file, not a Corps of Engineers book. Unique recipients are unpublished. Do not read 27 as 27 unique acres restored, named marsh projects, or settlement-line folklore. Gulf Coast Ecosystem Restoration Council in Mississippi is the both-keys table. Mississippi federal spending is the all-agency state hub. Gulf Coast Ecosystem Restoration Council is the agency book without an MS filter. All spending ties lists other joins.

The Council is the awarding agency on this join, not a named-parish ledger and not a Deepwater Horizon narrative the packet never stored. Correlation is not causation: Mississippi did not cause $138,910,092.96 by existing as a large or small place. Population and outcome scores are not packet facts. The join is 471 × MS only.

Restoration folklore is not a USAspending field

$138,910,092.96 does not measure acres restored, named marsh projects, or settlement-line folklore. Those series are not USAspending fields on this aggregate. The cell sums award obligations with awarding-agency code 471 and an MS place-of-performance tag.

Do not treat 27 awards as a census of acres restored, named marsh projects, or settlement-line folklore. Parent hubs are supposed to be larger than this pair. If Mississippi federal spending or Gulf Coast Ecosystem Restoration Council matched $138,910,092.96 and 27, the join would be pointless. Use the overlay when both keys must stay on. Neighboring-state GCERC joins are other pairs, not addends.

Mississippi, not a Coast-only map

Place of performance MS is a geography tag on the award, not a metro list and not a commuting zone. Mississippi (MS) excludes Alabama, Louisiana, Arkansas, and Tennessee. A Gulfport-coded award with a Louisiana place-of-performance tag is a different cell. Recipient address can differ from that state tag.

This packet does not split $138,910,092.96 by city, county, or named facility. 27 awards stay statewide. A county table would be a different extract. Campaign-finance filings do not fund these USAspending obligations.

Twenty-seven awards, still obligations

Even a thick or thin file records obligations, not necessarily outlays. $138,910,092.96 can include amounts that pay on a later schedule. Citing it as cash already sent in Mississippi confuses two concepts. Deobligations and upward adjustments both move the total.

Mississippi’s own budget is a different ledger. Mixing it with the 27 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 $138,910,092.96. Sharing a geography with Gulf Coast Ecosystem Restoration Council does not mean FEC donations funded these awards.

Citing the Restoration Council in Mississippi

Cite USAspending.gov: Gulf Coast Ecosystem Restoration Council (agency 471) obligated $138,910,092.96 on 27 awards coded to Mississippi. Name both sides. Keep “obligations.” Do not relabel the total as acres restored, named marsh projects, or settlement-line folklore.

Prefer Gulf Coast Ecosystem Restoration Council in Mississippi if the overlay has refreshed after an ingest. Mississippi federal spending still includes every other awarding agency tagged to MS. Gulf Coast Ecosystem Restoration Council is the 471 parent without the MS filter. All spending ties indexes other pairs. Do not add those parents into $138,910,092.96.

A usable footnote names Gulf Coast Ecosystem Restoration Council, Mississippi, $138,910,092.96, and 27. The compact headline $138.9M is that same dollar total rounded. It is not a second extract. The implied mean near $5,144,818.26 is $138,910,092.96 divided by 27. Means are not medians. USAspending.gov remains the originating system.

A Gulf Council cell is not a Corps book

Mississippi’s Gulf Coast Ecosystem Restoration Council overlay is awarding-agency 471, not the Army Corps of Engineers and not NOAA. Barrier-island and oyster-reef folklore are unpublished. Twenty-seven awards do not become twenty-seven named marshes. Louisiana and Alabama Council joins are other pairs.
