Oil Spill Impact × GCERC is CFDA 87.052, not a parish census
This page is a join: Gulf Coast Ecosystem Restoration Council Oil Spill Impact Program (CFDA 87.052) and the Gulf Coast Ecosystem Restoration Council (agency 471). $594,212,444.46 is the obligation sum on that pair. It is not the government-wide assistance total, not every CFDA on All programs, and not cash already paid. Correlation is not causation: a large pair cell does not prove the Gulf Coast Ecosystem Restoration Council caused activity described by the program title, or the reverse. Campaign-finance tables are a different dataset; FEC donations do not fund these USAspending obligations.
/programs/87.052/ is the program parent without an awarding-agency filter. /agencies/471/ is the agency parent without this CFDA filter. /ties/ lists other pairs and /programs/ lists other CFDA hubs. A Gulf Coast Ecosystem Restoration Council Oil Spill Impact Program award tagged to a different awarding agency sits outside this cell even if the CFDA is still 87.052. A Gulf Coast Ecosystem Restoration Council award on a different CFDA sits outside even if the topic sounds related. Ninety-two awards is not 92 unique restoration projects. The awarding agency on this join is the Gulf Coast Ecosystem Restoration Council (agency 471), not Treasury.
Gulf Coast Ecosystem Restoration Council Oil Spill Impact Program as the program side
CFDA 87.052 is Gulf Coast Ecosystem Restoration Council Oil Spill Impact Program. Confusing this join with Treasury RESTORE 21.015, Interior wetlands 15.623, or a BP-settlement folklore table would be a different table. Packet facts on the program side are the name Gulf Coast Ecosystem Restoration Council Oil Spill Impact Program, number 87.052, and program-wide obligations $594,212,444.46. This packet lists no award recipients and no contractor names. Any other vendor, school, tribe, carrier, or grantee list would be invented.
Readers sometimes treat a CFDA–agency total as a budget Congress passed for a named activity. $594,212,444.46 is not that. It is the USAspending obligation rollup tagged to Gulf Coast Ecosystem Restoration Council Oil Spill Impact Program and awarded by the Gulf Coast Ecosystem Restoration Council. Cite both sides. Do not merge this cell with Resources And Ecosystems Sustainability, Tourist Opportunities, And Revived Economies Of The Gulf Coast States (CFDA 21.015) awarded by Treasury.
Gulf Coast Ecosystem Restoration Council as the awarding-agency side
Awarding-agency code 471 is the Gulf Coast Ecosystem Restoration Council. It is not a bureau split inside that department, not a place-of-performance state, and not a NAICS industry. In this extract the pair cell $594,212,444.46 matches the program-wide obligation total $594,212,444.46. Do not treat the program-wide $594,212,444.46 as if it were automatically the pair headline when the two figures differ. When they match, equality still does not name recipients.
92 awards behind the oil-spill–Council cell
The extract lists 92 awards on the Oil Spill Impact × GCERC pair. A compact council-assistance file: 92 awards against a large obligation total. Dividing $594,212,444.46 by 92 yields about $6.46 million per award — a quotient of two packet facts, not a typical invoice and not a median. Unique recipients are unpublished. Modifications can add rows without naming a new organization. 92 is not a spill-damage acreage map, a named-parish roster, or a restoration-project catalog.
Oil-spill impact obligations are not restoration invoices already paid
An obligation is a legal commitment. An outlay is a payment. $594,212,444.46 is the former. Citing it as cash already cleared over-reads the field. The join cannot say that the Gulf Coast Ecosystem Restoration Council specialized in oil spill impact because of federal demand. Keep $594,212,444.46 labeled as Gulf Coast Ecosystem Restoration Council Oil Spill Impact Program obligations awarded by the Gulf Coast Ecosystem Restoration Council. It is not a spill-damage acreage map, a named-parish roster, or a restoration-project catalog. The packet publishes no fiscal year, so this page does not invent one.
Budget justifications, program catalogs, and private scorecards answer other questions. They are not the source of this cell. If a chart mixes Treasury RESTORE 21.015, Interior wetlands 15.623, or a BP-settlement folklore table with CFDA 87.052 at agency 471, the chart has left this join. Project titles, parish names, and settlement folklore are unpublished on this packet.
