 "methodology": "Every row is a verbatim sentence read from the named source's own page through our fetch service on the date shown, hash-pinned to the stored read (the sha of the page's visible text; the raw page is mirrored to R2). 4 of the 10 named sources that could be read published a usable figure; 6 published none and are recorded as not published, never filled in; 0 could not be read (blocked, dead or unreachable) and count nowhere. The headline figures (median, minimum, maximum, quartiles) are over ONE figure per source in USD (a source's median where its page yielded several accepted sentences), so N counts sources, never sentences; 45 candidate sentence(s) were refused by a reviewer with the reason recorded. The fuller derivation this dataset is chartered to grow into (not yet what the figures above are; they are each source's own published figure as read): one row per rule per effective date, quoted verbatim from the eCFR section with the date the section was last amended: the de minimis indirect rate, the record-retention period per record class, the cost-sharing rule, the single-audit threshold, the closeout deadlines. The derivation is the CHANGE HISTORY nobody assembles - what each figure was before and after the 2024 rewrite and the 2026 revision, and what that does to a grantee's books - plus changed-since on every read, which is the news the day OMB moves one.",
