 "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). 3 of the 20 named sources that could be read published a usable figure; 17 published none and are recorded as not published, never filled in; 1 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; 31 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 state: whether painting needs a state licence at all, the classification code and its threshold, the fee and the bond, joined to the EPA Lead-Safe Certified Firm register and to the Census establishment count for NAICS 238320; the derived figures are the share of states that licence painting, the count of certified firms per state and per capita, and changed-since - no authority publishes the fifty-state picture, each publishes only its own",
