Montana 2nd District

Highway construction obligations coded to Montana 2nd District (MT-02)

CFDA 20.205 and congressional district MT-02 meet here. $1,147,944,634.35 is the USAspending.gov obligation sum on awards that carry both tags. It is not Highway Planning And Construction’s nationwide total, not every federal dollar coded to Montana 2nd District (MT-02), and not an outlay register. The packet does not split planning from construction phases and does not name routes. 620 is an action count: modifications and repeat awards add rows. Unique recipients are unpublished. It is not a mile-of-road inventory, a project-site map, or a named-contractor file.

Dividing $1,147,944,634.35 by 620 yields about $1,851,523.60 per award on average. That ratio is two packet facts. It is not a typical project cost or a posted per-mile figure. 620 awards is a thick highway file, thinner than WV-01’s 1,256-row pair and thinner than WY-00’s 913-row pair. Contractors remain unpublished. Do not treat MT-02’s 20.205 cell as a synonym for every Highway construction account nationwide. Open Montana 2nd District for the district table without this program filter, CFDA 20.205 for CFDA 20.205 without the MT-02 filter, Montana federal spending for every program in the Montana extract, and All spending ties for the rest of the join list. Quote those hubs as parents, not as addends to $1,147,944,634.35.

What Highway construction contributes to this pair

USAspending labels CFDA 20.205 as Highway Planning And Construction. That catalog number produced $1,147,944,634.35 when crossed with Montana 2nd District (MT-02) place of performance. The program-wide 20.205 hub does not require MT-02 geography. The district hub does not require Highway construction. Only this tie applies both filters, which is why it cites 620 awards. The packet does not split planning from construction phases and does not name routes.

Correlation is not causation: Montana 2nd District (MT-02) did not “cause” $1,147,944,634.35 by existing as a large or small place. Population, outcome scores, and named facilities are not packet facts. The join is 20.205 × MT-02 only. It is not a mile-of-road inventory, a project-site map, or a named-contractor file. Do not invent contractors or award recipients to fill the gap. Campaign donations on FEC tables do not fund this USAspending cell; the datasets are separate.

Does $1,147,944,634.35 include every Highway construction project in MT-02?

The packet publishes one CFDA rollup. The packet does not split planning from construction phases and does not name routes. $1,147,944,634.35 is the combined obligation sum for CFDA 20.205 inside MT-02 coding. This page will not invent a project pie or name contractors. Open CFDA 20.205 and Montana 2nd District to inspect parent tables. 620 remains an action count, not a count of miles, projects, or contractors.

Is $1,147,944,634.35 cash already paid in Montana 2nd District (MT-02)?

No. Obligations are commitments recorded on USAspending.gov awards. Outlays — money that actually left the Treasury — are a different concept and are not this packet’s headline. Treating $1,147,944,634.35 as checks already cleared in Montana 2nd District (MT-02) confuses those terms. Later ingests can revise 620 awards. Prefer the live district and program hubs if the tables moved.
