Texas 13th District

What the Highway planning–TX-13 join is

CFDA 20.205 and congressional district TX-13 meet here. $910,434,492.20 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 Texas 13th District (TX-13), and not an outlay register. The packet does not split planning from construction, and it does not name contractors. 164 is an action count: modifications and repeat awards add rows. Unique recipients are unpublished. It is not a lane-mile inventory, a project-letting calendar, or a named-contractor roster.

Dividing $910,434,492.20 by 164 yields about $5,551,429.83 per award on average. That ratio is two packet facts. It is not a published cost per mile and not a typical project. 164 awards sits near New York 22nd’s 119-row 20.205 file. Unique contractors are unpublished. Do not treat TX-13’s 20.205 cell as a synonym for every Highway planning account nationwide. Open Texas 13th District for the district table without this program filter, CFDA 20.205 for CFDA 20.205 without the TX-13 filter, Texas federal spending for every program in the Texas extract, and All spending ties for the rest of the join list. Quote those hubs as parents, not as addends to $910,434,492.20.

CFDA 20.205 as the Highway planning side

USAspending labels CFDA 20.205 as Highway Planning And Construction. That catalog number produced $910,434,492.20 when crossed with Texas 13th District (TX-13) place of performance. The program hub does not require TX-13 geography. The district hub does not require Highway planning. Only this tie applies both filters, which is why it cites 164 awards. The packet does not split planning from construction, and it does not name contractors.

Correlation is not causation: Texas 13th District (TX-13) did not cause $910,434,492.20 by existing as a large or small place, and VMT or lane miles figures are not packet facts. The join is 20.205 × TX-13 only. It is not a lane-mile inventory, a project-letting calendar, or a named-contractor roster. 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.

Questions

How much Highway planning spending is coded to Texas 13th District (TX-13)?

USAspending.gov lists $910,434,492.20 in Highway Planning And Construction obligations across 164 awards with place of performance in Texas 13th District (TX-13). CFDA 20.205 × TX-13 is an obligation join, not an outlay and not Texas’s complete federal ledger. The cell is 2.6% of the district’s published total ($35,485,144,728.31). Unique recipients are unpublished. Average obligation is about $5,551,429.83, a ratio of those two facts only.

Do 164 awards mean 164 projects, miles, or contractors in TX-13?

No. Award count is a row count of USAspending actions and can include continuations and modifications. It is not a count of projects, miles, or contractors. The packet does not name recipients. See Texas 13th District for named lines as USAspending stored them. The packet does not split planning from construction, and it does not name contractors.

Is $910,434,492.20 cash already paid in Texas 13th District (TX-13)?

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 $910,434,492.20 as pavement already placed confuses those terms. Later ingests can revise 164 awards. Prefer the live district and program hubs if the tables moved.

Where is the live Highway planning–TX-13 table?

Texas 13th District is the district parent and CFDA 20.205 is the program parent. Texas federal spending covers Texas without the district×program intersection as the headline. All spending ties lists other pairs. Those hubs are not addends. Keep both sides of the join when citing $910,434,492.20. Place of performance is TX-13. Obligations are not outlays.
