FY2024 USAspending in Alaska’s at-large district

Why the file uses district 00

Alaska elects one at-large member of the House. USAspending.gov stores that statewide seat as district 00, written here as AK-00. The $53.1 billion FY2024 obligation total is the place-of-performance roll-up for that at-large geography, not a “zero district” and not an unspecified bucket. Alaska’s $53.1 billion at-large total is the FY2024 obligation file for district 00. It is not a 90 leftover and not a Lower 48 comparison. 27,361 awards are the matching AK-00 row count.

District 00 is not district 90 or 98. Those codes are USAspending unspecified and non-voting bins. AK-00 is the mapped at-large seat. Unspecified Alaska performance, if any, would live on a 90 page rather than inside this at-large table. Do not treat $53.1 billion as a calendar-year 2024 figure. Federal FY2024 starts October 1. The 27,361-award count uses that same fiscal window.

$53.1 billion in FY2024 obligations

The $53.1 billion figure is the obligation aggregate on award records whose place of performance is Alaska at-large for fiscal year 2024. Obligation means a recorded commitment. It is not Treasury cash already paid, and it is not Alaska’s state operating budget. Even statewide, the district field is still place of performance. A Lower 48 headquarters can appear in the 27,361 rows if performance is coded AK-00.

The packet’s year range is FY2024 only. First year and last year are both 2024. Federal fiscal years begin on October 1. Later USAspending.gov corrections can revise $53.1 billion and the 27,361-award count. District 00 names the at-large seat. District 90 would be unspecified Alaska performance, a different page from this $53.1 billion hub.

Place of performance across a statewide seat

Even for an at-large state, the district field is still place of performance, not recipient headquarters. A contractor based in the Lower 48 can appear on AK-00 if the performance location is coded to Alaska’s at-large district. An Alaska-headquartered recipient can post dollars to another state’s district if that is where performance is reported.

Because Alaska has a single House district, AK-00 covers the state’s mapped place-of-performance rows for that seat. It is still not a substitute for every federal dollar touching Alaska: unspecified 90/98 rows, if present, stay on their own pages, and recipient-location maps are a different cut.

27,361 rows can include modifications. The packet does not count unique Alaska vendors. The Alaska At-Large hub is the table. $53.1 billion remains the FY2024 obligation roll-up for AK-00 place of performance.

27,361 awards in the at-large extract

27,361 is the FY2024 record count for AK-00 place of performance. Modifications and assistance actions can each add a row. The packet does not publish unique recipients or an agency mix.

Do not divide $53.1 billion by 27,361 awards. That quotient is not in the packet. Keep the dollar total and the row count as separate facts and use the Alaska At-Large hub to inspect lines.

A complete AK-00 citation names at-large (district 00), FY2024, USAspending.gov, place of performance, obligations, $53.1 billion, and 27,361 awards. Calling the code “unspecified” would confuse it with district 90.

Obligations versus outlays, and the state hub

The $53.1 billion total is the obligation series. Outlays measure disbursements and can lag. SpendingVault does not recast AK-00 as cash paid. If another Alaska headline disagrees, check series, fiscal year, and whether geography is performance or HQ.

The Alaska state page is the statewide obligation view. AK-00 is the at-large place-of-performance district. The all-districts index lists other states’ mapped seats in the same format. This packet does not rank Alaska against other districts.

The Alaska state page is the statewide view. AK-00 is the at-large mapped seat. They are related but not interchangeable if unspecified 90 rows exist on their own hub. This packet does not quote a statewide total.

Citing Alaska’s at-large file without mixing codes

The $53.1 billion FY2024 obligation total for AK-00 answers how USAspending.gov tagged place of performance to Alaska’s at-large district in that fiscal year. It does not convert 27,361 awards into unique firms, and it does not recode district 00 as a 90/98 leftover.

Outlay tables, headquarters maps, and calendar-year charts are other products. Do not drop $53.1 billion onto those grids unless they already use place of performance, federal FY2024, and obligations. The Alaska state hub and the all-districts index remain the related geography on the same series rules.

Questions

How much federal spending is in Alaska’s at-large district?

USAspending.gov shows $53.1 billion in FY2024 obligations with place of performance in Alaska’s at-large district (AK-00). That is not an outlay total and not Alaska’s state budget. The extract counts 27,361 awards for AK-00 in FY2024. The packet year range is FY2024 only.

What does district 00 mean for Alaska?

USAspending stores Alaska’s single at-large House seat as district 00. AK-00 is that mapped seat, not an unspecified 90 bucket and not a non-voting 98 bucket. The $53.1 billion total uses that at-large place-of-performance code. 27,361 awards share the same AK-00 tag.

Are Alaska at-large dollars based on contractor headquarters?

No. The district is place of performance. Recipients based outside Alaska can still appear on AK-00 if the performance location is coded to the at-large district. An Alaska headquarters can also map dollars to another state’s district when performance is coded there.

Is $53.1 billion in AK-00 already paid out?

No. $53.1 billion is an obligation sum from FY2024 award records. Outlays are a different series. SpendingVault does not convert the Alaska at-large obligation total into Treasury outlays. Cite the figure with the obligation label and the FY2024 window. Cite AK-00 as the at-large mapped seat, FY2024 obligations, and place of performance, not as an unspecified bucket.
