USAspending in Arkansas District 01

Award volume on the 01 district hub

22,890 awards is the FY2024 record count for AR-01 place of performance. That is a high action count next to $7.3B, but it is still a row stock, not a headcount of Arkansas firms. The packet does not list unique recipients or an agency mix. Modifications and assistance actions can each add a line.

Do not treat 22,890 as 22,890 local companies. One recipient can appear many times. This page will not publish an average award as if USAspending printed one. Sort the Arkansas District 01 table by amount to see whether $7.3B is spread across many lines or concentrated. AR-01 is Arkansas's 1st seat, not the 4th: 22,890 awards and $7.3B belong on this hub.

$7.3B in FY2024 obligations

USAspending.gov records $7.3B ($7,256,058,247.99) as FY2024 obligations with AR-01 place of performance. SpendingVault reports that amount as obligations, not outlays. Arkansas's operating budget is another series and is not this total. 22,890 awards share the AR-01 performance tag.

SpendingVault indexes AR-01 as FY2024 place-of-performance obligations only. The $7.3B figure does not include later fiscal years and does not convert 22,890 awards into unique firms. Cite the year as federal FY2024 when the 22,890-award count is reused. Federal FY2024 starts October 1.

Place of performance versus headquarters

Place of performance is the geography this page uses. Recipient headquarters can sit in another Arkansas district or another state while the work is coded AR-01. The opposite pattern also appears: a District 01 address on the recipient file does not force every dollar onto this page. A recipient based outside the 1st can still appear among the 22,890 rows if place of performance is AR-01.

The Arkansas District 01 page is not a directory of firms headquartered in the 1st district. It is an obligation roll-up for awards whose performance location is coded AR-01. That is why a Arkansas company based outside District 01 can still appear, and why a local HQ can be absent. 22,890 awards follow the performance tag.

Obligations, not Treasury outlays

$7.3B is an obligation sum from FY2024 award records. Outlays are a different series. SpendingVault does not convert the Arkansas District 01 obligation total into Treasury outlays. If a Arkansas spending chart uses recipient location or calendar year 2024, it is not this page. Stay with place of performance, FY2024, and obligations when quoting $7.3B.

Do not brief $7.3B as money already spent in the 1st district. Brief it as FY2024 obligations on USAspending.gov with AR-01 place of performance. 22,890 awards are the matching action stock. Cash paid is a separate USAspending series this packet does not quote.

Why AR-01 is a mapped House seat

AR-01 names a voting House seat. Leftover 90/98 bins are separate USAspending codes, and 00 is reserved for at-large states. This 1st district file is none of those. If Arkansas has unspecified performance rows, they are not inside the $7.3B mapped total. 22,890 awards already carry the numbered tag.

Open the Arkansas page for the statewide obligation index, not as a substitute for AR-01. District 01 is one mapped performance geography. 22,890 awards and $7.3B stay on the 1st hub. Other Arkansas district pages use the same format on the all-districts index.

Keeping Arkansas District 01 on one series

The $7.3B FY2024 obligation total for AR-01 is an indexed USAspending.gov statistic. SpendingVault does not convert 22,890 awards into unique firms or cash paid, and it does not merge District 01 with a 90 leftover page. A complete citation names the 1st district, FY2024, USAspending.gov, place of performance, obligations, $7.3B, and 22,890 awards.

The Arkansas District 01 hub is the live table for AR-01. The Arkansas page is the statewide obligation index. The all-districts index is the directory of other mapped seats and leftover codes. Quote $7.3B only with place of performance, federal FY2024, and the obligation series. AR-01 is Arkansas's 1st seat, not the 4th: 22,890 awards and $7.3B belong on this hub.

Arkansas District 01 can be quoted in one sentence: $7.3B in FY2024 USAspending.gov obligations on 22,890 awards with AR-01 place of performance. The unrounded packet total is $7,256,058,247.99. That sentence already names the series (obligations), the year (federal FY2024), the geography (place of performance, not headquarters), and the district code (AR-01, a numbered 1st seat rather than leftover 90/98 or at-large 00). SpendingVault does not add a unique-recipient count, an agency mix, or an outlay conversion. Readers who need the underlying rows should open the Arkansas District 01 hub; readers who need statewide Arkansas should open the Arkansas page. Do not average $7.3B across 22,890 awards. Do not fold unspecified Arkansas leftover dollars into $7.3B. First year and last year in this extract are both 2024.

Questions

What is the FY2024 obligation total for AR-01?

The FY2024 obligation total for AR-01 is $7.3B, exactly $7,256,058,247.99 in the packet. That figure is USAspending.gov place-of-performance obligations, not outlays. 22,890 awards are counted in the same extract. The year window is FY2024 only.

How is AR-01 different from district 90 or 98?

No. District 01 is a numbered voting House seat. Codes 90 and 98 are USAspending unspecified or non-voting buckets. District 00 is the at-large code; AR-01 is the numbered 1st. The $7.3B total uses the AR-01 place-of-performance code. 22,890 awards share that same numbered tag.

Does place of performance match headquarters for Arkansas District 01?

No. The district is place of performance. Recipients based outside the 1st can still appear on AR-01 if the performance location is coded to the 1st. A 1st-district headquarters can also map dollars to another district when performance is coded there. 22,890 awards follow the performance field, not HQ.

Can I treat $7.3B as cash spent in the 1st district?

No. $7.3B is not cash spent in the 1st district. It is FY2024 obligations. Outlays can lag or land in another fiscal year. Cite $7.3B with AR-01 place of performance and the obligation series. 22,890 awards are record volume, not a paid-invoice count.
