USAspending.gov obligations in Arkansas District 04

$7.6B on USAspending.gov for the 4th district

Arkansas District 04 shows $7.6B in FY2024 USAspending.gov obligations for place of performance. The indexed total is $7,630,161,345.60 across 16,158 awards. Those dollars are award commitments, not outlays. AR-04 is a numbered House seat, not an unspecified 90 code.

Until USAspending.gov revises the extract, $7.6B and 16,158 awards are the FY2024 AR-04 stock. The packet does not publish a prior-year comparison. Quote $7.6B with the obligation label and the FY2024 window. Arkansas's 4th district lists 16,158 awards against $7.6B, a high action count for that obligation total.

16,158 FY2024 actions coded to AR-04

16,158 awards is the FY2024 record count for AR-04 place of performance. That is a high action count next to $7.6B, 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 16,158 as 16,158 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 04 table by amount to see whether $7.6B is spread across many lines or concentrated. Arkansas's 4th district lists 16,158 awards against $7.6B, a high action count for that obligation total.

Keeping Arkansas District 04 off leftover bins

Keep Arkansas District 04 off leftover bins. A 90 or 98 Arkansas page, if it exists, is a different geography from the 4th district. AR-04 is numbered, not unspecified. $7.6B does not include those leftover codes. 16,158 awards are the mapped 4th action stock for FY2024.

The all-districts index lists AR-04 next to other Arkansas seats and leftover codes. Side-by-side listing does not make those geographies the same. Stay on the Arkansas District 04 hub for $7.6B. Statewide figures live on the Arkansas page, which this packet does not reprint.

The district field on Arkansas District 04

The Arkansas District 04 page is not a directory of firms headquartered in the 4th district. It is an obligation roll-up for awards whose performance location is coded AR-04. That is why a Arkansas company based outside District 04 can still appear, and why a local HQ can be absent. 16,158 awards follow the performance tag.

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-04. The opposite pattern also appears: a District 04 address on the recipient file does not force every dollar onto this page. A recipient based outside the 4th can still appear among the 16,158 rows if place of performance is AR-04.

Outlays are a different Arkansas product

Do not brief $7.6B as money already spent in the 4th district. Brief it as FY2024 obligations on USAspending.gov with AR-04 place of performance. 16,158 awards are the matching action stock. Cash paid is a separate USAspending series this packet does not quote.

$7.6B is an obligation sum from FY2024 award records. Outlays are a different series. SpendingVault does not convert the Arkansas District 04 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 $7.6B.

Using the Arkansas District 04 hub and related pages

Stay on AR-04 for the 4th district file. Other Arkansas mapped seats have their own hubs; this packet does not quote those other figures. The all-districts index lists other Arkansas seats and unspecified buckets in the same format. A headquarters in the 4th without a AR-04 tag does not enter this file.

The Arkansas District 04 hub is the live table for AR-04. The Arkansas page is the statewide obligation index. The all-districts index is the directory of other mapped seats and leftover codes. Quote $7.6B only with place of performance, federal FY2024, and the obligation series. Arkansas's 4th district lists 16,158 awards against $7.6B, a high action count for that obligation total.

Arkansas District 04 can be quoted in one sentence: $7.6B in FY2024 USAspending.gov obligations on 16,158 awards with AR-04 place of performance. The unrounded packet total is $7,630,161,345.60. That sentence already names the series (obligations), the year (federal FY2024), the geography (place of performance, not headquarters), and the district code (AR-04, a numbered 4th 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 04 hub; readers who need statewide Arkansas should open the Arkansas page. Do not average $7.6B across 16,158 awards. Do not fold unspecified Arkansas leftover dollars into $7.6B. First year and last year in this extract are both 2024.

Questions

How should I cite Arkansas District 04 federal spending?

Cite numbered AR-04, FY2024, USAspending.gov, place of performance, obligations, $7.6B, and 16,158 awards. The exact packet sum is $7,630,161,345.60. Do not call the geography unspecified, at-large, or cash paid. The Arkansas District 04 hub is the table for those rows.

Is District 04 the same as Arkansas's statewide total?

No. The Arkansas statewide hub is a different roll-up. AR-04 is one mapped performance district. Statewide Arkansas includes other numbered seats and any 90/98 buckets. This packet does not publish that statewide sum. $7.6B stays on District 04.

Do 16,158 awards equal unique Arkansas vendors?

No. 16,158 is an award-action count. One recipient can appear many times through modifications or multiple awards. The packet does not include a unique-vendor total, so this guide does not invent one. Keep 16,158 labeled as FY2024 record volume next to $7.6B.

Does $7.6B include later fiscal years?

No. First year and last year are both 2024. $7.6B is the FY2024 place-of-performance obligation total. Do not stack FY2025 or a calendar year onto $7,630,161,345.60. 16,158 awards match that same FY2024 window on AR-04.
