Cooperative Fire Protection Agreement — CFDA 10.703

Fire-protection obligations at $3.30 billion

USAspending.gov records $3,303,742,887.28 in obligations under CFDA 10.703. Eight hundred five awards produce that stock. A simple average is about $4.10 million per award. That average is a quotient of two packet totals, not a typical wildfire-incident cost and not a per-acre suppression figure.

The assistance-listing title is COOPERATIVE FIRE PROTECTION AGREEMENT. CFDA 10.703 is the identifier. Other forestry and disaster listings tagged under other CFDA numbers are not mixed into the $3.30 billion. Combining those codes would invent a combined fire-protection total this packet does not contain.

621 recipients in 25 states

Six hundred twenty-one recipients share 805 awards, or about 1.3 award records per recipient on average. Splitting $3.30 billion evenly would assign about $5.3 million per recipient. That near one-to-one pattern matches a cooperative-agreement file in which many named state, local, and partner organizations each hold a small number of rows. The packet does not list the 621. Recipient count is the organizational headcount, not a census of firefighters or engines.

Twenty-five states in the geographic count show concentrated coding. Cooperative fire-protection dollars sit where named agreements are coded, not in every jurisdiction. The state count does not flatten those differences. Place-of-performance amounts are on the program table.

Award count is not a fire count

Among assistance listings, 10.703 is a wide-roster file: 805 rows against 621 recipients. Seasonal agreements and amendments can inflate award count relative to unique cooperators. Award count is therefore a weak proxy for “number of fires fought.” Recipients (621) tell you how many named organizations sit on the extract; awards (805) tell you how many assistance rows were stored.

The packet does not report acres burned, personnel days, or engine counts. Citing 805 as incidents would be a unit error. Keep the units straight: dollars, awards, recipients, states.

Obligations versus fire-protection outlays

The $3.30 billion is an obligation total from USAspending.gov. Outlays — cash paid against cooperative fire-protection awards — are not in the packet. A cooperator can show a large obligation stock while suppression work follows a fire-season calendar. Deobligations and upward adjustments both move the total. A remaining-balance question is an outlay question this extract does not answer.

Use CFDA 10.703 to size this cooperative fire-protection listing in the assistance file. Do not use it as an incident dashboard. Those series live elsewhere. This page reports the obligation book tagged 10.703.

What the 10.703 tables omit

The Cooperative Fire Protection Agreement hub lists award-backed obligations from USAspending.gov. It is not an incident log, not a firefighter roster, and not a ranking of fire seasons. Series that never appear as assistance awards will not show up in the $3,303,742,887.28. That omission is definitional rather than a gap in the 805 award rows.

Place-of-performance on 25 states is a coding field. A statewide cooperator coded to one cell can dominate geography while incidents sit in many counties. Read the program page before treating those cells as equal shares.

Where the 10.703 table lives

The program page overlays these four facts. The all-programs index ranks 10.703 among other assistance listings. Agency pages show awarding-agency rollups that may include this CFDA among other forestry listings. For 10.703 only, start on the program page.

CFDA 10.703’s 805 awards spread $3,303,742,887.28 across 621 recipients and 25 states. Quote award count as a record count, recipient count as the organizational headcount, and dollars as obligations from USAspending.gov. About 1.3 award records per recipient and a 25-state span are the structure story on this listing. Outlays remain a separate column. Source: USAspending.gov assistance awards.

CFDA 10.703 is indexed at $3,303,742,887.28 in obligations, 805 awards, 621 recipients, and 25 states on USAspending.gov. Cooperative Fire Protection Agreement should be cited on that CFDA row alone. The $3.30 billion figure sizes the listing in the assistance file. It does not convert obligations into outlays, and it does not convert award count into a service, patient, student, or project census.

Readers who need the overlay tables should start on the program page for CFDA 10.703, then rank the listing on the all-programs index. Agency pages show awarding-agency rollups that may include this CFDA among other listings; they do not replace the $3,303,742,887.28 obligation stock. Keep the four facts together when quoting Cooperative Fire Protection Agreement: dollars as obligations from USAspending.gov, award count as a stored-row count, recipient count as the organizational headcount (including 0 when the extract stores none), and the state figure as a geographic coding count.

Questions

How much is obligated for cooperative fire protection agreements?

USAspending.gov records $3,303,742,887.28 in obligations for CFDA 10.703. SpendingVault indexes 805 awards, 621 recipients, and 25 states. The figure is an obligation sum from assistance awards, not an outlay and not a fire count. CFDA 10.703’s $3.30 billion is the USAspending obligation stock.

How many awards does CFDA 10.703 carry?

The listing shows 805 awards against 621 recipients, or about 1.3 award records per recipient. A simple average is about $4.10 million per award. Award count is not an incident or acreage count. Recipient dollars are on the program page.

Why does CFDA 10.703 show only 25 states?

Geographic coding covers 25 states in this extract. Cooperative fire-protection dollars sit where named agreements are coded. The packet does not name the 25 jurisdictions or publish a dollar split. Treat 25 as a coverage flag, not as equal shares.

Is $3.30 billion already spent on fire protection?

Not necessarily. Obligations are commitments. Outlays are payments. CFDA 10.703’s indexed total is the obligation stock from USAspending.gov. This page does not report cash drawn, remaining balances, or fires suppressed. The $3.30 billion on 805 awards is the obligation figure.
