Inflation Reduction Act Forest Legacy Program — CFDA 10.734

IRA Forest Legacy obligations at $657.8M

USAspending.gov records $657,774,099.17 in obligations under CFDA 10.734. One hundred twenty-three awards produce that stock. A simple average is about $5.35 million per award. That average is a quotient of two packet totals, not a typical easement invoice and not a cost per acre.

The assistance-listing title is INFLATION REDUCTION ACT - FOREST LEGACY PROGRAM. CFDA 10.734 is the identifier. Other USDA Forest Service or conservation listings tagged under different CFDA numbers — including non-IRA Forest Legacy codes — are not mixed into the $657.8M. Combining those codes would invent a combined forest-conservation total this packet does not contain.

49 recipients and 123 award rows

Forty-nine recipients share 123 awards, or about 2.5 award records per recipient on average. Splitting $657,774,099.17 evenly would assign about $13.42 million per recipient. That density is a state-forestry-grantee pattern: a headcount near the number of participating states, each carrying a few assistance rows. The packet does not list the 49. Recipient count is the organizational headcount on the federal extract, not a census of landowners or acres.

Forty-one states in the geographic count is a broad conservation map. Forest Legacy dollars follow project geography as coded, not equal shares. Place-of-performance amounts are on the program table.

Award rows are not an acreage census

Among USDA forestry listings, 10.734 is a mid-row conservation file: 123 awards against 49 recipients. Award count is a weak proxy for “number of easements” and a worse proxy for acres conserved. Recipients (49) tell you how many named organizations sit on the extract; awards (123) tell you how many assistance rows were stored.

The packet does not report acres, board-feet, or carbon stocks. Citing 123 as parcels would be a unit error. Keep the units straight: dollars, awards, recipients, states.

Obligations versus Forest Legacy outlays

The $657.8M is an obligation total from USAspending.gov. Outlays — cash paid against IRA Forest Legacy awards — are not in the packet. A conservation file can show a large obligation stock while closings follow a later calendar. Deobligations and upward adjustments both move the total. A remaining-balance question is an outlay question this extract does not answer.

Use CFDA 10.734 to size this Inflation Reduction Act Forest Legacy Program listing in the assistance file. Do not use it as a timber-sale, fire-suppression, or non-IRA Forest Legacy dashboard. Those series live elsewhere. This page reports the obligation book tagged 10.734.

What the 10.734 tables omit

The program hub lists award-backed obligations from USAspending.gov. It is not an easement inventory, not a landowner directory, and not a carbon ledger. Series that never appear as assistance awards will not show up in the $657,774,099.17. That omission is definitional rather than a gap in the 123 award rows.

Place-of-performance on 41 states is a coding field. Read the program page before treating those cells as equal shares. Recipient dollars, if shown on the hub, are still obligation amounts, not cash already paid to grantees.

IRA Forest Legacy’s 41-state map and 49-recipient headcount together describe a conservation-grant book, not a timber-sale ledger. A researcher comparing 10.734 with non-IRA Forest Legacy or fire-suppression codes should keep CFDA numbers separate. The $657.8M stock is the USAspending obligation book for this listing only.

Where the 10.734 table lives

The program page overlays these four facts. The all-programs index ranks 10.734 among other assistance listings. Agency pages show awarding-agency rollups that may include this CFDA among other USDA listings. For 10.734 only, start on the program page.

CFDA 10.734’s 123 awards spread $657,774,099.17 across 49 recipients and 41 states. Quote award count as a record count, recipient count as the organizational headcount, and dollars as obligations from USAspending.gov. About 2.5 award records per recipient is the density story on this listing. Outlays remain a separate column. Source: USAspending.gov assistance awards.

Acres, easements, and carbon stocks live in other USDA forestry series. Those rows are outside $657,774,099.17 unless they share CFDA 10.734. Quote 123 as assistance records, 49 as organizational payees, and 41 as the geographic count.
