Pacific Coast Salmon Recovery Pacific Salmon Treaty Program — CFDA 11.438

Pacific salmon obligations at $738,223,675.94

USAspending.gov records $738,223,675.94 in obligations under CFDA 11.438. One hundred ninety-two awards produce that stock. A simple average is about $3,844,915 per award. That average is a quotient of two packet totals, not a typical restoration contract and not a cost per fish. Other NOAA fisheries listings tagged under different CFDA numbers are not mixed into the $738,223,675.94.

The assistance-listing title is PACIFIC COAST SALMON RECOVERY PACIFIC SALMON TREATY PROGRAM. CFDA 11.438 is the identifier. Combining 11.438 with broader Pacific Coastal Salmon Recovery Fund or hatchery codes would invent a combined salmon total this packet does not contain. Read the $738,223,675.94 as the obligation book tagged 11.438 only.

35 recipients in 5 jurisdictions

Thirty-five recipients share 192 awards, or about 5.5 award records per recipient on average. Splitting $738,223,675.94 evenly would assign about $21.1 million per recipient. That density is a Pacific-state and tribal-cooperator pattern: a small named-organization headcount carrying several assistance rows. The packet does not list the 35.

Five jurisdictions in the geographic count is the distinctive map. Pacific salmon recovery and treaty dollars follow the Pacific coast, not equal shares across the interior. Place-of-performance amounts are on the program table. Recipient count is organizational, not a census of tribes, hatcheries, or fishing permits.

Award rows are not a fish census

Among Commerce listings, 11.438 is a mid-row coastal file: 192 awards against 35 recipients. Award count is a weak proxy for “number of recovery projects” and a worse proxy for returning adults. Recipients (35) tell you how many named organizations sit on the extract; awards (192) tell you how many assistance rows were stored.

The packet does not report escapement, harvest, or barrier-removal miles. Citing 192 as fish would be a unit error. Keep the units straight: dollars, awards, recipients, jurisdictions. The $738,223,675.94 stock is the obligation figure from USAspending.gov.

Obligations versus salmon-recovery outlays

The $738,223,675.94 is an obligation total from USAspending.gov. Outlays — cash paid against Pacific Coast Salmon Recovery Pacific Salmon Treaty Program awards — are not in the packet. A recovery file can show a large obligation stock while construction and hatchery draws follow seasonal work. Deobligations and upward adjustments both move the total.

Use CFDA 11.438 to size this salmon listing in the assistance file. Do not use it as an escapement dashboard. Those series live elsewhere. This page reports the obligation book tagged 11.438.

What the 11.438 tables omit

The program hub lists award-backed obligations from USAspending.gov. It is not a run-size file, not a hatchery inventory, and not a treaty-harvest log. Series that never appear as assistance awards will not show up in the $738,223,675.94. That omission is definitional rather than a gap in the 192 award rows.

Place-of-performance on 5 jurisdictions is a coding field on a coastal extract. Read the program page before treating those 5 cells as a national fisheries map. Recipient dollars, if shown on the hub, are still obligation amounts, not cash already paid to Pacific cooperators.

Where the 11.438 table lives

The program page overlays these four facts. The all-programs index ranks 11.438 among other assistance listings. Agency pages show awarding-agency rollups that may include this CFDA among other Commerce listings. For 11.438 only, start on the program page.

CFDA 11.438’s 192 awards spread $738,223,675.94 across 35 recipients and 5 jurisdictions. Quote award count as a record count, recipient count as the organizational headcount, and dollars as obligations from USAspending.gov. About 5.5 award records per recipient is the density story. Outlays remain a separate column. Source: USAspending.gov assistance awards.

A researcher comparing 11.438 with other NOAA fisheries codes should keep CFDA numbers separate. The 35-recipient headcount on 5 jurisdictions is a Pacific-coast treaty-and-recovery map, not a 50-state fisheries formula. Quote $738,223,675.94 as the USAspending obligation stock for Pacific Coast Salmon Recovery Pacific Salmon Treaty Program only. About 5.5 award records per recipient is the density story on 192 awards. Escapement, harvest, and barrier-removal miles remain outside the packet. Outlays are a separate column.
