Conservation and Rehabilitation of Natural Resources on Military Installations — CFDA 12.005

Installation conservation obligations at $626.2M

USAspending.gov records $626,171,459.76 in obligations under CFDA 12.005. Two hundred eighty-four awards produce that stock. A simple average is about $2.20 million per award. That average is a quotient of two packet totals, not a typical habitat-restoration invoice and not a cost per acre.

The assistance-listing title is CONSERVATION AND REHABILITATION OF NATURAL RESOURCES ON MILITARY INSTALLATIONS. CFDA 12.005 is the identifier. Other Defense environmental, Sikes Act, or civilian Interior listings tagged under different CFDA numbers are not mixed into the $626.2M. Combining those codes would invent a combined conservation total this packet does not contain.

72 recipients and 284 award rows

Seventy-two recipients share 284 awards, or about 3.9 award records per recipient on average. Splitting $626,171,459.76 evenly would assign about $8.70 million per recipient. That density is a cooperative-agreement pattern: universities, states, and other named organizations carrying several assistance rows on installation work. The packet does not list the 72. Recipient count is the organizational headcount on the federal extract, not a census of bases or biologists.

Thirty-two states in the geographic count is a partial map. Conservation dollars follow installation geography as coded, not a 50-state equal share. Place-of-performance amounts are on the program table.

Award rows are not an acreage census

Among Defense environmental listings, 12.005 is a mid-row cooperative file: 284 awards against 72 recipients. Award count is a weak proxy for “number of habitat projects” and a worse proxy for acres restored. Recipients (72) tell you how many named organizations sit on the extract; awards (284) tell you how many assistance rows were stored.

The packet does not report acres, listed species, or training-land hours. Citing 284 as installations would be a unit error. Keep the units straight: dollars, awards, recipients, states.

Obligations versus conservation outlays

The $626.2M is an obligation total from USAspending.gov. Outlays — cash paid against installation natural-resource awards — are not in the packet. A cooperative file can show a large obligation stock while reimbursements 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 12.005 to size this Conservation and Rehabilitation of Natural Resources on Military Installations listing in the assistance file. Do not use it as a MILCON, BRAC, or USFWS refuge dashboard. Those series live elsewhere. This page reports the obligation book tagged 12.005.

What the 12.005 tables omit

The program hub lists award-backed obligations from USAspending.gov. It is not a species inventory, not an installation directory, and not a training-land log. Series that never appear as assistance awards will not show up in the $626,171,459.76. That omission is definitional rather than a gap in the 284 award rows.

Place-of-performance on 32 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 cooperators.

Installation natural-resource work’s 32-state map and 72-recipient headcount together describe a cooperative-conservation book tied to military lands. A researcher comparing 12.005 with Sikes Act or USFWS refuge codes should keep CFDA numbers separate. The $626.2M stock is the USAspending obligation book for this listing only.

Where the 12.005 table lives

The program page overlays these four facts. The all-programs index ranks 12.005 among other assistance listings. Agency pages show awarding-agency rollups that may include this CFDA among other Defense listings. For 12.005 only, start on the program page.

CFDA 12.005’s 284 awards spread $626,171,459.76 across 72 recipients and 32 states. Quote award count as a record count, recipient count as the organizational headcount, and dollars as obligations from USAspending.gov. About 3.9 award records per recipient is the density story on this listing. Outlays remain a separate column. Source: USAspending.gov assistance awards.

Acres restored, listed species, and training-land hours live in other Defense or Interior series. Those rows are outside $626,171,459.76 unless they share CFDA 12.005. Quote 284 as assistance records, 72 as organizational payees, and 32 as the geographic count.

Questions

How much is obligated for conservation on military installations?

USAspending.gov records $626.2M in obligations for CFDA 12.005. SpendingVault indexes 284 awards, 72 recipients, and 32 states. The figure is an obligation sum from assistance awards, not an outlay and not an acreage count. CFDA 12.005’s $626,171,459.76 is the USAspending obligation stock.

How many awards does CFDA 12.005 carry?

The listing shows 284 awards against 72 recipients, or about 3.9 award records per recipient. A simple average is about $2.20 million per award. Award count is not a count of installations or acres. Recipient dollars are on the program page.

How many organizations receive 12.005 awards?

The extract lists 72 recipients. Those are organizational recipients on assistance awards tagged 12.005, not a census of bases or biologists. Geographic coding covers 32 states. The packet does not name the 72 or publish an acreage inventory. Keep dollars, awards, recipients, and geography as separate units on the USAspending extract.

Is $626.2M already paid for installation conservation?

Not necessarily. Obligations are commitments. Outlays are payments. CFDA 12.005’s indexed total is the obligation stock from USAspending.gov. This page does not report cash drawn, remaining balances, or acres restored. The $626,171,459.76 on 284 awards is the obligation figure. Keep dollars, awards, recipients, and geography as separate units on the USAspending extract.
