Garrison Diversion Unit — CFDA 15.518

Garrison Diversion obligations at $619.7M

USAspending.gov records $619,651,291.16 in obligations under CFDA 15.518. Twenty-three awards produce that stock. A simple average is about $26.94 million per award. That average is a quotient of two packet totals, not a typical water-project invoice and not a cost per acre-foot.

The assistance-listing title is GARRISON DIVERSION UNIT. CFDA 15.518 is the identifier. Other Bureau of Reclamation, rural-water, or Interior listings tagged under different CFDA numbers are not mixed into the $619.7M. Combining those codes would invent a combined water-infrastructure total this packet does not contain.

9 recipients, 23 awards, and 1 state

Nine recipients share 23 awards, or about 2.6 award records per recipient on average. Splitting $619,651,291.16 evenly would assign about $68.85 million per recipient. That density is a project-authority fingerprint: a handful of named organizations carrying large assistance rows on one unit. The packet does not list the 9. Recipient count is the organizational headcount on the federal extract, not a census of irrigators or municipalities.

One state in the geographic count is the entire map on this extract. Garrison Diversion dollars follow that coded geography, not a national water-project share. Place-of-performance amounts are on the program table.

A one-state file is not an acre-foot census

Among Interior water listings, 15.518 is a low-row, place-specific file: 23 awards against 9 recipients in 1 state. Award count is a weak proxy for “number of water projects” and a worse proxy for acre-feet delivered. Recipients (9) tell you how many named organizations sit on the extract; awards (23) tell you how many assistance rows were stored.

The packet does not report canal miles, reservoir storage, or irrigators. Citing 23 as water users would be a unit error. Keep the units straight: dollars, awards, recipients, states. Twenty-three awards at about $26.94 million each is a single-unit Reclamation book, not a national water formula.

Obligations versus Garrison outlays

The $619.7M is an obligation total from USAspending.gov. Outlays — cash paid against Garrison Diversion Unit awards — are not in the packet. A construction file can show a large obligation stock while draws follow a multi-year calendar. Deobligations and upward adjustments both move the total. A remaining-balance question is an outlay question this extract does not answer.

Use CFDA 15.518 to size this Garrison Diversion Unit listing in the assistance file. Do not use it as a Pick-Sloan, rural-water, or general Reclamation dashboard. Those series live elsewhere. This page reports the obligation book tagged 15.518.

What the 15.518 tables omit

The program hub lists award-backed obligations from USAspending.gov. It is not a water-rights docket, not an irrigator directory, and not a reservoir log. Series that never appear as assistance awards will not show up in the $619,651,291.16. That omission is definitional rather than a gap in the 23 award rows.

Place-of-performance on 1 state is a coding field. Read the program page before treating that cell as a national water total. Recipient dollars, if shown on the hub, are still obligation amounts, not cash already paid to project authorities.

Garrison Diversion’s 1-state map and 9-recipient headcount together describe a place-specific Reclamation book, not a national water-project formula. A researcher comparing 15.518 with Pick-Sloan or rural-water codes should keep CFDA numbers separate. The $619.7M stock is the USAspending obligation book for this listing only.

Where the 15.518 table lives

The program page overlays these four facts. The all-programs index ranks 15.518 among other assistance listings. Agency pages show awarding-agency rollups that may include this CFDA among other Interior listings. For 15.518 only, start on the program page.

CFDA 15.518’s 23 awards spread $619,651,291.16 across 9 recipients and 1 state. Quote award count as a record count, recipient count as the organizational headcount, and dollars as obligations from USAspending.gov. About 2.6 award records per recipient is the density story on this listing. Outlays remain a separate column. Source: USAspending.gov assistance awards.

Acre-feet, canal miles, and irrigators live in other Interior water series. Those rows are outside $619,651,291.16 unless they share CFDA 15.518. Quote 23 as assistance records, 9 as organizational payees, and 1 as the geographic count.

Why does Garrison Diversion show only 1 state?

The extract lists a geographic count of 1. This listing is a place-specific Reclamation unit, not a nationwide water formula. Nine recipients still sit on 23 assistance rows.

Not necessarily. Obligations are commitments. Outlays are payments. CFDA 15.518’s indexed total is the obligation stock from USAspending.gov.
