Weapons Removal and Abatement — CFDA 19.800

$1,123,969,896.56 in federal obligations is indexed on USAspending.gov for Weapons Removal and Abatement (CFDA 19.800). The listing carries 208 awards, 35 recipients, and a 0-jurisdiction geographic count.

Two hundred eight awards against 35 named organizations with no US state coding is an overseas-implementer file: few partners, large tickets, empty domestic geography on the extract.

Weapons-removal obligations at $1.12 billion

USAspending.gov records $1,123,969,896.56 in obligations under CFDA 19.800. Two hundred eight awards produce that stock. A simple average is about $5,403,701 per award. That average is a quotient of two packet totals, not a typical clearance-task order and not a cost per hectare. The $1,123,969,896.56 figure is an obligation sum from the assistance extract, not an outlay.

The assistance-listing title is WEAPONS REMOVAL AND ABATEMENT. CFDA 19.800 is the identifier. Other conventional-weapons or foreign-assistance listings tagged under different CFDA numbers are not mixed into the $1.12 billion. Combining those codes would invent a combined total this packet does not contain. Keep 19.800 separate on the programs index.

35 recipients and a zero geographic count

Thirty-five recipients share 208 awards, or about 5.9 award records per recipient on average. Splitting $1,123,969,896.56 evenly would assign about $32.11 million per recipient. That density is an implementing-partner pattern: a small organizational headcount carrying several multi-year assistance rows. The packet does not list the 35. Recipient count is not a census of demining teams, countries, or items destroyed.

Zero jurisdictions in the geographic count means the USAspending state field was not populated with US states or territories for this listing. Weapons-removal work is often coded to foreign places of performance that do not increment the domestic state count. Do not read 0 as “no activity.” Place-of-performance detail, if any, is on the program table.

Empty state coding is not a zero-activity map

Among foreign-assistance listings, 19.800 is an overseas-implementer file with empty domestic geography: 208 rows against 35 recipients. Award count is a weak proxy for “number of mines cleared” and a worse proxy for hectares released. Recipients (35) tell you how many named organizations sit on the extract; awards (208) tell you how many assistance rows were stored.

The packet does not report weapons destroyed, casualties avoided, or countries of operation. Citing 208 as clearance sites or 0 as proof the program is inactive would be a unit error. Keep the units straight: dollars, awards, recipients, jurisdictions. The $1,123,969,896.56 stock is the obligation book only.

Obligations versus weapons-removal outlays

The $1,123,969,896.56 is an obligation total from USAspending.gov. Outlays — cash paid against Weapons Removal and Abatement awards — are not in the packet. An overseas clearance file can show a large obligation stock while field draws 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.

What the 19.800 tables omit

The program hub lists award-backed obligations from USAspending.gov. It is not a clearance log, not a country directory, and not a weapons inventory. Series that never appear as assistance awards will not show up in the $1,123,969,896.56. That omission is definitional rather than a gap in the 208 award rows.

The geographic count is 0. That is a coding result on the USAspending state field, not a statement that weapons-removal awards have no place of performance. Recipient dollars, if shown on the hub, are still obligation amounts, not cash already paid. A researcher comparing 19.800 with other conventional-weapons or foreign-assistance codes should keep CFDA numbers separate. Weapons Removal and Abatement is a 208-row, 35-organization book with 0 coded US jurisdictions. Read the $1,123,969,896.56 as the USAspending obligation stock for CFDA 19.800 only.
