Airport Improvement and Related Airport Programs — CFDA 20.106

5,526 awards under $12.13 billion

Assistance listing 20.106 is titled AIRPORT IMPROVEMENT PROGRAM, INFRASTRUCTURE INVESTMENT AND JOBS ACT PROGRAMS, AND COVID-19 AIRPORTS PROGRAMS in the USAspending.gov files this site indexes. The obligation total on that code is $12,127,682,384.19. An obligation is a recorded federal commitment on an award. It is not a construction invoice already paid.

5,526 awards sit under that dollar book. Dividing $12,127,682,384.19 by 5,526 produces a mean near $2.19 million per award record. That quotient is derived from the two packet totals. It is not a typical ticket tax and not a per-passenger capital cost. Many airport-sponsor actions can add to $12,127,682,384.19 without any single row matching a national hub reconstruction.

1,727 organizational recipients appear on those rows. 59 states are coded for place of performance—the widest geographic field in this packet set. Neither count converts the obligation total into projects completed.

1,727 recipients across 59 states

CFDA 20.106 lists 1,727 recipients against 5,526 awards. Recipient count is not unique passengers. It is how many organizational recipients the assistance extract stores. One airport sponsor can hold several awards; 1,727 is a wide organizational spread for a $12,127,682,384.19 book.

Fifty-nine states is a coded-jurisdiction span, including territories if they appear in the file’s state field. Extra modifications can lift the 5,526-award count while dollars stay near $12,127,682,384.19. The airport hub keeps dollars, awards, recipients, and states visible so one statistic is not inferred from another.

Obligations versus airport outlays

USAspending.gov publishes obligations on assistance awards. The $12,127,682,384.19 figure for CFDA 20.106 can include commitments that will disburse as projects advance. A separate passenger-enplanement table or a Treasury outlay table is a different publication. This page does not translate the obligation total into those series.

If a number you expected is missing, the usual cause is a different reporting concept. Start from the obligation definition, then open the 20.106 program page. Do not stretch 5,526 awards to cover every airport dollar tagged under another listing.

What the 20.106 tables omit

The airport-improvement hub lists award-backed obligations from USAspending.gov. It is not a project schedule, not a runway inventory, and not a COVID-relief payroll file. The listing title groups several airport assistance labels; the extract still reports one obligation total of $12,127,682,384.19. Series that never appear as assistance awards will not show up in that sum.

Place-of-performance on 59 states is a coding field. A sponsor coded to one cell can dominate geography while an airport serves a multi-state catchment. Read the program page before any state split.

How to cite CFDA 20.106

A worked reading of the 20.106 extract

Start from the four packet facts on CFDA 20.106: $12,127,682,384.19 in obligations, 5,526 awards, 1,727 recipients, and 59 states. The mean near $2.19 million per award is a quotient from those two packet totals, not a typical unit cost and not a household or client rate. If a later USAspending.gov file adds a few large actions, dollars can jump while 1,727 recipients barely move. If modifications proliferate, 5,526 can rise while the dollar book stays close to $12,127,682,384.19.

Nothing in the extract splits AIRPORT IMPROVEMENT PROGRAM, INFRASTRUCTURE INVESTMENT AND JOBS ACT PROGRAMS, AND COVID-19 AIRPORTS PROGRAMS into subaccounts, fiscal years, or outlay versus obligation series beyond the stored totals. Those cuts live in other publications. Treat CFDA 20.106 as an assistance-listing tag on USAspending.gov award files. Open the program page, then the all-programs index, for a same-series ranking. Cite 5,526 awards and 1,727 recipients next to the dollars so the record count is visible beside $12,127,682,384.19. Name the series as obligations, not outlays, every time the figure is reused. Agency pages show awarding organizations; they do not replace this listing’s obligation total.

A complete working citation for this listing is $12,127,682,384.19 in USAspending.gov obligations for CFDA 20.106, covering 5,526 awards, 1,727 recipients, and 59 states, indexed on SpendingVault. Do not convert 5,526 awards into runways rebuilt, or 59 states into a passenger map. The 59-state field is place-of-performance coding in the assistance extract. Read the AIRPORT IMPROVEMENT PROGRAM, INFRASTRUCTURE INVESTMENT AND JOBS ACT PROGRAMS, AND COVID-19 AIRPORTS PROGRAMS hub before inferring a geographic story from the dollar total alone. If a number you expected is missing from $12,127,682,384.19, the usual cause is a different reporting concept rather than a gap in the 5,526 award rows.
