USAspending in Guam District 98 (unspecified)

What District 98 means for Guam

USAspending uses 90 and 98 as unspecified or non-voting congressional-district codes on place of performance. For Guam, 98 is that residual bin in this packet. FY2024 obligations in the bin totaled $11.9 billion. The award count is 9,709. Do not read GU-98 as “the 98th district of Guam.” The territory is not divided into 98 House seats in this dataset.

The code marks awards whose Guam performance location was not assigned to a standard numbered district field. District 90 is a related unspecified bucket used in states; this page is only the 98-code Guam file. Keep $11.9 billion in a column labeled unspecified or non-voting, not as a voting constituency total.

9,709 awards in the territorial residual

The 9,709 count is a FY2024 file that can mix assistance and contract actions and can include modifications. Unique vendors are not in the packet. Those records still sum to $11.9 billion in obligations. First year and last year are both 2024. The count is a single-fiscal-year stock, not a multi-year archive of every federal action in Guam.

Do not divide $11.9 billion by 9,709. That quotient is not a packet fact. Use the Guam District 98 hub to inspect lines. 9,709 is a record count, not a census of Guam firms. A mid-size territorial residual can still be concentrated; this packet has no size table.

Place of performance on Guam, not headquarters

Congressional district here is still place of performance. A mainland firm can appear in the $11.9 billion if USAspending codes the work to GU-98. A Guam-based recipient can be missing if performance is coded to a state district or another residual code. Headquarters maps of “Guam contractors” will not match this page.

The page answers which FY2024 obligations carry the GU-98 performance tag. A Guam mailing address is neither required nor enough to enter the 9,709 records. Only the place-of-performance code puts an award in this $11.9 billion FY2024 rollup.

Obligations, not outlays

The $11.9 billion is an obligation total. Obligations are legal commitments. Outlays are payments. Assistance awards common in territorial files can obligate in one year and disburse on a different schedule. The accurate FY2024 statement is that agencies obligated $11.9 billion on 9,709 awards with Guam District 98 place of performance.

It is not a cash-disbursement total for the island. SpendingVault does not recast GU-98 as Treasury outlays. Match series, fiscal year, and geography before treating a disagreement with $11.9 billion as an error. Federal FY2024 starts October 1; do not treat the figure as calendar-year 2024.

Guam jurisdiction page and the district index

The Guam District 98 hub is this residual table. The Guam jurisdiction page rolls place-of-performance activity at the territory level. Those two views can differ if other Guam district codes exist in USAspending. This packet only certifies the 98-code rollup of $11.9 billion on 9,709 awards.

The all-districts index lists other 90 and 98 buckets alongside numbered House districts in the states. Code 98 is a USAspending unspecified or non-voting bucket. Compare GU-98 only on FY2024 obligations. This packet does not rank Guam against states’ numbered seats.

Citing Guam District 98 without inventing 98 seats

Guam District 98 should be cited as $11.9 billion in FY2024 USAspending obligations on 9,709 awards with unspecified or non-voting code 98. That is not a map of 98 House seats and not a cash total for the island. Mainland vendors can appear; island vendors can be absent; place of performance decides.

Obligations are commitments. Outlays are not this district total. The facts start in 2024 and end in 2024. USAspending.gov is the source. Align comparisons to place of performance, federal FY2024, and obligations before placing $11.9 billion next to another geography column. A mainland headquarters can appear among the 9,709 awards if performance is coded GU-98; a Guam headquarters can be missing if it is not. Code 98 remains an unspecified or non-voting bucket. Guam District 98 is a USAspending unspecified or non-voting bucket, not a map of 98 House seats: $11.9 billion on 9,709 awards. $11.9 billion stays the FY2024 obligation roll-up for that residual geography, not a cash total for the island and not a map of 98 House seats.

Questions

How much did USAspending record for Guam District 98 in FY2024?

USAspending.gov shows $11.9 billion in FY2024 obligations for Guam District 98 place of performance, across 9,709 awards. Code 98 is an unspecified or non-voting bucket. The figures are obligations, not outlays, and cover FY2024 only. Treat GU-98 as a residual USAspending geography code, not as a constituency voters elect.

Is District 98 Guam’s congressional district?

It is a USAspending unspecified or non-voting place-of-performance code, not a map of 98 House seats. Codes 90 and 98 mark residual geography in the award data. The $11.9 billion total belongs to that GU-98 bucket. 9,709 awards share the leftover tag. Guam’s delegate is a separate political fact from this data code.

Are these outlays to Guam?

No. They are obligations totaling $11.9 billion in FY2024 on 9,709 awards. Outlays are actual payments and are not the district total on this SpendingVault page. USAspending district totals here are obligations, so $11.9 billion is a commitment stock, not a disbursement total for Guam.

If a company is based in Guam, is the award here?

Only if place of performance is coded GU-98. A Guam headquarters is not the district field. Work coded to a state or another district code will not sit in this $11.9 billion total. A Guam office address is neither required nor enough to enter the 9,709 records.
