FY2024 federal obligations in Maryland’s 4th district

Place of performance in Maryland’s 4th congressional district accounts for $30.2 billion in FY2024 federal obligations on USAspending.gov. SpendingVault reports that amount as obligations, not outlays. 46,983 awards carry the MD-04 performance code — a large record count next to the dollar total. The Maryland District 04 hub holds the indexed rows. Maryland District 04 is not MD-02, MD-03, MD-05, or MD-08. Keep $30.2 billion and 46,983 awards on the 4th district’s FY2024 place-of-performance obligation page, as two columns rather than a ratio.

Key figures

  • FY2024 place-of-performance obligations in Maryland District 04 total $30.2 billion.
  • 46,983 awards share the MD-04 tag in that extract.
  • District geography is performance location, not HQ.
  • MD-04 is a mapped House district, not a 90/98 bucket.
  • Cite $30.2 billion as obligations, not outlays.

The $30.2 billion FY2024 roll-up

$30.2 billion is the obligation total USAspending.gov attaches to Maryland District 04 for fiscal year 2024. The figure is a sum of award commitments, not cash already paid and not Maryland’s state budget. This page does not translate $30.2 billion into outlays. Maryland District 04’s $30.2 billion is the FY2024 obligation file for that mapped seat. The 46,983-award count is a separate column, not a ratio. This is not MD-02, MD-03, MD-05, or MD-08.

The packet’s year window is FY2024 only. First year and last year are both 2024. Federal fiscal years start October 1. USAspending.gov can still correct records, which would move $30.2 billion and the 46,983-award count. This hub is a different slice from Maryland Districts 02, 03, 05, and 08. The year window is FY2024 only. A calendar-year overlay would be a different cut. Keep 46,983 awards with $30.2 billion in the same fiscal citation.

MD-04 place of performance versus HQ

Congressional district here is the USAspending place-of-performance field. A Prince George’s County or surrounding performance site can appear even when the recipient’s headquarters sits in another Maryland district, the District of Columbia, or another state. A firm with a MD-04 mailing address can also post dollars elsewhere if performance is coded there. Place of performance, not a Prince George’s mailing address, fills the 46,983-row table. Headquarters in D.C. or another Maryland district can still appear if the work is coded MD-04.

District 04 is a numbered House seat. Maryland rows that never received a voting-district number sit in district 90 (unspecified) or 98 (non-voting). Those buckets are not this MD-04 table. MD-04 is a numbered House seat. Residual unmapped Maryland performance stays off this hub. The $30.2 billion total is the mapped 4th district only.

46,983 awards in the District 04 extract

46,983 is a FY2024 record count for MD-04 place of performance. The row volume is large beside the $30.2 billion obligation total. Modifications and assistance actions can each add a line. The packet does not publish unique recipients or an awarding-agency mix.

Do not compute a typical award from $30.2 billion and 46,983 rows. That quotient is not a packet fact. A high row count and a large dollar total remain two columns. Use the Maryland District 04 hub to read individual records.

46,983 rows make a large table. That volume still is not unique recipients. The Maryland District 04 hub is the table. $30.2 billion remains the FY2024 obligation roll-up, independent of the row count.

Obligations, not Treasury outlays

The $30.2 billion total is the obligation series. Outlays measure disbursements and can land in a later fiscal year. Mixing series makes MD-04 look inconsistent when the files are simply counting different events.

Recipient-location maps, calendar-year totals, and state budget documents are other products. Match geography, year, and series before treating a disagreement with $30.2 billion as an error.

Cite MD-04 as FY2024 USAspending.gov place-of-performance obligations of $30.2 billion on 46,983 awards. Do not divide the figures. Do not paste the total into an outlay column.

Maryland statewide and other districts

Maryland’s state hub is the statewide obligation view. MD-04 is one mapped place-of-performance district inside that state. Statewide Maryland is not equal to District 04.

The all-districts index lists other Maryland seats and unspecified buckets in the same format. Compare MD-04 only on FY2024 obligations. This packet does not rank the 4th district.

Maryland’s other mapped districts have their own hubs. Statewide Maryland is another page. This packet does not quote those other totals. Stay on MD-04 for the 4th district file.

Reading a large row count beside $30.2 billion

The 46,983-award count for MD-04 is FY2024 record volume, not a vendor census and not a quality score. SpendingVault indexes those rows next to $30.2 billion in obligations. Neither statistic explains the other, and District 04 remains a different extract from District 02 or District 08.

If a comparison already uses headquarters location or Treasury outlays, rebuild it on place of performance and federal FY2024 before placing $30.2 billion in the grid. The Maryland state hub and the all-districts index stay on obligations.

Questions

How much federal spending is in Maryland’s 4th district?
USAspending.gov shows $30.2 billion in FY2024 obligations with place of performance in Maryland District 04. That is not an outlay total and not Maryland’s state budget. The same extract counts 46,983 awards for MD-04. The packet year range is FY2024 only.
Does MD-04 spending mean the contractor is based there?
No. The district is USAspending place of performance, not recipient headquarters. Work coded to Maryland’s 4th district can belong to a recipient based in another district or another state. A MD-04 mailing address does not force every dollar onto this hub.
Are Maryland District 04’s $30.2 billion outlays?
No. $30.2 billion is an obligation sum from FY2024 award records. Outlays are cash leaving the Treasury. SpendingVault does not convert MD-04 obligations into outlays. Keep the obligation label and the FY2024 window when the figure is reused. Keep Maryland District 04 on FY2024 obligations; do not divide $30.2 billion by 46,983 awards or merge the hub with other Maryland seats.
How many awards are tagged to Maryland District 04?
46,983 awards appear for MD-04 place of performance in FY2024. That figure is a record count, including modifications, not a unique-recipient census. This packet does not divide $30.2 billion by 46,983 to invent an average. Keep Maryland District 04 on FY2024 obligations; do not divide $30.2 billion by 46,983 awards or merge the hub with other Maryland seats.

Congressional district is USAspending place-of-performance, not the recipient HQ. District 90/98 are USAspending unspecified/non-voting buckets.
