Nonferrous Metal (Except Aluminum) Smelting and Refining

The FY2026 filter on Nonferrous Smelting (ex Al)

NAICS 331410 and fiscal year 2026 meet here. $555,571,273.27 is the USAspending.gov obligation sum on the yearlyTrend row that carries both tags. It is not Nonferrous Metal (Except Aluminum) Smelting And Refining's nationwide all-year total of $3,158,134,361.94, not every federal dollar coded to FY2026, and not an outlay register. The packet does not split smelting from refining, or add aluminum back into the excepted code. 810 is an industry-extract action count: modifications and repeat awards add rows across years. Unique recipients are unpublished. This cell is not a smelter census, a tonnage ledger, or a named-plant roster.

Open /industries/331410/ (NAICS 331410) for the industry table without this FY2026 filter, /fiscal-years/2026/ (FY2026 federal spending) for the year table without this NAICS filter, /industries/ (All industries) for every industry, and /ties/ (All spending ties) for the rest of the join list. Quote those hubs as parents, not as addends to $555,571,273.27. 331410 is not rolling-drawing-extruding except copper and aluminum (331491) on FY2025. Different processes, different years.

The nonferrous metal (except aluminum) smelting and refining rollup versus one fiscal year

USAspending labels NAICS 331410 as Nonferrous Metal (Except Aluminum) Smelting And Refining. That code produced $555,571,273.27 when crossed with fiscal year 2026. The industry-wide 331410 hub does not require a FY2026 filter. The year hub does not require Nonferrous Smelting (ex Al). Only this tie applies both filters. The packet does not split smelting from refining, or add aluminum back into the excepted code. Smelting versus refining stays inside one NAICS. This page will not invent that process pie.

Correlation is not causation: FY2026 did not cause $555,571,273.27 by existing as a large or small budget year. The join is 331410 × FY2026 only. This cell is not a smelter census, a tonnage ledger, or a named-plant roster. Do not invent contractors or award recipients to fill the gap. Campaign donations on FEC tables do not fund this USAspending cell; the datasets are separate. Eight hundred ten industry-extract awards belong to 331410 across years, not to FY2026 as a smelter census.

Questions

How much Nonferrous Smelting (ex Al) spending is obligated in FY2026?

USAspending.gov lists $555,571,273.27 in Nonferrous Metal (Except Aluminum) Smelting And Refining (NAICS 331410) obligations for FY2026. That yearlyTrend amount is 17.6% of the industry's $3,158,134,361.94 extract-wide total. It is an obligation join, not an outlay and not every federal dollar in FY2026. Unique recipients are unpublished.

Is $555,571,273.27 the entire Nonferrous Smelting (ex Al) USAspending total?

No. NAICS 331410's extract-wide total is $3,158,134,361.94. FY2026 is 17.6% of that book. Other fiscal-year rows for the same industry are separate cells. Do not add /industries/331410/ into this join. 810 award records stay on the industry extract, not on this yearlyTrend row.

Is $555,571,273.27 cash already paid in FY2026?

No. Obligations are commitments recorded on USAspending.gov awards. Outlays — money that actually left the Treasury — are a different concept and are not this packet's headline. Treating $555,571,273.27 as checks already cleared in FY2026 confuses those terms. Prefer the live industry and year hubs if the tables moved.

Why not divide $555,571,273.27 by 810 awards?

Because 810 is the industry-extract award-record count across years, not a FY2026-only census. Mixing that denominator with a one-year dollar total invents a typical invoice the packet does not publish. Recipients remain unpublished. USAspending.gov remains the source for NAICS 331410 in FY2026.
