Department of Energy in Alaska

What the Energy–Alaska join is

Department of Energy as awarding agency, Alaska as place-of-performance: 227 records summing to $852,561,103.12. A Department of Energy award coded outside AK is out. An award in Alaska from a different awarding agency is out even if the topic sounds related. Alaska (AK) excludes Washington. A Seattle-coded award is Washington even if the supply-chain story sounds similar.

Two hundred twenty-seven awards sit behind $852,561,103.12. That row count can mix large instruments with smaller modifications. Unique recipients are unpublished. Do not read 227 as 227 unique oil fields, unique laboratories, or pipeline segments. The overlay Department of Energy in Alaska is the both-keys table. Alaska federal spending is the all-agency state hub. Department of Energy is the agency book without an AK filter. All spending ties lists other joins.

Anchorage, Fairbanks, and Juneau share one AK stamp. DOE program offices can share awarding-agency 089 without a published laboratory pie. Correlation is not causation: Alaska did not cause $852,561,103.12 by existing as a large or small place. Population and outcome scores are not packet facts. The join is 089 × AK only.

227 actions are not 227 oil fields

$852,561,103.12 does not measure oil fields, unique laboratories, or pipeline segments. Those series are not USAspending fields on this aggregate. The cell sums award obligations with awarding-agency code 089 and an AK place-of-performance tag.

Do not treat 227 awards as a census of oil fields, unique laboratories, or pipeline segments. Parent hubs are supposed to be larger than this pair. If Alaska federal spending or Department of Energy matched $852,561,103.12 and 227, the join would be pointless. Use the overlay when both keys must stay on. Neighbor-state Energy joins are other pairs, not addends. Dividing $852,561,103.12 by 227 yields about $3,755,775.78 per award on average. That average hides contracts, grants, and other instruments. It is not a typical Energy line and not a published median.

Questions

How much has the Department of Energy obligated in Alaska?

USAspending.gov records $852,561,103.12 across 227 awards with awarding agency 089 and a Alaska tag. That is an obligation join, not an outlay and not a count of oil fields, unique laboratories, or pipeline segments. Department of Energy in Alaska is the live overlay for this pair. Keep both keys when quoting $852,561,103.12.

Is $852,561,103.12 a measure of oil fields?

No. The packet publishes $852,561,103.12 and 227 awards for agency 089 inside AK coding. Those other series are unpublished here. Unique recipients are unpublished. Quote the dollar total and the award count together. Obligations are not outlays. The implied mean is about $3,755,775.78, a ratio of two packet facts.

Is this a Anchorage-only Energy total?

No. $852,561,103.12 and 227 awards are statewide Alaska place of performance. Anchorage, Fairbanks, and Juneau share one AK stamp. This packet does not publish a city split. A regional cut would be a different extract. Original filings remain on the source sites.

Where is the live Energy–Alaska table?

Department of Energy in Alaska is the overlay. Alaska federal spending and Department of Energy are the parents, not addends. All spending ties lists other pairs. Keep both sides of the join when citing $852,561,103.12. USAspending.gov is the source. Obligations are not outlays.
