Colorado × 43.001 is the Science listing, not a lab census

This page pairs CFDA 43.001, SCIENCE, with Colorado place of performance. Science, as named on the catalog line, is the listing on one side of the join; Colorado (CO) is the geography tag on the other. SpendingVault sums tagged obligations: $437,934,861.81 on 777 awards. The extract does not list mission names, Boulder-versus-Denver shares, or a flight-versus-research split. Treat the pair as a catalog intersection, not a ranking of which state needs the program more, and not a claim that 777 awards equal that many Colorado labs. Colorado (CO) excludes Utah, Wyoming, New Mexico, Kansas, and Nebraska. Boulder lab folklore is not a published metro cut. Place of performance is CO statewide.

Other listings — other 43-series listings or HHS research CFDAs — sit outside $437,934,861.81 unless they also carry 43.001. Mixing Science with those rows would invent a combined figure the packet never computed. Correlation between this obligation sum and aerospace employment is not causation. Those statistics are not in the packet. Place of performance as Colorado locates the tagged awards; it does not deposit $437,934,861.81 in the state treasury, and it does not prove every dollar stayed inside Colorado after subawards. Boulder aerospace folklore is not a published cut of this extract.

777 awards behind the Colorado 43.001 total

Award count is a row count of assistance awards, including possible continuations and modifications. It is not a census of Colorado scientists, missions, or laboratories. a thick Science file: hundreds of award rows rather than a handful of capital postings. Mean obligation is about $563,623 if $437,934,861.81 were divided evenly across seven hundred seventy-seven lines — a mechanical ratio, not a typical payment published by the agency.

Seven hundred seventy-seven awards are actions and modifications, not 777 unique Colorado scientists. SNAP admin matching, supply-chain reimbursement, and Foster Care IV-E tagged to Colorado are other CFDAs. Do not add them into 43.001. Seven hundred Seventy-seven awards are scannable on the overlay. This page will not invent recipient names. Open Science in Colorado for the stored table. Do not convert 777 into a map of Colorado labs. The $437,934,861.81 total remains an obligation rollup on tagged awards.
