CFDA 47.050 — federal program obligations to Delaware
Total obligated
$51.2M
Awards
47
USAspending.gov records $46,631,461 in Geosciences obligations under CFDA 47.050 with place of performance in Delaware, spread across 42 awards. That figure is an obligation sum for one Catalog of Federal Domestic Assistance number inside one state, not an outlay ledger and not Delaware’s full federal footprint. Forty-two awards against a mid-eight-figure earth-science cell is a research-assistance file, not a census of Delaware observatories or coastal stations. The pair is a join: program 47.050 and state DE.
Key figures
- Geosciences CFDA 47.050 shows $46,631,461 in Delaware place-of-performance obligations on 42 awards.
- Mean obligation is about $1,110,272.88 per award.
- The figure is a two-key USAspending join, not Delaware’s full federal total and not a census of laboratories, field sites, or earth-science investigators.
- Obligations are not outlays; FEC filings do not fund this cell.
- Delaware is a place-of-performance tag (state DE), not a unit census.
What this Geosciences–Delaware join is
Geosciences and Delaware meet on this page. $46,631,461 is the obligation sum on records that carry both keys. The Delaware spending hub totals every CFDA in the state. The national Geosciences hub totals every state for 47.050. This page is the overlap, not a ranking of programs and not a claim that Delaware caused the awards. USAspending.gov is the source table. Obligations are commitments recorded on the award file, not outlays that have already left the Treasury.
42 awards against $46,631,461 yields about $1,110,272.88 per award if the sum were divided evenly. That mean is arithmetic, not a typical instrument and not a median. Correlation between a catalog code and a Delaware place-of-performance tag is not causation. FEC donations do not fund this USAspending cell. Campaign-finance tables and federal award tables remain separate datasets even when they share a geography label.
CFDA 47.050, not every Delaware science dollar
The catalog number is 47.050. Official title: GEOSCIENCES. Other science catalog numbers that do not carry CFDA 47.050 would invent a combined total this packet never computed. Packet facts on the program side stop at the name Geosciences, the number 47.050, $46,631,461, and 42 awards. This packet lists no award recipients and no contractor names. Geosciences as a catalog title describes the assistance type on the award file. It does not prove how each dollar was used on the ground.
Forty-two awards against a mid-eight-figure earth-science cell is a research-assistance file, not a census of Delaware observatories or coastal stations. Place of performance can sit on a statewide stamp that only says Delaware. Newark, Dover, or Wilmington folklore may send a reader here; those stories are not a metro split in this packet. The nationwide CFDA 47.050 page includes other geographies, so it is not this cell.

- USAspending.gov records $46,631,461 in obligations for CFDA 47.050 with Delaware place of performance, covering 42 awards. That is an obligation aggregate for this pair, not outlays and not a census of laboratories, field sites, or earth-science investigators. Keep Geosciences and Delaware together when citing $46,631,461.
- What is the average Geosciences award in Delaware?
- Dividing $46,631,461 by 42 awards produces about $1,110,272.88 per award. That mean is not a median and not a typical single instrument. 42 remains a USAspending award-record count, not 42 laboratories, field sites, or earth-science investigators. Unique recipients are unpublished.
- Is this all federal spending in Delaware?
- No. Only CFDA 47.050 (Geosciences) is in this cell. Other programs appear on the Delaware programs index and on other state–program ties. Nationwide 47.050 is not limited to Delaware. Mixing other science catalog numbers that do not carry CFDA 47.050 would invent a larger total.
- Where is the live 47.050 × DE table?
- Geosciences in Delaware is the overlay at /states/de/programs/47.050/. CFDA 47.050 is /programs/47.050/. Delaware federal spending is /states/de/. Delaware programs is /states/de/programs/. All spending ties is /ties/. Original filings remain on USAspending.gov for this 47.050 × DE pair.
