Federal Communications Commission in Georgia

FCC and Georgia as a coding pair

This page is a join of two USAspending.gov fields: awarding agency Federal Communications Commission (code 027) and place-of-performance Georgia. The extract sums to $1,403,296,334.10 on 5,317 awards. Those facts describe a coding intersection. They do not show that Federal Communications Commission spending caused Georgia outcomes, or that Georgia caused the federal award book.

The pair is not a Georgia broadband-availability ranking or a metro-Atlanta connectivity score. Correlation of an agency label with a state code is not causation. Place-of-performance can follow a carrier, a rural provider, or an administrative address in Atlanta. Work tagged to Georgia can involve parties elsewhere, and Georgia work can be coded to another state.

FCC coverage maps and state broadband-office dashboards are other products. Mixing any of those series with $1,403,296,334.10 leaves the USAspending award file. The 5,317 figure counts award records, including modifications present in the extract, not unique people, firms, or facilities.

Five thousand awards under $1.40 billion

Five thousand three hundred seventeen awards under a $1.40 billion book is a high-volume tape. Dividing $1,403,296,334.10 by 5,317 awards yields an implied mean near $263,926. That quotient is a ratio of two packet facts, not a typical award size and not a median. A few large vehicles can pull the average while many smaller rows sit below it.

Volume and dollars are different columns. Cite both 5,317 and $1,403,296,334.10. USAspending.gov is the source. SpendingVault does not recast $263,926 as a product schedule or a beneficiary payment.

Later ingests can revise $1,403,296,334.10 and 5,317. This prose is a packet snapshot. The overlay is the live table. If those two disagree, use the overlay. Keep the obligation label so the cell is not read as cash already paid in Georgia.
