The awarding-agency 015 filter plus Kansas
Awarding agency 015 and place-of-performance state KS meet here. $270,520,773.88 is the obligation sum on awards that carry both tags. It is not Department of Justice's nationwide budget, not Kansas's entire federal inflow, and not cash already paid. DOJ in Kansas is a justice-assistance cell, not a courthouse census and not a prison-headcount. U.s. attorney, prison, and byrne-grant folklore and aviation-corridor and plains-agriculture folklore may send a reader here. Those stories are not packet NAICS and not a census of courthouses.
830 award actions sit behind that dollar figure — more than a few hundred rows can mix large instruments with smaller service awards. A long row list can mix small support payments with larger instruments. The join does not rank Kansas against other states and does not name grantees inside the extract. Unique recipients are unpublished.

Mean obligation of about $325,928.64
Dividing $270,520,773.88 by 830 yields about $325,928.64 per award on average. That average hides contracts, grants, and other instruments. It is not a typical justice-assistance award. A second DOJ slice on another state uses the same agency code and a different dollar total. Do not treat Kansas's 015 total as a synonym for every Department of Justice bureau account.
U.s. attorney, prison, and byrne-grant folklore is a coding conversation, not a packet field. Agency names and recipient rows live on the overlay table, not in this narrative's extra columns. Aviation-corridor and plains-agriculture folklore may explain a search path. It does not add dollars.
