Awards

Awarding-agency 013 and Maine (ME) are the pair. 274 awards against $659,498,778.19 is a 274-award Commerce file, fewer rows than a thick RRB book, still a nine-figure sum. The implied mean is about $2,406,929.85 per award — a quotient of two packet facts, not a typical invoice. USAspending.gov is the source. Amounts are obligations, not outlays.

Key figures

  • Department of Commerce obligated $659,498,778.19 in Maine across 274 awards (USAspending.gov).
  • The pair is awarding-agency 013 × place-of-performance ME.
  • Amounts are obligations, not outlays; no fiscal year is in this packet.
  • The implied mean near $2,406,929.85 is $659,498,778.19 divided by 274, not a typical award.
  • The join does not name contractors and does not measure NOAA vessel days, census operations, or named manufacturers.

Agency 013 overlapping Maine

Department of Commerce as awarding agency, Maine as place-of-performance: 274 records summing to $659,498,778.19. A Department of Commerce award coded outside ME is out. An award in Maine from a different awarding agency is out even if the topic sounds related. Maine (ME) excludes New Hampshire, Vermont, and Massachusetts. A Portland-coded award with a New Hampshire place-of-performance tag is a different cell.

274 awards against $659,498,778.19 is a 274-award Commerce file, fewer rows than a thick RRB book, still a nine-figure sum. Unique recipients are unpublished. Do not read 274 as 274 unique NOAA vessel days, census operations, or named manufacturers. Department of Commerce in Maine is the both-keys table. Maine federal spending is the all-agency state hub. Department of Commerce is the agency book without an ME filter. All spending ties lists other joins.

Fisheries and census folklore is unpublished. Unique recipients stay unpublished. Do not invent a named shipyard or mill as an extra dollar on this join. Correlation is not causation: Maine did not cause $659,498,778.19 by existing as a large or small place. Population and outcome scores are not packet facts. The join is 013 × ME only.

Commerce is a label, not a mill roster

$659,498,778.19 does not measure NOAA vessel days, census operations, or named manufacturers. Those series are not USAspending fields on this aggregate. The cell sums award obligations with awarding-agency code 013 and an ME place-of-performance tag.

Do not treat 274 awards as a census of NOAA vessel days, census operations, or named manufacturers. Parent hubs are supposed to be larger than this pair. If Maine federal spending or Department of Commerce matched $659,498,778.19 and 274, the join would be pointless. Use the overlay when both keys must stay on. Neighboring-state Commerce joins are other pairs, not addends.
