Affordable Connectivity Program in Maine

Maine x 32.008 is an ACP join, not a subscriber census

This page pairs CFDA 32.008, AFFORDABLE CONNECTIVITY PROGRAM, with Maine place of performance. The Affordable Connectivity Program, in program language, is an FCC listing that subsidized broadband service and connected devices for eligible households. SpendingVault sums tagged obligations: $274,427,428.39 on 916 awards. The extract does not list households enrolled, providers, or devices issued. Treat the pair as a catalog intersection, not a ranking of which state needs the program more, and not a claim that 916 awards equal that many local offices.

Other FCC listings — the Supply Chain Reimbursement Program or different connectivity codes — sit outside $274,427,428.39 unless they also carry 32.008. Mixing ACP with Supply Chain Reimbursement or USDA rural broadband listings would invent a combined connectivity figure the packet never computed. Correlation between this obligation sum and local need statistics is not causation. Those statistics are not in the packet. Place of performance as Maine locates the tagged awards; it does not deposit $274,427,428.39 in the state treasury, and it does not prove every dollar stayed inside Maine after subawards.

916 awards behind $274,427,428.39

Award count is a row count of assistance awards, including possible annual runs, modifications, and producer-level contracts. It is not a census of broadband subscribers or a count of internet providers. Mean obligation is about $299,593.26 if $274,427,428.39 were divided evenly across 916 lines — a mechanical ratio across a high-volume file, not a typical payment published by the agency.

916 lines cannot be narrated one by one. Sort the Maine 32.008 overlay by amount to see whether a few large rows dominate or the total is spread. This page will not invent recipient names. Open Affordable Connectivity Program in Maine for the stored table. Do not convert 916 into a map of Maine providers. The $274,427,428.39 total remains an obligation rollup on tagged awards.

Questions

How much Affordable Connectivity Program funding is obligated in Maine?

USAspending.gov shows $274,427,428.39 in obligations for CFDA 32.008 with Maine as place of performance, across 916 awards. The sum is a commitment total on assistance awards, not outlays and not the state's entire federal-spending total. Other FCC listings are outside this join unless they also carry 32.008.

Do 916 awards mean 916 Maine internet providers received ACP?

No. Award count is a row count of assistance awards and can include continuations. It is not a census of broadband subscribers or a count of internet providers. The packet does not name recipients. See the Maine 32.008 overlay for named lines as USAspending stored them.

Is this Maine's entire broadband budget?

No. The join is CFDA 32.008 crossed with Maine place of performance. Related programs on other CFDA numbers are not inside $274,427,428.39 unless the award also carries 32.008. Mixing ACP with Supply Chain Reimbursement or USDA rural broadband listings would invent a combined connectivity figure the packet never computed.

Is the ACP total already credited on Maine bills?

Not on this metric. Obligations are recorded commitments on assistance awards. Outlays are payments from the Treasury. The $274,427,428.39 headline is the obligation rollup in SpendingVault's extract. Completed activity and remaining balances are not published in this packet.
