Department of Transportation in Nevada

DOT awards tagged to Nevada

Department of Transportation as awarding agency, Nevada as place-of-performance: 833 records summing to $2,426,339,145.16. A Department of Transportation award coded outside NV is out. An award in Nevada from a different awarding agency is out even if the topic sounds related. Nevada (NV) excludes California, Arizona, Utah, Idaho, and Oregon. A Los Angeles-coded award is California even if freight crosses the desert.

Eight hundred thirty-three awards is a thin-to-mid DOT file: fewer rows than a typical thick formula book, more than a 200-row Energy cell. Unique recipients are unpublished. Do not read 833 as 833 unique lane-miles, unique contractors, or named Interstates. The overlay Department of Transportation in Nevada is the both-keys table. Nevada federal spending is the all-agency state hub. Department of Transportation is the agency book without an NV filter. All spending ties lists other joins.

Las Vegas and Reno share one NV stamp. This packet does not isolate an airport AIP award or a named corridor. Correlation is not causation: Nevada did not “cause” $2,426,339,145.16 by existing as a large or small place. Population and outcome scores are not packet facts. The join is 069 × NV only.

Not I-15 folklore or a lane-mile census

$2,426,339,145.16 does not measure lane-miles, unique contractors, or named Interstates. Those series are not USAspending fields on this aggregate. The cell sums award obligations with awarding-agency code 069 and an NV place-of-performance tag.

Do not treat 833 awards as a census of lane-miles, unique contractors, or named Interstates. Parent hubs are supposed to be larger than this pair. If Nevada federal spending or Department of Transportation matched $2,426,339,145.16 and 833, the join would be pointless. Use the overlay when both keys must stay on. California, Arizona, and Utah DOT joins are other pairs, not addends.
