Office of Science Financial Assistance Program in South Dakota

South Dakota x 81.049 is an Office of Science join, not a lab census

This page pairs CFDA 81.049, OFFICE OF SCIENCE FINANCIAL ASSISTANCE PROGRAM, with South Dakota place of performance. The Office of Science Financial Assistance Program, in program language, is a Department of Energy listing for basic research grants and related assistance from the Office of Science. SpendingVault sums tagged obligations: $234,869,907.70 on twenty-one awards. The extract does not list grantee names, research topics, or user-facility hours. Treat the pair as a catalog intersection, not a ranking of which state needs the program more, and not a claim that twenty-one awards equal that many local offices.

Other DOE listings — nuclear energy R&D on 81.121, or different science codes — sit outside $234,869,907.70 unless they also carry 81.049. Mixing 81.049 with nuclear energy R&D or other DOE listings would invent a combined Energy Department 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 South Dakota locates the tagged awards; it does not deposit $234,869,907.70 in the state treasury, and it does not prove every dollar stayed inside South Dakota after subawards.

How much Office of Science Financial Assistance Program funding is obligated in South Dakota?

USAspending.gov shows $234,869,907.70 in obligations for CFDA 81.049 with South Dakota as place of performance, across twenty-one awards. The sum is a commitment total on assistance awards, not outlays and not the state's entire federal-spending total. Other Energy listings are outside this join unless they also carry 81.049.

Do 21 awards mean 21 South Dakota laboratories received DOE grants?

No. Award count is a row count of assistance awards and can include continuations. It is not a census of laboratories or a count of principal investigators. The packet does not name recipients. See the South Dakota 81.049 overlay for named lines as USAspending stored them.

Is this South Dakota's entire Department of Energy spending?

Mixing 81.049 with nuclear energy R&D or other DOE listings would invent a combined Energy Department figure the packet never computed.

Is the 81.049 total already spent in South Dakota labs?
