DHS awards tagged to Tennessee
Department of Homeland Security as awarding agency, Tennessee as place-of-performance: 676 records summing to $2,156,498,843.81. A Department of Homeland Security award coded outside TN is out. An award in Tennessee from a different awarding agency is out even if the topic sounds related.

FEMA, CBP, Coast Guard, TSA, and other DHS components are unpublished splits inside awarding agency 070.

Unique recipients are unpublished. Do not read 676 as 676 unique FEMA declarations, unique contractors, or named installations. The overlay Department of Homeland Security in Tennessee is the both-keys table. Tennessee federal spending is the all-agency state hub. Department of Homeland Security is the agency book without a TN filter. All spending ties lists other joins.

Not a FEMA declaration or Guard roster
$2,156,498,843.81 does not measure FEMA declarations, unique contractors, or named installations. Those series are not USAspending fields on this aggregate. The cell sums award obligations with awarding-agency code 070 and a TN place-of-performance tag. FEMA, CBP, Coast Guard, TSA, and other DHS components are unpublished splits inside awarding agency 070.
Do not treat 676 awards as a census of FEMA declarations, unique contractors, or named installations. Parent hubs are supposed to be larger than this pair. If Tennessee federal spending or Department of Homeland Security matched $2,156,498,843.81 and 676, the join would be pointless. Use the overlay when both keys must stay on. Kentucky, Alabama, and Georgia DHS joins are other pairs, not addends.
