Key figures
- USAspending cell: NSF × Utah = $328,491,775.80.
- 450 records, about $729,981.72 each as a mean.
- Outlays and fiscal-year splits are unpublished here.
- Campus names belong on the overlay table if they appear as recipients.
- No contractor names in this packet; geography is statewide Utah.
What the NSF × Utah join publishes
$328,491,775.80 attaches only to awards that carry both National Science Foundation (agency 049) and Utah geography. Remove either filter and the total is a different number. Campus-lab and research-grant folklore is a coding conversation, not a packet field. The join does not rank Utah against other states.
450 is a record count on the NSF–Utah overlay, not a headcount of unique campuses. 450 award actions sit behind that dollar figure — a mid-size award list beside a large obligation total. This narrative does not invent contractor names.

Average versus typical research-grant award
The mean obligation of about $729,981.72 is arithmetic only. A mid-size award list can hide one large action among smaller modifications. Readers who need instrument type should use the overlay table, not this narrative. No contractor is named here because none appears in the packet facts.
If a later ingest restates $328,491,775.80, the join definition stays the same: agency 049 plus Utah place of performance. Rewrite only the sentence whose source moved.
