NOAA, Census, NIST, and Northern Virginia federal-office folklore send readers to Commerce in Virginia. GDP is a BEA series, not this awards join. This packet does not isolate a bureau.

  • Virginia federal spending and Department of Commerce are parents, not amounts to add into $7,038,058,979.79.

What the Commerce–Virginia join is

Awarding agency 013 and place-of-performance state VA meet here. $7,038,058,979.79 is the USAspending.gov obligation sum on awards that carry both tags. It is not Department of Commerce’s nationwide total, not every federal dollar coded to Virginia, and not an outlay register. Bureaus under 013 can share the cell. Virginia also has a Treasury (014) cell in this slice; that is a different awarding agency.

2,361 is a moderate row count, consistent with a mix of formula vehicles and project awards, without naming those vehicles. Modifications and repeat awards add rows. Unique recipients are unpublished. Dividing $7,038,058,979.79 by 2,361 yields about $2.98 million per award on average. That ratio is two packet facts. It is not a typical contract, grant, or benefit line.

Open Department of Commerce in Virginia for the live filtered table, Virginia federal spending for every awarding agency in the state extract, Department of Commerce for agency 013 without a Virginia filter, and All spending ties for the rest of the join list. Quote those hubs as parents, not as addends to $7,038,058,979.79.

Awarding agency 013 as the Commerce side

USAspending labels awarding agency 013 as Department of Commerce. That code produced $7,038,058,979.79 when crossed with Virginia place of performance. The agency-wide 013 hub does not require VA geography. The Virginia hub does not require Commerce. Only the overlay applies both filters, which is why this tie cites 2,361 awards.

A state GDP figure, a fisheries landing, and a census-operation headcount are unpublished. 2,361 awards is a moderate Commerce book, not a count of Virginia exporters. A second Commerce slice on another state uses the same agency code and a different dollar total. Do not treat Virginia’s 013 cell as a synonym for every Commerce account.

Questions

How much Commerce spending is coded to Virginia?
USAspending.gov lists $7,038,058,979.79 in Department of Commerce obligations across 2,361 Virginia-coded awards. Agency 013 × VA is an obligation join, not an outlay and not Virginia’s complete federal ledger. Department of Commerce in Virginia is the live overlay for this pair. Unique recipients are unpublished. Average obligation is about $2.98 million, a ratio of those two facts only.
Does this total include every Commerce program in Virginia?
The packet publishes one awarding-agency rollup, not a program pie. $7,038,058,979.79 is the combined obligation sum for agency 013 inside Virginia coding. Open Department of Commerce in Virginia to inspect award lines. 2,361 is an action count, not a program count. Unique recipients are unpublished. Do not invent a CFDA split from the department label.
Is $7,038,058,979.79 cash already paid in Virginia?
No. Obligations are commitments recorded on USAspending.gov awards. Outlays — money that actually left the Treasury — are a different concept and are not this packet’s headline. Treating $7,038,058,979.79 as checks already cleared in Virginia confuses those terms. Later ingests can revise 2,361 awards. Prefer the overlay if the table moved.
Where is the live Commerce–Virginia table?
Department of Commerce in Virginia is the overlay. Virginia federal spending and Department of Commerce are the parents. All spending ties lists other agency-state pairs. Those hubs are not addends. Keep both sides of the join when citing $7,038,058,979.79. Place of performance is VA, not a county map. Obligations are not outlays.
