Department of Justice in Vermont

Justice awards tagged to Vermont

Department of Justice as awarding agency, Vermont as place-of-performance: 171 records summing to $98,101,421.40. A Department of Justice award coded outside VT is out. An award in Vermont from a different awarding agency is out even if the topic sounds related. Vermont (VT) excludes New Hampshire, New York, Massachusetts, and Quebec. A Albany-coded award is NY even if a task force sits on the Vermont side. Awarding agency 015 can mix formula grants and other instruments. The packet does not name the mix.

One hundred seventy-one records against $98,101,421.40 is a thin Justice file, closer to a North Dakota cell than to a high-volume assistance flood. Unique recipients are unpublished. Do not read 171 as 171 unique prosecutions, named cases, or unique grantees. The overlay Department of Justice in Vermont is the both-keys table. Vermont federal spending is the all-agency state hub. Department of Justice is the agency book without a VT filter. All spending ties lists other joins. Burlington is unpublished as a metro share. Do not treat 171 as unique Vermont prosecutions. Correlation is not causation: Vermont did not cause $98,101,421.40 by existing as a large or small place. Population and outcome scores are not packet facts. The join is 015 × VT only.

Not a Burlington case list

$98,101,421.40 does not measure unique prosecutions, named cases, or unique grantees. Those series are not USAspending fields on this aggregate. The cell sums award obligations with awarding-agency code 015 and a VT place-of-performance tag. Awarding agency 015 can mix formula grants and other instruments. The packet does not name the mix.

Do not treat 171 awards as a census of unique prosecutions, named cases, or unique grantees. Parent hubs are supposed to be larger than this pair. If Vermont federal spending or Department of Justice matched $98,101,421.40 and 171, the join would be pointless. Use the overlay when both keys must stay on. New Hampshire, New York, and Massachusetts Justice joins are other pairs, not addends. Do not add this $98,101,421.40 to a New Hampshire Justice join. They are different ST keys.
