Geosciences in Wyoming
CFDA 47.050 — federal program obligations to Wyoming
Total obligated
$38.9M
Awards
14
USAspending.gov records $38,908,172 in Geosciences obligations under CFDA 47.050 with place of performance in Wyoming, spread across 14 awards. That figure is an obligation sum for one Catalog of Federal Domestic Assistance number inside one state, not an outlay ledger and not Wyoming’s full federal footprint. Fourteen Wyoming Geosciences awards totaling $38,908,172 are not fourteen field seasons and not a mineral-economy score for the state. The pair is a join: program 47.050 and state WY.
Key figures
- Geosciences CFDA 47.050 shows $38,908,172 in Wyoming place-of-performance obligations on 14 awards.
- Mean obligation is about $2,779,155.14 per award.
- The figure is a two-key USAspending join, not Wyoming’s full federal total and not a census of laboratories, field seasons, or earth-science investigators.
- Obligations are not outlays; FEC filings do not fund this cell.
- Wyoming is a place-of-performance tag (state WY), not a unit census.
What this Geosciences–Wyoming join is
Geosciences and Wyoming meet on this page. $38,908,172 is the obligation sum on records that carry both keys. The Wyoming spending hub totals every CFDA in the state. The national Geosciences hub totals every state for 47.050. This page is the overlap, not a ranking of programs and not a claim that Wyoming caused the awards. USAspending.gov is the source table. Obligations are commitments recorded on the award file, not outlays that have already left the Treasury.
Fourteen awards against $38,908,172 yields about $2,779,155.14 per award if the sum were divided evenly. That mean is arithmetic, not a typical instrument and not a median. Correlation between a catalog code and a Wyoming place-of-performance tag is not causation. FEC donations do not fund this USAspending cell. Campaign-finance tables and federal award tables remain separate datasets even when they share a geography label.
CFDA 47.050, not a Wyoming minerals ledger
The catalog number is 47.050. Official title: GEOSCIENCES. Other science catalog numbers that do not carry CFDA 47.050 would invent a combined total this packet never computed. Packet facts on the program side stop at the name Geosciences, the number 47.050, $38,908,172, and 14 awards. This packet lists no award recipients and no contractor names. Geosciences as a catalog title describes the assistance type on the award file. It does not prove how each dollar was used on the ground.
The catalog string does not grade Wyoming and does not name laboratories, field seasons, or earth-science investigators. Place of performance can sit on a statewide stamp that only says Wyoming. Laramie, Casper, or Cheyenne folklore may send a reader here; those stories are not a metro split in this packet. The nationwide CFDA 47.050 page includes other geographies, so it is not this cell.

- How much Geosciences funding is obligated in Wyoming?
- USAspending.gov records $38,908,172 in obligations for CFDA 47.050 with Wyoming place of performance, covering 14 awards. That is an obligation aggregate for this pair, not outlays and not a census of laboratories, field seasons, or earth-science investigators. Keep Geosciences and Wyoming together when citing $38,908,172.
- What is the average Geosciences award in Wyoming?
- Dividing $38,908,172 by 14 awards produces about $2,779,155.14 per award. That mean is not a median and not a typical single instrument. 14 remains a USAspending award-record count, not 14 laboratories, field seasons, or earth-science investigators. Unique recipients are unpublished.
- Is this all federal spending in Wyoming?
- No. Only CFDA 47.050 (Geosciences) is in this cell. Other programs appear on the Wyoming programs index and on other state–program ties. Nationwide 47.050 is not limited to Wyoming. Mixing other science catalog numbers that do not carry CFDA 47.050 would invent a larger total.
- Where is the live 47.050 × WY table?
- Geosciences in Wyoming is the overlay at /states/wy/programs/47.050/. CFDA 47.050 is /programs/47.050/. Wyoming federal spending is /states/wy/. Wyoming programs is /states/wy/programs/. All spending ties is /ties/. Original filings remain on USAspending.gov for this 47.050 × WY pair.
