Sixteen AMLR awards on the Wyoming key
CFDA 15.252 is titled Abandoned Mine Land Reclamation (AMLR). Wyoming is the place-of-performance state. $876,965,765.59 sums obligations on records that carry both keys. Sixteen awards is a concentrated file, close to West Virginia’s 19-award count. The packet does not name AML sites, coal basins, or uranium workings. The join is a two-key filter, not a hazard ranking.
The Wyoming hub totals every program. The national 15.252 hub totals every state. This tie is the overlap. Interior Tribal Self-Governance (15.022) is a different 15-series code and is not inside $876,965,765.59.
Sixteen awards against $876,965,765.59 is the thinner of the two AMLR joins in this harvest. Thinner is three fewer rows than West Virginia, not a smaller coalfield in any measured sense—the packet has no acreage. Wyoming’s about-$54.8 million mean is $876,965,765.59 divided by 16. If one of those sixteen instruments is much larger than the others, the mean will not resemble a typical project. The packet does not publish a median to check that.
What reclamation assistance this CFDA holds
Abandoned mine land reclamation is a specific OSMRE assistance line as titled. It is not active-mine inspection, not BLM grazing, and not EPA Superfund. Packet facts are the obligation total, 16 awards, state WY, and CFDA 15.252. No acreage-reclaimed table is included.
Place of performance tagged Wyoming can cover a statewide AML grant or a project award. Awards coded to Montana, Colorado, or Utah stay on other ties even when mining districts cross those borders.
Wyoming as geography, not an energy scorecard
Wyoming is USAspending state code WY. $876,965,765.59 is not every federal dollar in Wyoming and is not the state’s mineral-royalty total. The packet has no production figure, and this page does not invent one.
Statewide Wyoming federal spending is the parent. CFDA 15.252 is one Interior line. Readers looking for USDA, HHS, or DOT programs in Wyoming should use other CFDA joins. This reclamation cell does not substitute for those indexes, and $876,965,765.59 is not a statewide energy score.
A mean near $54.8 million
Average obligation is about $54.8 million ($876,965,765.59 ÷ 16). West Virginia’s 15.252 mean in this harvest is about $49.2 million on 19 awards. Wyoming’s higher mean flags fewer rows under a slightly smaller dollar total, not proof that Wyoming sites cost more to reclaim.
Net obligations can include downward adjustments. This page reports $876,965,765.59 as given. Obligations are not outlays.
What the Wyoming–15.252 pair is not
A shared state tag does not mean Wyoming selected these awards, and it does not mean AMLR outlays equal $876,965,765.59. FEC donations do not fund this USAspending cell. Correlation is not causation.

Wyoming AMLR overlay versus West Virginia’s sibling cell
Abandoned Mine Land Reclamation (Amlr) in Wyoming is the overlay for CFDA 15.252 inside state WY. Sixteen awards and $876,965,765.59 sit next to West Virginia’s 19-award, $935,350,698.52 cell. Wyoming’s higher mean is fewer rows under a slightly smaller total. That comparison does not rank leftover mines, coal versus uranium, or reclamation difficulty. Site names are not in the packet. Interior 15.022 self-governance remains a different code.
Wyoming programs is the CFDA index. The national 15.252 hub drops the Wyoming filter. Cross-border mining districts into Montana, Colorado, or Utah do not automatically split $876,965,765.59. This join does not publish acreage reclaimed. Obligations are not outlays. FEC filings do not fund the cell. Treat 16 as award records, not as a count of AML features.
