Ammunition (Except Small Arms) Manufacturing federal obligations in West Virginia

Ammunition (Except Small Arms) Manufacturing (NAICS 332993) shows $294,976,951.77 in USAspending.gov obligations coded to West Virginia, across 20 awards. The pair is the industry code and the place-of-performance state (WV). Twenty awards against $294,976,951.77 is a thin, high-mean file. A few large vehicles can mint almost the whole dollar total. The implied mean is about $14.75 million per award — a quotient of two packet facts, not a typical contract. Amounts are obligations, not outlays. No fiscal year is published in this packet.

Key figures

  • NAICS 332993 in West Virginia: $294,976,951.77 across 20 USAspending awards.
  • Implied mean about $14.75 million per record — a packet quotient, not a typical contract.
  • NAICS 332993 × WV is not a measure of rounds produced, plant headcount, or named depots.
  • Cite obligations from USAspending.gov, not outlays.

A thin ammunition file on a West Virginia tag

Ammunition (Except Small Arms) Manufacturing as NAICS 332993, West Virginia as place of performance: 20 records summing to $294,976,951.77. A 332993 award coded outside WV is out. An award in West Virginia tagged to a different NAICS is out even if the work sounds related. West Virginia (WV) excludes Ohio, Pennsylvania, Virginia, Kentucky, and Maryland. A Pennsylvania-coded ammunition award is PA.

Twenty awards against $294,976,951.77 is a thin, high-mean file. A few large vehicles can mint almost the whole dollar total. Unique recipients are unpublished. Do not read 20 as 20 unique rounds produced, plant headcount, or named depots. West Virginia federal spending is the all-industry state hub. NAICS 332993 is the industry book without a WV filter. West Virginia industries lists other West Virginia industry cells. All spending ties indexes other joins.

Do not assign the twenty rows to a named plant. Place of performance is WV, not a facility list. Correlation is not causation: West Virginia did not “cause” $294,976,951.77 by existing as a large or small place. Population and outcome scores are not packet facts. The join is 332993 × WV only.

Except-small-arms is not small-arms ammunition

$294,976,951.77 does not measure rounds produced, plant headcount, or named depots. Those series are not USAspending fields on this aggregate. The cell sums award obligations with NAICS 332993 and a WV place-of-performance tag. Small-arms ammunition is a different NAICS class. This cell is 332993, ammunition except small arms.

Do not treat 20 awards as a census of rounds produced, plant headcount, or named depots. Parent hubs are supposed to be larger than this pair. If West Virginia federal spending or NAICS 332993 matched $294,976,951.77 and 20, the join would be pointless. Keep both keys on. Ohio, Pennsylvania, and Virginia 332993 joins are other pairs, not addends.

West Virginia statewide, not an Appalachian arsenal map

Place of performance WV is a geography tag on the award, not a metro list and not a commuting zone. West Virginia (WV) excludes Ohio, Pennsylvania, Virginia, Kentucky, and Maryland. A Pennsylvania-coded ammunition award is PA. Recipient headquarters can differ from that state tag.

Do not assign the twenty rows to a named plant. Place of performance is WV, not a facility list. This packet does not split $294,976,951.77 by city, county, or named facility. 20 awards stay statewide. A county table would be a different extract.

Few vehicles, still obligations

Even a thick or thin file records obligations, not necessarily outlays. $294,976,951.77 can include amounts that pay on a later schedule. Citing it as cash already sent in West Virginia confuses two concepts. Deobligations and upward adjustments both move the total.

West Virginia’s own budget is a different ledger. Mixing it with the 20-award USAspending file leaves this series. No fiscal year is published in this packet, so this page does not invent one. Keep the obligation label on $294,976,951.77. Twenty awards is the row count as USAspending grouped it, not a count of rounds produced, plant headcount, or named depots.

Citing NAICS 332993 in West Virginia

Cite USAspending.gov: Ammunition (Except Small Arms) Manufacturing (NAICS 332993) obligated $294,976,951.77 on 20 awards coded to West Virginia. Name both sides. Keep “obligations.” Do not relabel the total as rounds produced, plant headcount, or named depots.

West Virginia federal spending still includes every other NAICS tagged to WV. NAICS 332993 is the 332993 parent without the WV filter. West Virginia industries holds other West Virginia industry joins. All spending ties indexes other pairs. Do not add those parents into $294,976,951.77.

A usable footnote names NAICS 332993, West Virginia, $294,976,951.77, and 20. The compact headline $295M is that same dollar total rounded. It is not a second extract. The implied mean near $14.75 million is $294,976,951.77 divided by 20. Means are not medians. USAspending.gov remains the originating system.
