Assistance To Firefighters Grant awarded by Department of Homeland Security

Firefighter Grants × DHS is CFDA 97.044, not a department census

This page is a join: Assistance To Firefighters Grant (CFDA 97.044) and the Department of Homeland Security (agency 070). $515,656,332.17 is the obligation sum on that pair. It is not the government-wide assistance total, not every CFDA on All programs, and not cash already paid. Correlation is not causation: a large pair cell does not prove the Department of Homeland Security caused activity described by the program title, or the reverse. Campaign-finance tables are a different dataset; FEC donations do not fund these USAspending obligations.

/programs/97.044/ is the program parent without an awarding-agency filter. /agencies/070/ is the agency parent without this CFDA filter. /ties/ lists other pairs and /programs/ lists other CFDA hubs. A Assistance To Firefighters Grant award tagged to a different awarding agency sits outside this cell even if the CFDA is still 97.044. A Department of Homeland Security award on a different CFDA sits outside even if the topic sounds related. Two thousand eight hundred seventy-three awards is a thick action file, not 2,873 unique fire departments. Recurring AFG rounds add rows.

Assistance To Firefighters Grant as the program side

CFDA 97.044 is Assistance To Firefighters Grant. Confusing this join with SAFER Staffing 97.083, Non-Profit Security 97.008, or an NFPA apparatus ranking would be a different table. Packet facts on the program side are the name Assistance To Firefighters Grant, number 97.044, and program-wide obligations $515,656,332.17. This packet lists no award recipients and no contractor names. Any other vendor, school, tribe, carrier, or grantee list would be invented.

Department of Homeland Security as the awarding-agency side

Awarding-agency code 070 is the Department of Homeland Security. It is not a bureau split inside that department, not a place-of-performance state, and not a NAICS industry. In this extract the pair cell $515,656,332.17 matches the program-wide obligation total $515,656,332.17. Do not treat the program-wide $515,656,332.17 as if it were automatically the pair headline when the two figures differ. When they match, equality still does not name recipients.

Department of Homeland Security shows how Assistance To Firefighters Grant sits beside other CFDAs the Department of Homeland Security awards. This packet has no outlay total, no recipient roster, and no fiscal-year split. Department names, apparatus types, or ppe-count splits are unpublished. Department names, apparatus types, and PPE counts are unpublished on this packet.

2,873 awards behind the AFG–Homeland Security cell

The extract lists 2,873 awards on the Firefighter Grants × DHS pair. A thick equipment-and-training file: 2,873 awards against a large obligation total. Dividing $515,656,332.17 by 2,873 yields about $179,484 per award — a quotient of two packet facts, not a typical invoice and not a median. Unique recipients are unpublished. Modifications can add rows without naming a new organization. 2,873 is not a fire-department census, a named-apparatus roster, or an equipment inventory.

2,873 is the pair’s award-record count in this extract, not a published recipient census. Unique vendors and places of performance are unpublished. Do not read 2,873 as 2,873 finished projects under Firefighter Grants.

AFG obligations are not apparatus invoices already paid

An obligation is a legal commitment. An outlay is a payment. $515,656,332.17 is the former. Citing it as cash already cleared over-reads the field. The join cannot say that the Department of Homeland Security specialized in firefighter grants because of federal demand. Keep $515,656,332.17 labeled as Assistance To Firefighters Grant obligations awarded by the Department of Homeland Security. It is not a fire-department census, a named-apparatus roster, or an equipment inventory. The packet publishes no fiscal year, so this page does not invent one.
