BEAD broadband obligations in Alaska

Alaska BEAD obligations, one prime record

CFDA 11.035 is titled BROADBAND EQUITY, ACCESS, AND DEPLOYMENT PROGRAM. Filtered to Alaska place of performance, obligations sum to $1,017,139,672 on 1 award. The national Broadband Equity, Access, And Deployment Program hub includes every state. Alaska's spending hub includes every program. This tie is the intersection. $1,017,139,672 is an obligation aggregate from USAspending.gov, not an outlay and not a count of fiber miles, unserved locations, or ISPs in Anchorage, Juneau, or Fairbanks.

BEAD state allocations typically post as a single large award to the designated state recipient. The join does not name recipients, split the Railbelt and Southeast, or count fiber miles, unserved locations, or ISPs. Packet facts stop at $1,017,139,672, 1 award, AK, and 11.035. Correlation is not causation.

11.035 is not High Cost USF in Alaska

Universal Service Fund High Cost (CFDA 32.002) sits on other Catalog numbers. Mixing those dollars into $1,017,139,672 would invent a broader total than this 11.035 × AK cell contains. Facts available: Alaska, CFDA 11.035, $1,017,139,672, 1 award. Recipient names, subawards, and fiber mile, unserved location, or ISP counts are not in the facts.

The catalog title names Broadband Equity, Access, And Deployment Program, not a ranking of Alaska outcomes. With one award, the implied mean equals $1,017,139,672. Unique recipients are unpublished. 1 is not a count of fiber miles, unserved locations, or ISPs.

Alaska geography on the BEAD Broadband tag

AK is the place-of-performance code. Awards billed to Anchorage, Juneau, or Fairbanks can share the tag. Awards coded to Washington or Oregon (contiguous U.S. tags) stay outside $1,017,139,672 even when a network or research team crosses those borders. Railbelt and Southeast plans share one AK code; this extract does not split them. Place of performance does not convert $1.02 billion into a fiber map.

Alaska federal spending is the all-program parent. 11.035 is one row on Alaska programs. $1.02 billion is not the state's complete federal footprint. Open Broadband Equity, Access, And Deployment Program in Alaska for the filtered table, CFDA 11.035 for 11.035 without a Alaska filter, and All spending ties for other pairs. Do not add those parents into $1,017,139,672.

Reading 1 award under $1.02 billion

One award under $1,017,139,672 implies a mean of $1,017,139,672. With a single row, mean and total are the same number. Draws and reimbursements can lag the federal obligation by years. The figure is still an obligation aggregate, not an outlay. Treat 1 as a record count in an aggregate, not as 1 finished BEAD allocation.

USAspending obligations can be positive new awards or net of downward modifications; $1,017,139,672 is the net total supplied in the facts. Without a transaction register, you cannot see whether the row is a continuation, renewal, or correction. Later ingests can restate $1,017,139,672 without changing the join key of 11.035 and AK.

What the BEAD Broadband–Alaska pair does not prove

A large 11.035 total tagged to Alaska does not measure whether unserved locations fell, and it does not equal miles built. FEC donations do not fund this USAspending cell. Correlation is not causation. The headline remains $1,017,139,672 on 1 award for Broadband Equity, Access, And Deployment Program in Alaska.

Keep both sides of the join: Broadband Equity, Access, And Deployment Program and Alaska, obligations only. Do not annualize $1,017,139,672 without a year field—this packet publishes none. Do not treat 1 as a fiber mile, unserved location, or ISP census. Quote USAspending.gov and the overlay path rather than a program story.

Using the BEAD Broadband–Alaska overlay

The overlay target is the Alaska × CFDA 11.035 table. Open Broadband Equity, Access, And Deployment Program in Alaska when you want the same $1,017,139,672 / 1-award cell in the site's data chrome. CFDA 11.035 drops the Alaska filter. Alaska federal spending drops the CFDA filter. Alaska programs lists other catalogs beside Broadband Equity, Access, And Deployment Program. All spending ties is the directory of other pairs.

This page exists because two tables meet: a CFDA program and a place-of-performance state. It does not exist to argue that Alaska won or lost federal money, that donations paid for the awards, or that obligations equal cash. The pair is 11.035 plus AK. Obligations of $1,017,139,672 are not outlays. Cite Broadband Equity, Access, And Deployment Program together with Alaska whenever you reuse $1,017,139,672. 1 remains an award-record count on USAspending.gov, not a person, facility, or project census.
