BEAD Program funding in Louisiana 6th District (LA-06)

A place-of-performance join: BEAD × LA-06

CFDA 11.035 and congressional district LA-06 meet here. $1,355,554,553 is the USAspending.gov obligation sum on awards that carry both tags. It is not Broadband Equity, Access, And Deployment Program’s nationwide total, not every federal dollar coded to Louisiana 6th District (LA-06), and not an outlay register. The packet does not split last-mile from middle-mile work and does not name internet-service providers. 1 is an action count: modifications and repeat awards add rows. Unique recipients are unpublished. It is not a fiber-mile inventory, an ISP roster, or a named-subgrantee file.

Dividing $1,355,554,553 by 1 yields about $1,355,554,553 per award on average. That ratio is two packet facts. It is not a cost per passing or a posted per-household figure. One award means the implied mean equals the cell. Do not invent an ISP or a parish fiber map; recipients are unpublished. Do not treat LA-06’s 11.035 cell as a synonym for every BEAD account nationwide. Open Louisiana 6th District for the district table without this program filter, CFDA 11.035 for CFDA 11.035 without the LA-06 filter, Louisiana federal spending for every program in the Louisiana extract, and All spending ties for the rest of the join list. Quote those hubs as parents, not as addends to $1,355,554,553.

Broadband Equity, Access, And Deployment Program as a CFDA tag, not as a named-vendor list

USAspending labels CFDA 11.035 as Broadband Equity, Access, And Deployment Program. That catalog number produced $1,355,554,553 when crossed with Louisiana 6th District (LA-06) place of performance. The program-wide 11.035 hub does not require LA-06 geography. The district hub does not require BEAD. Only this tie applies both filters, which is why it cites 1 awards. The packet does not split last-mile from middle-mile work and does not name internet-service providers.

Correlation is not causation: Louisiana 6th District (LA-06) did not “cause” $1,355,554,553 by existing as a large or small place. Population, outcome scores, and named facilities are not packet facts. The join is 11.035 × LA-06 only. It is not a fiber-mile inventory, an ISP roster, or a named-subgrantee file. Do not invent contractors or award recipients to fill the gap. Campaign donations on FEC tables do not fund this USAspending cell; the datasets are separate.

Place of performance for Louisiana 6th District (LA-06)

Louisiana 6th District (LA-06) on this join is a USAspending geography field, not a claim that every dollar was disbursed to residents of that district. Awards can list LA-06 while later work occurs elsewhere. Awards tagged to other Louisiana districts belong on those ties even when the CFDA is also 11.035. Louisiana 6th District (LA-06) is a numbered congressional place-of-performance code inside Louisiana. Other Louisiana districts are separate joins even when they reuse CFDA 11.035. Louisiana 6th District (LA-06) is the same place-of-performance stamp as the FEMA IHP and hazard-mitigation joins, but CFDA 11.035 is a Commerce broadband catalog line.

Obligation math for this join

USAspending.gov records an obligation when the federal government commits funds on an award. $1,355,554,553 is that kind of sum for Broadband Equity, Access, And Deployment Program inside LA-06 coding. Later deobligations, recoveries, or payment schedules can change what leaves the Treasury without this join rewriting itself into a cash register. Assistance and contract awards can share the same CFDA rollup; this packet does not split them. Net obligations can include downward adjustments. This page reports $1,355,554,553 as given.

Louisiana’s own budget is a separate ledger. Mixing it with the 1-row BEAD cell leaves USAspending.gov. Treat 1 as award records in the aggregate, not unique vendors. 1 is not a count of miles, households, or ISPs. Do not annualize without a year field in the packet. Do not per-capita or per-recipient the dollar total; those denominators are unpublished. The implied mean ($1,355,554,553) is a concentration statistic, not a cost per passing or a posted per-household figure.

The pair is not a fiber-mile inventory, an ISP roster, or a named-subgrantee file. 5.4% of $25,032,831,519.57 is the district share on this packet, not a performance score. Virginia 4th District’s BEAD pair on this slice is a different geography. Do not add VA-04 and LA-06 BEAD cells.

Using 5.4% and $1,355,554,553 without overclaiming

One award means the implied mean equals the cell. Do not invent an ISP or a parish fiber map; recipients are unpublished. A large row count makes a project split tempting; the packet still does not supply one. A small row count makes a named-facility story tempting; the packet still does not name facilities or contractors. The implied mean (about $1,355,554,553) and the district share (5.4% of $25,032,831,519.57) are ratios of packet facts. Prefer Louisiana 6th District and CFDA 11.035 if the live tables moved.

Do not rank Louisiana 6th District (LA-06) as more BEAD-dependent than neighboring districts on the strength of this cell alone. Neighboring geographies have their own 11.035 ties with different dollar totals, or no published 11.035 cell in this harvest. This snapshot holds $1,355,554,553 and 1 only. All spending ties is the index, not an addend. Obligations are not outlays. Correlation is not causation.
