Broadband Equity, Access, and Deployment obligations in Michigan

One prime award carries Michigan’s BEAD allocation

This tie keeps USAspending assistance where CFDA 11.035 meets Michigan place of performance. The dollar book is $1,559,362,479.52. The award count is 1. BEAD state allocations typically post as a single large award to the state broadband office or designated recipient. One prime record does not mean one ISP was selected, and it does not mean one county will receive the entire book.

The join does not prove that Michigan’s unserved-location count, Great Lakes shoreline geography, or a particular middle-mile map caused $1,559,362,479.52. Those are other series. This packet has no project list. Correlation is not causation.

A reader who treats the cell as Michigan’s full Commerce/NTIA obligation book has left the CFDA-by-state definition. Office of Science financial assistance is a different catalog number on the same statewide stack. The 1 figure is a record count, not a count of passing addresses.

The implied mean equals the cell

One award under $1,559,362,479.52 implies a mean of $1,559,362,479.52. With a single row, mean and total are the same number. Downstream subawards to ISPs are not additional prime awards in this extract.

Cite the single-award structure so a reader does not hunt for hundreds of last-mile contracts that were never the BEAD filing pattern at the prime level. USAspending.gov is the source; SpendingVault does not recast the total as a typical ISP contract.

Michigan’s 11.035 cell versus parent rollups

Michigan’s state hub stacks every CFDA with performance coded to the state. BEAD is one NTIA line. $1,559,362,479.52 is not Michigan’s all-program total. The nationwide CFDA 11.035 page includes every state, so it is not this cell.

Place-of-performance on a state BEAD award usually sits on Michigan even when future subawards scatter. This packet does not reallocate dollars to counties. Read the overlay as a coding view of 1 award.

Obligations versus fiber in the ground

The $1,559,362,479.52 figure is an obligation sum. Construction outlays can trail the federal obligation by years. SpendingVault does not publish an 11.035-in-Michigan outlay total in this packet. Mixing FCC map locations or speed-test statistics with this award file leaves the USAspending series.

Cite the join as CFDA 11.035 × Michigan, $1,559,362,479.52, 1 award, obligations only.

Parent hubs

The Michigan × Broadband Equity, Access, and Deployment overlay is the table view. Recipient slices on that hub still sum toward $1,559,362,479.52 on 1 award. The Michigan spending page and the CFDA 11.035 program page are the parents. The Michigan programs index and the ties index list other pairs.

None of those links convert the cell into fiber miles or into outlays this packet omits.

What Michigan BEAD is not

The Broadband Equity, Access, and Deployment Program in Michigan is not a ranking of Upper Peninsula unserved locations and not a count of fiber miles. The $1,559,362,479.52 figure is the CFDA 11.035 × Michigan cell. One award describes the state allocation filing, not one ISP. Office of Science financial assistance in Michigan is a different DOE catalog number with a 184-award tape; do not add 11.035 and 81.049 from memory.

Title I in Michigan is a three-award Education Department cell. Cite BEAD and Michigan together, keep the obligation label, and keep the 1-award count. Construction draws can lag the federal obligation by years. Later bulk files can revise both dollars and the record count. The overlay is the live table.

Michigan’s BEAD cell also does not include FCC map locations, Upper Peninsula project lists, or ISP subawards. Those series live with NTIA and the state broadband office after subawards post. SpendingVault cites USAspending.gov obligations only: CFDA 11.035 × Michigan, $1,559,362,479.52, 1 award. With one row, the implied mean equals the total. Quote the packet facts and the overlay path rather than a construction story.

USAspending.gov shows $1,559,362,479.52 in CFDA 11.035 obligations coded to Michigan across 1 award. The join uses the program number and Michigan place of performance. The total is obligations, not outlays.

Why is there only 1 award for $1.56 billion?

BEAD state allocations often post as a single large prime award to the designated state recipient. The extract counts 1 record tagged to CFDA 11.035 and Michigan. With one award, the implied mean equals the total: $1,559,362,479.52.

Is $1.56 billion Michigan’s full federal spending?

No. $1,559,362,479.52 is only the Broadband Equity, Access, and Deployment Program cell. Other CFDA programs with Michigan place of performance sit on the statewide hub. Nationwide 11.035 is not limited to Michigan.
