Copper Rolling, Drawing, Extruding, And Alloying federal obligations in Kentucky
Copper Rolling, Drawing, Extruding, And Alloying (NAICS 331420) shows $68,883,770.82 in USAspending.gov obligations with Kentucky as place of performance. Eighty-two awards sit behind that total. The join is a Census industry code crossed with a state location field, not Kentucky's entire copper economy and not a count of mills. The dollars are commitments, not Treasury outlays.

Kentucky x 331420 is an industry join, not a mill census
This page pairs NAICS 331420, COPPER ROLLING, DRAWING, EXTRUDING, AND ALLOYING, with Kentucky place of performance. The code covers copper rolling, drawing, extruding, and alloying, not copper mining and not fabricated copper products as a further stage. SpendingVault sums tagged obligations: $68,883,770.82 on 82 awards. The extract does not list mills, tons, or alloy grades. Treat the pair as a catalog intersection, not a ranking of which state rolls more copper, and not a claim that 82 awards equal 82 mills.
Other related listings — copper mining, copper foundries, or wire drawing as other listings — sit outside $68,883,770.82 unless they also carry 331420. Mixing copper rolling with copper mining would invent a combined copper figure the packet never computed. Correlation between this obligation sum and mine output is not causation. Mine output are not in the packet. Place of performance as Kentucky locates the tagged awards; it does not deposit $68,883,770.82 in a state metals account.
82 awards behind $68.9 million
Award count is a row count of tagged awards, including possible modifications and delivery orders. It is not a census of plants, sites, or contractors. Mean obligation is about $840,046 if $68,883,770.82 were divided evenly across 82 lines — a mechanical ratio, not a typical mill-products contract, and not a published unit price. The packet has no rod-versus-sheet split inside 331420.
Eighty-two lines are too many to narrate one by one. Sort the Kentucky 331420 overlay by amount to see concentration. This page will not invent contractor names. Open NAICS 331420 for the national listing and Kentucky industries for other codes. Do not convert 82 into a map of job sites. The $68,883,770.82 total remains an obligation rollup on tagged awards.
What NAICS 331420 covers in this extract
The listing title is Copper Rolling, Drawing, Extruding, And Alloying. This extract does not split rod from sheet or tube, nor does it split defense from civilian buyers. Those cuts would require award documentation beyond dollars, 82 awards, NAICS 331420, and Kentucky. This page will not invent a product-line share.
Obligations are recorded commitments. Outlays are payments from the Treasury. The $68,883,770.82 headline is the obligation sum, not metal already shipped and not a fiscal-year outlay total. No fiscal year is attached. A metals press release dated to a particular year is not automatically this join unless it uses NAICS 331420, Kentucky geography, and the obligation metric.
What the Kentucky copper rolling table omits
The extract has no employment count, no mill list, and no tonnage inventory. Facts remain $68,883,770.82, 82 awards, NAICS 331420, and Kentucky. This page will not invent a ranking against other states' 331420 joins. Defense and civilian metal buyers can both sit in the file; the extract does not label them.
Kentucky federal spending and Kentucky industries place 331420 among other codes. NAICS 331420 is the national catalog line. All spending ties indexes other industry-by-state pairs. Mixing those shelves would invent a share of Kentucky primary-metal processing the packet never computed. The $68,883,770.82 figure is the tagged pair only.
Where the 331420 x Kentucky overlay lives
Start with Kentucky federal spending for statewide context and NAICS 331420 for the nationwide industry listing. Kentucky industries lists other codes with Kentucky place of performance. All spending ties is the shelf for other NAICS x state pairs on the same obligation metric. Eighty-two awards are tagged rows, not a mills census. Names behind the rows are not in this packet.
Readers who need a different industry or a different state should leave this URL rather than adding numbers by hand. The $68,883,770.82 figure is the tagged NAICS 331420 × Kentucky pair only. USAspending.gov remains the source; SpendingVault republishes the join. Place of performance is a geography tag on awards, not proof that every dollar stayed inside Kentucky after obligation. If a later extract revises the rollup, this page's facts will be stale until the packet is rebuilt. Do not annualize $68,883,770.82 into a per-year run rate: no fiscal year is in the facts.
How to read the Kentucky × NAICS 331420 pair
A ties page exists because two tables meet. One table is the industry code (NAICS 331420). The other is place of performance as Kentucky. The headline $68,883,770.82 is the obligation sum on that intersection. It is not a forecast, not a budget request, and not an outlay. It is also not a claim that NAICS 331420 caused Kentucky's economy to grow, or that Kentucky caused NAICS 331420 awards to exist. Correlation between geography and a catalog code is the join — nothing more.
Use the internal links to step off this pair: the statewide spending shelf, the national industry listing, the state's other industry pages, and the ties index. Each of those pages uses the same obligation metric unless a page says otherwise. If you need award-level names, open the overlay or the stored table rather than treating this narrative as a recipient directory. If you need a different metric — outlays, current-year only, or a different geography — that metric is not in this packet.
