Department of Defense federal obligations in Wyoming

Agency 097 meeting Wyoming

Department of Defense as awarding agency, Wyoming as place-of-performance: 5,513 records summing to $1,048,879,162.95. A Department of Defense award coded outside WY is out. An award in Wyoming from a different awarding agency is out even if the topic sounds related. Wyoming (WY) excludes Colorado, Utah, Idaho, Montana, South Dakota, and Nebraska. A Cheyenne-coded award with a Colorado place-of-performance tag is a different cell.

5,513 awards against $1,048,879,162.95 is a 5,513-award defense file on a small-population state. Unique recipients are unpublished. Do not read 5513 as 5513 unique troop counts, named installations, or weapons inventories. Department of Defense in Wyoming is the both-keys table. Wyoming federal spending is the all-agency state hub. Department of Defense is the agency book without an WY filter. All spending ties lists other joins.

Service branches are not split on this aggregate. Unique contractors are unpublished. Do not invent them. Correlation is not causation: Wyoming did not cause $1,048,879,162.95 by existing as a large or small place. Population and outcome scores are not packet facts. The join is 097 × WY only.

Installation folklore is not a packet field

$1,048,879,162.95 does not measure troop counts, named installations, or weapons inventories. Those series are not USAspending fields on this aggregate. The cell sums award obligations with awarding-agency code 097 and an WY place-of-performance tag.

Do not treat 5513 awards as a census of troop counts, named installations, or weapons inventories. Parent hubs are supposed to be larger than this pair. If Wyoming federal spending or Department of Defense matched $1,048,879,162.95 and 5513, the join would be pointless. Use the overlay when both keys must stay on. Neighboring-state DOD joins are other pairs, not addends.

Wyoming, not a single-base map

Place of performance WY is a geography tag on the award, not a metro list and not a commuting zone. Wyoming (WY) excludes Colorado, Utah, Idaho, Montana, South Dakota, and Nebraska. A Cheyenne-coded award with a Colorado place-of-performance tag is a different cell. Recipient address can differ from that state tag.

This packet does not split $1,048,879,162.95 by city, county, or named facility. 5513 awards stay statewide. A county table would be a different extract. Campaign-finance filings do not fund these USAspending obligations.

Five thousand five hundred thirteen obligations

Even a thick or thin file records obligations, not necessarily outlays. $1,048,879,162.95 can include amounts that pay on a later schedule. Citing it as cash already sent in Wyoming confuses two concepts. Deobligations and upward adjustments both move the total.

Wyoming’s own budget is a different ledger. Mixing it with the 5,513 awards USAspending file leaves this series. No fiscal year is published in this packet, so this page does not invent one. Keep the obligation label on $1,048,879,162.95. Sharing a geography with Department of Defense does not mean FEC donations funded these awards.

Citing DOD in Wyoming

Cite USAspending.gov: Department of Defense (agency 097) obligated $1,048,879,162.95 on 5,513 awards coded to Wyoming. Name both sides. Keep “obligations.” Do not relabel the total as troop counts, named installations, or weapons inventories.

Prefer Department of Defense in Wyoming if the overlay has refreshed after an ingest. Wyoming federal spending still includes every other awarding agency tagged to WY. Department of Defense is the 097 parent without the WY filter. All spending ties indexes other pairs. Do not add those parents into $1,048,879,162.95.

A usable footnote names Department of Defense, Wyoming, $1,048,879,162.95, and 5513. The compact headline $1.05B is that same dollar total rounded. It is not a second extract. The implied mean near $190,255.61 is $1,048,879,162.95 divided by 5513. Means are not medians. USAspending.gov remains the originating system.

A small-population state still carries a thick DOD file

Wyoming’s DOD overlay is 5513 awards totaling $1,048,879,162.95. Missile-field and installation folklore are unpublished. Idaho’s DOD page in this slice is thicker still at 19,075 awards; it is not an addend. Unique contractors are unpublished.
