Department of Energy federal obligations in Wyoming
Department of Energy shows $248,504,398.86 in USAspending.gov obligations coded to Wyoming, across 87 awards. Awarding-agency 089 and Wyoming (WY) are the pair. 87 awards against $248,504,398.86 is an 87-award energy file, mid-size in records against a $248.5 million cell. The implied mean is about $2,856,372.40 per award — a quotient of two packet facts, not a typical invoice. USAspending.gov is the source. Amounts are obligations, not outlays.
Key figures
- Department of Energy obligated $248,504,398.86 in Wyoming across 87 awards (USAspending.gov).
- The pair is awarding-agency 089 × place-of-performance WY.
- Amounts are obligations, not outlays; no fiscal year is in this packet.
- The implied mean near $2,856,372.40 is $248,504,398.86 divided by 87, not a typical award.
- The join does not name contractors and does not measure named facilities, megawatt figures, or well counts.
Department 089 overlapping Wyoming
Department of Energy as awarding agency, Wyoming as place-of-performance: 87 records summing to $248,504,398.86. A Department of Energy 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 Montana, Idaho, Utah, Colorado, Nebraska, and South Dakota. A Cheyenne-coded award with a Colorado place-of-performance tag is a different cell.
87 awards against $248,504,398.86 is an 87-award energy file, mid-size in records against a $248.5 million cell. Unique recipients are unpublished. Do not read 87 as 87 unique named facilities, megawatt figures, or well counts. Department of Energy in Wyoming is the both-keys table. Wyoming federal spending is the all-agency state hub. Department of Energy is the agency book without an WY filter. All spending ties lists other joins.
Named facilities, megawatt figures, and well counts stay unpublished. Do not invent contractor names. Correlation is not causation: Wyoming did not cause $248,504,398.86 by existing as a large or small place. Population and outcome scores are not packet facts. The join is 089 × WY only.
DOE is not a megawatt census
$248,504,398.86 does not measure named facilities, megawatt figures, or well counts. Those series are not USAspending fields on this aggregate. The cell sums award obligations with awarding-agency code 089 and an WY place-of-performance tag.
Do not treat 87 awards as a census of named facilities, megawatt figures, or well counts. Parent hubs are supposed to be larger than this pair. If Wyoming federal spending or Department of Energy matched $248,504,398.86 and 87, the join would be pointless. Use the overlay when both keys must stay on. Neighboring-state DOE joins are other pairs, not addends.
Wyoming, not a coal-basin folklore map
Place of performance WY is a geography tag on the award, not a metro list and not a commuting zone. Wyoming (WY) excludes Montana, Idaho, Utah, Colorado, Nebraska, and South Dakota. A Jackson-coded award with an Idaho place-of-performance tag is a different cell. Recipient address can differ from that state tag.
This packet does not split $248,504,398.86 by city, county, or named facility. 87 awards stay statewide. A county table would be a different extract. Campaign-finance filings do not fund these USAspending obligations.
Eighty-seven obligations
Even a thick or thin file records obligations, not necessarily outlays. $248,504,398.86 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 87 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 $248,504,398.86. Sharing a geography with Department of Energy does not mean FEC donations funded these awards.
Citing Department of Energy in Wyoming
Cite USAspending.gov: Department of Energy (agency 089) obligated $248,504,398.86 on 87 awards coded to Wyoming. Name both sides. Keep “obligations.” Do not relabel the total as named facilities, megawatt figures, or well counts.
Prefer Department of Energy in Wyoming if the overlay has refreshed after an ingest. Wyoming federal spending still includes every other awarding agency tagged to WY. Department of Energy is the 089 parent without the WY filter. All spending ties indexes other pairs. Do not add those parents into $248,504,398.86.
A usable footnote names Department of Energy, Wyoming, $248,504,398.86, and 87. The compact headline $248.5M is that same dollar total rounded. It is not a second extract. The implied mean near $2,856,372.40 is $248,504,398.86 divided by 87. Means are not medians. USAspending.gov remains the originating system.
Energy dollars without a facility roster
Wyoming’s DOE overlay is 87 awards totaling $248,504,398.86. Named facilities, megawatt figures, and well counts stay unpublished. Do not invent contractor names. Adding parent hubs into $248,504,398.86 would invent a combined Wyoming total. Keep 089 × WY as the pair. No fiscal year is published in this packet. Keep the obligation label on $248,504,398.86. Unique recipients stay unpublished. FEC filings are a different dataset.
