Department of Homeland Security federal obligations in Connecticut

DHS awards tagged to Connecticut

Department of Homeland Security as awarding agency, Connecticut as place-of-performance: 1,174 records summing to $1,653,112,692.96. A Department of Homeland Security award coded outside CT is out. An award in Connecticut from a different awarding agency is out even if the topic sounds related. Connecticut (CT) excludes New York, Massachusetts, Rhode Island, and New Jersey. A New York-coded award is NY even if the port story is the same Sound.

One thousand one hundred seventy-four awards is a moderate DHS book for this dollar scale. Unique recipients are unpublished. Do not read 1,174 as 1,174 unique disaster declarations, unique FEMA applicants, or named sectors. The overlay Department of Homeland Security in Connecticut is the both-keys table. Connecticut federal spending is the all-agency state hub. Department of Homeland Security is the agency book without a CT filter. All spending ties lists other joins.

FEMA, CBP, Coast Guard, and other 070 components can share the cell. This packet does not isolate a declaration or a sector office. Correlation is not causation: Connecticut did not cause $1,653,112,692.96 by existing as a large or small place. Population and outcome scores are not packet facts. The join is 070 × CT only.

Not a disaster or Coast Guard census

$1,653,112,692.96 does not measure disaster declarations, unique FEMA applicants, or named sectors. Those series are not USAspending fields on this aggregate. The cell sums award obligations with awarding-agency code 070 and a CT place-of-performance tag.

Do not treat 1,174 awards as a census of disaster declarations, unique FEMA applicants, or named sectors. Parent hubs are supposed to be larger than this pair. If Connecticut federal spending or Department of Homeland Security matched $1,653,112,692.96 and 1,174, the join would be pointless. Use the overlay when both keys must stay on. New York, Massachusetts, and Rhode Island DHS joins are other pairs, not addends.

Connecticut, not a Long Island Sound rollup

Place of performance CT is a geography tag on the award, not a metro list and not a commuting zone. Connecticut (CT) excludes New York, Massachusetts, Rhode Island, and New Jersey. A New York-coded award is NY even if the port story is the same Sound. Recipient address can differ from that state tag.

FEMA, CBP, Coast Guard, and other 070 components can share the cell. This packet does not isolate a declaration or a sector office. This packet does not split $1,653,112,692.96 by city, county, or named facility. 1,174 awards stay statewide. A county table would be a different extract.

Moderate file, still commitments

Even a thick or thin file records obligations, not necessarily outlays. $1,653,112,692.96 can include amounts that pay on a later schedule. Citing it as cash already sent in Connecticut confuses two concepts. Deobligations and upward adjustments both move the total.

Connecticut’s own budget is a different ledger. Mixing it with the 1,174-award 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 $1,653,112,692.96.

Citing DHS in Connecticut

Cite USAspending.gov: Department of Homeland Security (agency 070) obligated $1,653,112,692.96 on 1,174 awards coded to Connecticut. Name both sides. Keep “obligations.” Do not relabel the total as disaster declarations, unique FEMA applicants, or named sectors.

Prefer Department of Homeland Security in Connecticut if the overlay has refreshed after an ingest. Connecticut federal spending still includes every other awarding agency tagged to CT. Department of Homeland Security is the 070 parent without the CT filter. All spending ties indexes other pairs. Do not add those parents into $1,653,112,692.96.

A usable footnote names Department of Homeland Security, Connecticut, $1,653,112,692.96, and 1,174. The compact headline $1.65 billion is that same dollar total rounded. It is not a second extract. The implied mean near $1.41 million is $1,653,112,692.96 divided by 1,174. Means are not medians. USAspending.gov remains the originating system.
