Department of Homeland Security federal obligations in Delaware

Agency 070 meeting Delaware

Department of Homeland Security as awarding agency, Delaware as place-of-performance: 148 records summing to $402,251,367.56. A Department of Homeland Security award coded outside DE is out. An award in Delaware from a different awarding agency is out even if the topic sounds related. Delaware (DE) excludes Maryland, Pennsylvania, and New Jersey. A Wilmington-coded award with a Pennsylvania place-of-performance tag is a different cell.

148 awards against $402,251,367.56 is a 148-award homeland-security file on a small Atlantic state. Unique recipients are unpublished. Do not read 148 as 148 unique disaster declarations, named incidents, or component headcounts. Department of Homeland Security in Delaware is the both-keys table. Delaware federal spending is the all-agency state hub. Department of Homeland Security is the agency book without an DE filter. All spending ties lists other joins.

Component names such as FEMA, CBP, or Coast Guard are not packet fields on this aggregate. The code is 070. Correlation is not causation: Delaware did not cause $402,251,367.56 by existing as a large or small place. Population and outcome scores are not packet facts. The join is 070 × DE only.

Preparedness folklore is not a packet field

$402,251,367.56 does not measure disaster declarations, named incidents, or component headcounts. Those series are not USAspending fields on this aggregate. The cell sums award obligations with awarding-agency code 070 and an DE place-of-performance tag.

Do not treat 148 awards as a census of disaster declarations, named incidents, or component headcounts. Parent hubs are supposed to be larger than this pair. If Delaware federal spending or Department of Homeland Security matched $402,251,367.56 and 148, the join would be pointless. Use the overlay when both keys must stay on. Neighboring-state DHS joins are other pairs, not addends.

Delaware, not a Wilmington-only map

Place of performance DE is a geography tag on the award, not a metro list and not a commuting zone. Delaware (DE) excludes Maryland, Pennsylvania, and New Jersey. A Wilmington-coded award with a Pennsylvania place-of-performance tag is a different cell. Recipient address can differ from that state tag.

This packet does not split $402,251,367.56 by city, county, or named facility. 148 awards stay statewide. A county table would be a different extract. Campaign-finance filings do not fund these USAspending obligations.

One hundred forty-eight DHS obligations

Even a thick or thin file records obligations, not necessarily outlays. $402,251,367.56 can include amounts that pay on a later schedule. Citing it as cash already sent in Delaware confuses two concepts. Deobligations and upward adjustments both move the total.

Delaware’s own budget is a different ledger. Mixing it with the 148 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 $402,251,367.56. Sharing a geography with Department of Homeland Security does not mean FEC donations funded these awards.

Citing DHS in Delaware

Cite USAspending.gov: Department of Homeland Security (agency 070) obligated $402,251,367.56 on 148 awards coded to Delaware. Name both sides. Keep “obligations.” Do not relabel the total as disaster declarations, named incidents, or component headcounts.

Prefer Department of Homeland Security in Delaware if the overlay has refreshed after an ingest. Delaware federal spending still includes every other awarding agency tagged to DE. Department of Homeland Security is the 070 parent without the DE filter. All spending ties indexes other pairs. Do not add those parents into $402,251,367.56.

A usable footnote names Department of Homeland Security, Delaware, $402,251,367.56, and 148. The compact headline $402.3M is that same dollar total rounded. It is not a second extract. The implied mean near $2,717,914.65 is $402,251,367.56 divided by 148. Means are not medians. USAspending.gov remains the originating system.
