Department of Labor federal obligations in Hawaii
Department of Labor shows $515,305,519.74 in USAspending.gov obligations coded to Hawaii, across 108 awards. Awarding-agency 1601 and Hawaii (HI) are the pair. 108 awards against $515,305,519.74 is a 108-award labor file, not a claims census. The implied mean is about $4,771,347.41 per award — a quotient of two packet facts, not a typical invoice. USAspending.gov is the source. Amounts are obligations, not outlays.
Key figures

- The pair is awarding-agency 1601 × place-of-performance HI.
- Amounts are obligations, not outlays; no fiscal year is in this packet.
- The implied mean near $4,771,347.41 is $515,305,519.74 divided by 108, not a typical award.
- The join does not name contractors and does not measure unemployment claims, training enrollments, or named job sites.
Agency 1601 overlapping Hawaii
Department of Labor as awarding agency, Hawaii as place-of-performance: 108 awards summing to $515,305,519.74. A Department of Labor award coded outside HI is out. An award in Hawaii from a different awarding agency is out even if the topic sounds related. Hawaii (HI) excludes other Pacific and West Coast state keys such as California and Alaska, stored separately. A Honolulu-coded award with a California place-of-performance tag is a different cell.
108 awards against $515,305,519.74 is a 108-award labor file, not a claims census. Unique recipients are unpublished. Do not read 108 as 108 unique unemployment claims, training enrollments, or named job sites. Department of Labor in Hawaii is the both-keys table. Hawaii federal spending is the all-agency state hub. Department of Labor is the agency book without a HI filter. All spending ties lists other joins.
Awarding-agency 1601 is the Department of Labor key on this overlay, not a two-digit 016 alias invented here. State UI trust funds are a different ledger. Unique training vendors are unpublished. Correlation is not causation: Hawaii did not cause $515,305,519.74 by existing as a large or small place. Population and outcome scores are not packet facts. The join is 1601 × HI only.
Workforce folklore is not a packet field
$515,305,519.74 does not measure unemployment claims, training enrollments, or named job sites. Those series are not USAspending fields on this aggregate. The cell sums award obligations with awarding-agency code 1601 and an HI place-of-performance tag.
Do not treat 108 awards as a census of unemployment claims, training enrollments, or named job sites. Parent hubs are supposed to be larger than this pair. If Hawaii federal spending or Department of Labor matched $515,305,519.74 and 108, the join would be pointless. Use the overlay when both keys must stay on. Neighboring-state DOL joins are other pairs, not addends.
Hawaii statewide, not an Oahu-only map
Place of performance HI is a geography tag on the award, not a metro list and not a commuting zone. Hawaii (HI) excludes other Pacific and West Coast state keys such as California and Alaska, stored separately. A Honolulu-coded award with a California place-of-performance tag is a different cell. Recipient address can differ from that state tag.
This packet does not split $515,305,519.74 by city, county, or named facility. 108 awards stay statewide. A county table would be a different extract. Campaign-finance filings do not fund these USAspending obligations.
One hundred eight obligations
Even a thick or thin file records obligations, not necessarily outlays. $515,305,519.74 can include amounts that pay on a later schedule. Citing it as cash already sent in Hawaii confuses two concepts. Deobligations and upward adjustments both move the total.
Hawaii’s own budget is a different ledger. Mixing it with the 108 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 $515,305,519.74.
Citing DOL in Hawaii
Cite USAspending.gov: Department of Labor (agency 1601) obligated $515,305,519.74 on 108 awards coded to Hawaii. Name both sides. Keep “obligations.” Do not relabel the total as unemployment claims, training enrollments, or named job sites.
Prefer Department of Labor in Hawaii if the overlay has refreshed after an ingest. Hawaii federal spending still includes every other awarding agency tagged to HI. Department of Labor is the 1601 parent without the HI filter. All spending ties indexes other pairs. Do not add those parents into $515,305,519.74.
A usable footnote names Department of Labor, Hawaii, $515,305,519.74, and 108. The compact headline $515.3M is that same dollar total rounded. It is not a second extract. The implied mean near $4,771,347.41 is $515,305,519.74 divided by 108. Means are not medians. USAspending.gov remains the originating system.
