Department of Labor federal obligations in South Carolina

Awarding-agency 1601 meeting South Carolina

Department of Labor as awarding agency, South Carolina as place-of-performance: 122 records summing to $608,227,484. A Department of Labor award coded outside SC is out. An award in South Carolina from a different awarding agency is out even if the topic sounds related. South Carolina (SC) excludes North Carolina and Georgia. A Charleston-coded award with a Georgia place-of-performance tag is a different cell.

122 awards against $608,227,484 is a 122-award Labor file on awarding-agency 1601, thin on rows against a large dollar total. Unique recipients are unpublished. Do not read 122 as 122 unique jobs created, named job centers, or unemployment-insurance claims. Department of Labor in South Carolina is the both-keys table. South Carolina federal spending is the all-agency state hub. Department of Labor is the agency book without an SC filter. All spending ties lists other joins.

Code 1601 is the awarding-agency key on this overlay. Workforce-board folklore is unpublished. Do not invent named One-Stop centers as extra dollars. Correlation is not causation: South Carolina did not cause $608,227,484 by existing as a large or small place. Population and outcome scores are not packet facts. The join is 1601 × SC only.

Labor folklore is not a jobs census

$608,227,484 does not measure jobs created, named job centers, or unemployment-insurance claims. Those series are not USAspending fields on this aggregate. The cell sums award obligations with awarding-agency code 1601 and an SC place-of-performance tag.

Do not treat 122 awards as a census of jobs created, named job centers, or unemployment-insurance claims. Parent hubs are supposed to be larger than this pair. If South Carolina federal spending or Department of Labor matched $608,227,484 and 122, the join would be pointless. Use the overlay when both keys must stay on. Neighboring-state Labor joins are other pairs, not addends.

South Carolina, not a Charleston-Columbia map

Place of performance SC is a geography tag on the award, not a metro list and not a commuting zone. South Carolina (SC) excludes North Carolina and Georgia. A Charleston-coded award with a Georgia place-of-performance tag is a different cell. Recipient address can differ from that state tag.

This packet does not split $608,227,484 by city, county, or named facility. 122 awards stay statewide. A county table would be a different extract. Campaign-finance filings do not fund these USAspending obligations.

One hundred twenty-two obligations

Even a thick or thin file records obligations, not necessarily outlays. $608,227,484 can include amounts that pay on a later schedule. Citing it as cash already sent in South Carolina confuses two concepts. Deobligations and upward adjustments both move the total.

South Carolina’s own budget is a different ledger. Mixing it with the 122 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 $608,227,484. Sharing a geography with Department of Labor does not mean FEC donations funded these awards.

Citing Labor in South Carolina

Cite USAspending.gov: Department of Labor (agency 1601) obligated $608,227,484 on 122 awards coded to South Carolina. Name both sides. Keep “obligations.” Do not relabel the total as jobs created, named job centers, or unemployment-insurance claims.

Prefer Department of Labor in South Carolina if the overlay has refreshed after an ingest. South Carolina federal spending still includes every other awarding agency tagged to SC. Department of Labor is the 1601 parent without the SC filter. All spending ties indexes other pairs. Do not add those parents into $608,227,484.

A usable footnote names Department of Labor, South Carolina, $608,227,484, and 122. The compact headline $608.2M is that same dollar total rounded. It is not a second extract. The implied mean near $4,985,471.18 is $608,227,484 divided by 122. Means are not medians. USAspending.gov remains the originating system.
