  • 118 records, about $1,174,237.55 each as a mean.

Department of Labor and South Dakota as a join

Department of Labor and South Dakota share one USAspending.gov cell. $138,560,031.46 is the obligation sum on that cell. It is not every federal dollar in South Dakota, not Department of Labor's nationwide book, and not cash already paid. Workforce, unemployment-insurance, and wage labels are ordinary speech, not columns.

The 118 figure is mid-size. High row counts often mark many small actions; low row counts often mark a few large instruments. This packet publishes neither a type mix nor unique workforce boards or contractors.

118 rows behind the South Dakota Labor dollar

Do not annualize $138,560,031.46 into a multi-year South Dakota Department of Labor budget. No fiscal year is in the facts. Do not treat 118 as unique workforce boards or contractors.

About $1,174,237.55 is $138,560,031.46 divided by 118. Repeat that it is a ratio whenever the mean is quoted beside a typical-workforce or labor-program award story.

Rapid City is not a published place-of-performance slice

Department of Labor is Department of Labor without a state filter. South Dakota federal spending is South Dakota without an agency filter. This slug is the intersection. Citing the nationwide DOL book as if it were South Dakota's $138,560,031.46 cell is a misread of the join.

No metro split of Sioux Falls, Rapid City, and Pierre is published here. Awards coded to North Dakota, Minnesota, Iowa, Nebraska, or Wyoming are outside this cell even if mail is handled in Sioux Falls. The overlay path already encodes both the state tag and agency 1601.

The source is USAspending.gov, not a UI dashboard

$138,560,031.46 records commitments tagged to Department of Labor and South Dakota. Payments, recoveries, and cancellations would live in other fields. This extract does not publish those fields.

118 actions can include modifications that change a prior obligation. That is why a record count is not a unique-project census. Use Department of Labor in South Dakota for the live table. Agency 1601 is the awarding-agency key stored on that overlay.

FEC filings do not fund this cell

The join is descriptive. $138,560,031.46 does not prove that South Dakota received too much or too little Department of Labor money, and it does not prove that Department of Labor activity caused local outcomes. No performance metric is in the packet.

Campaign-finance filings do not fund this USAspending cell. Department of Labor obligations in South Dakota and FEC receipts that mention similar words are separate public records. This page does not merge them. Unique workforce boards or contractors are unpublished here, so none are invented.

Reusable facts for Labor in South Dakota

Department of Labor in South Dakota remains the place to verify the live rows. All spending ties is an index of joins, not a hidden total that already includes $138,560,031.46. Place-of-performance South Dakota is statewide; it does not split Sioux Falls, Rapid City, and Pierre. Neighbor-coded activity in North Dakota, Minnesota, Iowa, Nebraska, or Wyoming stays out even if mail is handled in Sioux Falls. Correlation is not causation. Workforce, unemployment-insurance, and wage folklore can be a legitimate research question on another page. Here it is labeled folklore because the packet has no NAICS, CFDA, or program column. Prairie, black-hills, and missouri-river folklore is the same kind of reader path: useful for search, unused as math. Agency 1601 on a different state's overlay is a sibling join, not a remainder that must add to a national DOL budget on this page. South Dakota's $138,560,031.46 cell stands alone. Do not subtract it from Department of Labor and call the difference 'South Dakota versus everywhere else' without a published national total in this packet — there is none. Department of Labor is the awarding-agency label stored on the South Dakota overlay; the numeric key is 1601. Readers who only remember the short name DOL still need both the state tag and the agency tag before quoting $138,560,031.46. The 118 figure is not a count of unique workforce boards or contractors and is not a count of distinct DOL programs. Modifications can add rows without adding new vendors. That is another reason the mean of about $1,174,237.55 is not a typical workforce or labor-program award. Original filings remain on USAspending.gov. This file copies overlayTarget /states/sd/agencies/1601/ and canonicalPath /ties/department-of-labor-in-south-dakota/ from the packet. It does not add a fiscal year, a contractor, or an FEC dollar. If the live overlay later disagrees with $138,560,031.46 or 118, trust the table and treat this prose as dated to the extract. Until then, the reusable facts are $138,560,031.46, 118 awards, agency 1601, Department of Labor, South Dakota (SD), and the obligation unit.
