Department of State (072) federal obligations in Georgia
15 Department of State awards tagged to Georgia sum to $75,165,993.66 on USAspending.gov. Awarding-agency 072 and Georgia (GA) are the pair.

Fifteen 072 awards tagged to Georgia
Department of State as awarding agency, Georgia as place-of-performance: 15 records summing to $75,165,993.66. A Department of State award coded outside GA is out. An award in Georgia from a different awarding agency is out even if the topic sounds related. Georgia (GA) excludes Florida, Alabama, South Carolina, Tennessee, and North Carolina. A Jacksonville-coded award is Florida even if the traveler lives in South Georgia.
Fifteen awards against $75,165,993.66 is a thin 072 file: near Washington’s 17-row 072 cell, far thinner than Pennsylvania’s 445-row 019 book. Unique recipients are unpublished. Do not read 15 as 15 unique visa counts, passport volumes, or named overseas posts. Department of State in Georgia is the both-keys table. Georgia federal spending is the all-agency state hub. Department of State is the agency book without a GA filter. All spending ties lists other joins.
This slug is the Georgia × agency-072 duplicate. Code 072 is the disambiguator. Shared display names do not merge 072 with 019. Named posts are unpublished. This slug is the Georgia × agency-072 duplicate. Code 072 belongs in the title and heading. Shared display names do not merge 072 with another awarding code that uses the same agency label. Correlation is not causation: Georgia did not cause $75,165,993.66 by existing as a large or small place. Population and outcome scores are not packet facts. The join is 072 × GA only.
Code 072 is the Georgia disambiguator
$75,165,993.66 does not measure visa counts, passport volumes, or named overseas posts. Those series are not USAspending fields on this aggregate. The cell sums award obligations with awarding-agency code 072 and a GA place-of-performance tag.
Do not treat 15 awards as a census of visa counts, passport volumes, or named overseas posts. Parent hubs are supposed to be larger than this pair. If Georgia federal spending or Department of State matched $75,165,993.66 and 15, the join would be pointless. Use the overlay when both keys must stay on. Florida, Alabama, and South Carolina State Dept 072 joins are other pairs, not addends.
Georgia statewide, not an Atlanta-consular map
Place of performance GA is a geography tag on the award, not a metro list and not a commuting zone. Georgia (GA) excludes Florida, Alabama, South Carolina, Tennessee, and North Carolina. A Jacksonville-coded award is Florida even if the traveler lives in South Georgia. Recipient address can differ from that state tag.
This packet does not split $75,165,993.66 by city, county, or named facility. 15 awards stay statewide. A county table would be a different extract. Campaign-finance filings do not fund these USAspending obligations.
A thin 072 file still records obligations
Even a thick or thin file records obligations, not necessarily outlays. $75,165,993.66 can include amounts that pay on a later schedule. Citing it as cash already sent in Georgia confuses two concepts. Deobligations and upward adjustments both move the total.
Georgia’s own budget is a different ledger. Mixing it with the 15-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 $75,165,993.66.
Citing State Dept 072 × Georgia
Cite USAspending.gov: Department of State (agency 072) obligated $75,165,993.66 on 15 awards coded to Georgia. Name both sides. Keep “obligations.” Do not relabel the total as visa counts, passport volumes, or named overseas posts.
Prefer Department of State in Georgia if the overlay has refreshed after an ingest. Georgia federal spending still includes every other awarding agency tagged to GA. Department of State is the 072 parent without the GA filter. All spending ties indexes other pairs. Do not add those parents into $75,165,993.66.
A usable footnote names Department of State, Georgia, $75,165,993.66, and 15. The compact headline $75.2M is that same dollar total rounded. It is not a second extract. The implied mean near $5.01 million is $75,165,993.66 divided by 15. Means are not medians. USAspending.gov remains the originating system. Post names, visa counts, and contractor identities are unpublished on this packet.
