Department of State federal obligations in Georgia

State awards tagged to Georgia

Department of State as awarding agency, Georgia as place-of-performance: 186 records summing to $461,872,099.09. 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. An Atlanta-coded award from another agency is not this cell.

One hundred eighty-six awards is a mid-thin State book: more rows than Arkansas’s 19-award cell, still far from a USDA-style flood. Unique recipients are unpublished. Do not read 186 as 186 unique passport wait times, CDC grants, or unique posts. The overlay 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.

Hartsfield-Jackson visa folklore is unpublished. $461,872,099.09 is not an airport ledger. Correlation is not causation: Georgia did not “cause” $461,872,099.09 by existing as a large or small place. Population and outcome scores are not packet facts. The join is 019 × GA only.

CDC and State are different agencies

$461,872,099.09 does not measure passport wait times, CDC grants, or unique posts. Those series are not USAspending fields on this aggregate. The cell sums award obligations with awarding-agency code 019 and a GA place-of-performance tag.

Do not treat 186 awards as a census of passport wait times, CDC grants, or unique posts. Parent hubs are supposed to be larger than this pair. If Georgia federal spending or Department of State matched $461,872,099.09 and 186, the join would be pointless. Use the overlay when both keys must stay on. Florida, Alabama, and South Carolina State joins are other pairs, not addends.

Georgia, not an Atlanta-campus 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. An Atlanta-coded award from another agency is not this cell. Recipient address can differ from that state tag.

Hartsfield-Jackson visa folklore is unpublished. $461,872,099.09 is not an airport ledger. This packet does not split $461,872,099.09 by city, county, or named facility. 186 awards stay statewide. A county table would be a different extract.

Award stock versus consular draws

Even a thick or thin file records obligations, not necessarily outlays. $461,872,099.09 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 186-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 $461,872,099.09. Sharing a state with State Dept does not mean campaign donations funded these awards.

Citing State in Georgia

Cite USAspending.gov: Department of State (agency 019) obligated $461,872,099.09 on 186 awards coded to Georgia. Name both sides. Keep “obligations.” Do not relabel the total as passport wait times, CDC grants, or unique 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 019 parent without the GA filter. All spending ties indexes other pairs. Do not add those parents into $461,872,099.09.

A usable footnote names Department of State, Georgia, $461,872,099.09, and 186. The compact headline $461.9 million is that same dollar total rounded. It is not a second extract. The implied mean near $2.48 million is $461,872,099.09 divided by 186. Means are not medians. USAspending.gov remains the originating system.

Questions

How much has the Department of State obligated in Georgia?

USAspending.gov records $461,872,099.09 across 186 awards with awarding agency 019 and a Georgia tag.

Is $461,872,099.09 a measure of passport wait times, CDC grants, or unique posts?

No. The packet publishes $461,872,099.09 and 186 awards for agency 019 inside GA coding. Those other series are unpublished here. Unique recipients are unpublished. Quote the dollar total and the award count together. Obligations are not outlays.

Why does this State Dept file have 186 awards?

That is the award-record count for 019 × GA. Combined with $461,872,099.09, the average is about $2.48 million. Modifications and repeat instruments add rows. 186 is not unique passport wait times, CDC grants, or unique posts. Later ingests can revise the count. Prefer the overlay if the table moved.
