Department of State (072) federal obligations in Michigan

$51,057,951.84 is the USAspending.gov obligation total for Department of State awards tagged to Michigan, covering 5 awards. Agency 072 × MI is the join. 5 awards against $51,057,951.84 is a five-award foreign-affairs file for agency 072. Dividing those two facts yields about $10,211,590.37 as a mean, not a median and not a typical invoice. No fiscal year is published in this packet. Obligations are not outlays.

Awarding-agency 072 meeting Michigan

Department of State as awarding agency, Michigan as place-of-performance: 5 records summing to $51,057,951.84. A Department of State award coded outside MI is out. An award in Michigan from a different awarding agency is out even if the topic sounds related. Michigan (MI) excludes Ohio, Indiana, and Wisconsin. A Detroit-coded award with an Ohio place-of-performance tag is a different cell.

5 awards against $51,057,951.84 is a five-award foreign-affairs file for agency 072. Unique recipients are unpublished. Do not read 5 as 5 unique visa counts, passport volumes, or named overseas posts. Department of State in Michigan is the both-keys table. Michigan federal spending is the all-agency state hub. Department of State is the agency book without an MI filter. All spending ties lists other joins.

This slug is the Michigan × agency-072 duplicate. Code 072 is the disambiguator. Shared display names do not merge 072 with 019. Five rows can still post a large obligation. Correlation is not causation: Michigan did not cause $51,057,951.84 by existing as a large or small place. Population and outcome scores are not packet facts. The join is 072 × MI only. This slug is the Michigan × agency-072 duplicate. Code 072 is the disambiguator. Shared display names do not merge 072 with a different Department of State code.

Department of State 072 is not code 019

$51,057,951.84 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 an MI place-of-performance tag.

Do not treat 5 awards as a census of visa counts, passport volumes, or named overseas posts. Parent hubs are supposed to be larger than this pair. If Michigan federal spending or Department of State matched $51,057,951.84 and 5, the join would be pointless. Use the overlay when both keys must stay on. Neighboring-state State Dept joins are other pairs, not addends.

Michigan, not a Detroit-only map

Place of performance MI is a geography tag on the award, not a metro list and not a commuting zone. Michigan (MI) excludes Ohio, Indiana, and Wisconsin. A Menominee-coded award with a Wisconsin place-of-performance tag is a different cell. Recipient address can differ from that state tag.

This packet does not split $51,057,951.84 by city, county, or named facility. 5 awards stay statewide. A county table would be a different extract. Campaign-finance filings do not fund these USAspending obligations.

Five obligations

Even a thick or thin file records obligations, not necessarily outlays. $51,057,951.84 can include amounts that pay on a later schedule. Citing it as cash already sent in Michigan confuses two concepts. Deobligations and upward adjustments both move the total.

Michigan’s own budget is a different ledger. Mixing it with the 5 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 $51,057,951.84. Sharing a geography with Department of State does not mean FEC donations funded these awards.

Citing Department of State 072 in Michigan

Cite USAspending.gov: Department of State (agency 072) obligated $51,057,951.84 on 5 awards coded to Michigan. Name both sides. Keep “obligations.” Do not relabel the total as visa counts, passport volumes, or named overseas posts.

Prefer Department of State in Michigan if the overlay has refreshed after an ingest. Michigan federal spending still includes every other awarding agency tagged to MI. Department of State is the 072 parent without the MI filter. All spending ties indexes other pairs. Do not add those parents into $51,057,951.84.

A usable footnote names Department of State, Michigan, $51,057,951.84, and 5. The compact headline $51.1M is that same dollar total rounded. It is not a second extract. The implied mean near $10,211,590.37 is $51,057,951.84 divided by 5. Means are not medians. USAspending.gov remains the originating system.

A duplicate slug keyed to agency 072

Michigan’s State Dept overlay is 5 awards totaling $51,057,951.84. This slug is the Michigan × agency-072 duplicate. Code 072 is the disambiguator. Shared display names do not merge 072 with 019. Five rows can still post a large obligation. Adding parent hubs into $51,057,951.84 would invent a combined Michigan total. Keep 072 × MI as the pair. No fiscal year is published in this packet. Keep the obligation label on $51,057,951.84. Unique recipients stay unpublished.
