Department of the Interior obligations in Alaska At-Large District (AK-00)

A place-of-performance join: Interior × AK-00

Awarding agency 014 and congressional district AK-00 meet here. $1,952,097,264.29 is the USAspending.gov obligation sum on awards that carry both tags. It is not Department of the Interior's nationwide total, not every federal dollar coded to Alaska At-Large District (AK-00), and not an outlay register. The packet does not split Interior bureaus or contract versus assistance instruments. 2,839 is an action count: modifications and repeat awards add rows. Unique recipients are unpublished. This cell is not a park visitor count, a land-acre inventory, or a named-contractor file.

Dividing $1,952,097,264.29 by 2,839 yields about $687,600.30 per award on average. That ratio is two packet facts. It is not a typical contract, grant, or benefit line. 2,839 awards is a thick Interior file: orders, modifications, and repeat instruments multiply lines. Bureau splits are unpublished. Do not treat AK-00's 014 cell as a synonym for every Interior account nationwide. Open Alaska At-Large District for the district table without this agency filter, Department of the Interior for agency 014 without a AK-00 filter, Alaska federal spending for every awarding agency in the Alaska extract, and All spending ties for the rest of the join list. Quote those hubs as parents, not as addends to $1,952,097,264.29.

Department of the Interior as awarding agency, not as a named-vendor list

USAspending labels awarding agency 014 as Department of the Interior. That code produced $1,952,097,264.29 when crossed with Alaska At-Large District (AK-00) place of performance. The agency-wide 014 hub does not require AK-00 geography. The district hub does not require Interior. Only this tie applies both filters, which is why it cites 2,839 awards. The packet does not split Interior bureaus or contract versus assistance instruments.

Correlation is not causation: Alaska At-Large District (AK-00) did not cause $1,952,097,264.29 by existing as a large or small place. Population, outcome scores, and named facilities are not packet facts. The join is 014 × AK-00 only. This cell is not a park visitor count, a land-acre inventory, or a named-contractor file. Do not invent contractors or award recipients to fill the gap. Campaign donations on FEC tables do not fund this USAspending cell; the datasets are separate.

Place of performance for Alaska At-Large District (AK-00)

Alaska At-Large District (AK-00) on this join is a USAspending geography field, not a claim that every dollar was disbursed to residents of that district. Awards can list AK-00 while later work occurs elsewhere. Awards tagged to other Alaska districts belong on those ties even when the awarding agency is also 014. Alaska At-Large District (AK-00) is a numbered congressional place-of-performance code inside Alaska. Other Alaska districts are separate joins even when they reuse awarding-agency 014. Alaska At-Large District (AK-00) is the state's only voting House geography in this extract. DHS and Agriculture cells on the same AK-00 stamp are different awarding-agency joins.

Obligation math for this join

USAspending.gov records an obligation when the federal government commits funds on an award. $1,952,097,264.29 is that kind of sum for Department of the Interior inside AK-00 coding. Later deobligations, recoveries, or payment schedules can change what leaves the Treasury without this join rewriting itself into a cash register. Assistance and contract awards can share the same awarding-agency rollup; this packet does not split them. Net obligations can include downward adjustments. This page reports $1,952,097,264.29 as given.

Alaska's own budget is a separate ledger. Mixing it with the 2,839-row Interior cell leaves USAspending.gov. Treat 2,839 as award records in the aggregate, not unique vendors. Do not annualize without a year field in the packet. Do not per-capita or per-recipient the dollar total; those denominators are unpublished. The implied mean ($687,600.30) is a concentration statistic, not a typical AK-00 Interior payment.

If Alaska At-Large District or Department of the Interior has refreshed, prefer the live hub over this snapshot for current rows. The pair is not a park visitor count, a land-acre inventory, or a named-contractor file. 3.7% of $53,125,232,484.14 is the district share on this packet, not a performance score.

Using 3.7% and $687,600.30 without overclaiming

2,839 awards is a thick Interior file: orders, modifications, and repeat instruments multiply lines. Bureau splits are unpublished. An at-large stamp is still a place-of-performance code, not a claim that work stayed inside one borough. Awards can list AK-00 while later work occurs elsewhere. A large row count makes a program split tempting; the packet still does not supply one. A small row count makes a named-facility story tempting; the packet still does not name facilities or contractors. The implied mean (about $687,600.30) and the district share (3.7% of $53,125,232,484.14) are ratios of packet facts. Prefer Alaska At-Large District and Department of the Interior if the live tables moved.

Do not rank Alaska At-Large District (AK-00) as more Interior-dependent than neighboring districts on the strength of this cell alone. Neighboring geographies have their own 014 ties with different dollar totals, or no published 014 cell in this harvest. This snapshot holds $1,952,097,264.29 and 2,839 only. All spending ties is the index, not an addend. Obligations are not outlays. Correlation is not causation.
