How much Interior spending is coded to California 2nd District (CA-02)?

USAspending.gov lists $263,890,537.38 in Department of the Interior obligations across 499 awards with place of performance in California 2nd District (CA-02). Agency 014 × CA-02 is an obligation join, not an outlay and not California’s complete federal ledger. The cell is 4.3% of the district’s published total ($6,163,729,580.54). Unique recipients are unpublished. Average obligation is about $528,838.75, a ratio of those two facts only.

Does $263,890,537.38 include every Interior program in CA-02?

The packet publishes one awarding-agency rollup. The packet does not split Interior bureaus or contract versus assistance instruments. $263,890,537.38 is the combined obligation sum for agency 014 inside CA-02 coding. This page will not invent a program pie or name contractors. Open Department of the Interior and California 2nd District to inspect parent tables. 499 remains an action count, not a program count.

Is $263,890,537.38 cash already paid in California 2nd District (CA-02)?

No. Obligations are commitments recorded on USAspending.gov awards. Outlays — money that actually left the Treasury — are a different concept and are not this packet’s headline. Treating $263,890,537.38 as checks already cleared in California 2nd District (CA-02) confuses those terms. Later ingests can revise 499 awards. Prefer the live district and agency hubs if the tables moved.

Where is the live Interior–CA-02 table?

California 2nd District is the district parent and Department of the Interior is the agency parent. California federal spending covers California without the district×agency intersection as the headline. All spending ties lists other pairs. Those hubs are not addends. Keep both sides of the join when citing $263,890,537.38. Place of performance is CA-02. Obligations are not outlays.

Department of the Interior obligations in California 2nd District (CA-02)

USAspending.gov records $263,890,537.38 in Department of the Interior (agency 014) obligations with place of performance in California 2nd District (CA-02), across 499 awards. Four hundred ninety-nine Interior-coded awards — the thickest Interior file among the California 014 cells in this harvest — still resolve to about four percent of CA-02’s district obligation total. That pair is Department of the Interior and California 2nd District (CA-02) — not California’s entire federal inflow, not Department of the Interior nationwide, and not cash already paid. The cell is 4.3% of this district’s published obligation total ($6,163,729,580.54). Implied average obligation is about $528,838.75 ($263,890,537.38 ÷ 499). Correlation is not causation.

What the Interior–CA-02 join is

Awarding agency 014 and congressional district CA-02 meet here. $263,890,537.38 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 California 2nd District (CA-02), and not an outlay register. The packet does not split Interior bureaus or contract versus assistance instruments. 499 is an action count: modifications and repeat awards add rows. Unique recipients are unpublished. It is not a park census, a land-acreage inventory, or a named-contractor file.

Dividing $263,890,537.38 by 499 yields about $528,838.75 per award on average. That ratio is two packet facts. It is not a typical contract, grant, or benefit line. 499 awards is a thicker Interior file. Volume pulls the implied mean down relative to the thinner CA-25 Interior cell. Unique recipients remain unpublished. Do not treat CA-02’s 014 cell as a synonym for every Interior account nationwide. Open California 2nd District for the district table without this agency filter, Department of the Interior for agency 014 without the CA-02 filter, California federal spending for every awarding agency in the California extract, and All spending ties for the rest of the join list. Quote those hubs as parents, not as addends to $263,890,537.38.

Awarding agency 014 as the Interior side

USAspending labels awarding agency 014 as Department of the Interior. That code produced $263,890,537.38 when crossed with California 2nd District (CA-02) place of performance. The agency-wide 014 hub does not require CA-02 geography. The district hub does not require Interior. Only this tie applies both filters, which is why it cites 499 awards. The packet does not split Interior bureaus or contract versus assistance instruments.

Correlation is not causation: California 2nd District (CA-02) did not “cause” $263,890,537.38 by existing as a large or small place. Population, outcome scores, and named facilities are not packet facts. The join is 014 × CA-02 only. It is not a park census, a land-acreage 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.

California 2nd District (CA-02) as place of performance

California 2nd District (CA-02) on this join is a USAspending geography field, not a claim that every dollar was disbursed to residents of that district. Awards can list CA-02 while later work occurs elsewhere. Awards tagged to other California districts belong on those ties even when the awarding agency is also 014. California 2nd District (CA-02) is a numbered congressional place-of-performance code inside California. Other California districts are separate joins even when they reuse awarding-agency 014. California 2nd District (CA-02) is not CA-07 or CA-25. Same Interior code, denser action file, different share of a six-billion-dollar district denominator.

California federal spending shows how agency 014 sits beside other awarding agencies in the same state extract. $263,890,537.38 is one district-agency column, not the state table. This packet does not split California 2nd District (CA-02) by county, city, or census tract. Awards that carry a different awarding-agency code stay on those other ties even if the work sounds related to Department of the Interior. The district-wide obligation total published here is $6,163,729,580.54; $263,890,537.38 is the Interior slice of that denominator.

Obligations, not outlays

USAspending.gov records an obligation when the federal government commits funds on an award. $263,890,537.38 is that kind of sum for Department of the Interior inside CA-02 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 $263,890,537.38 as given.

California’s own budget is a separate ledger. Mixing it with the 499-row Interior cell leaves USAspending.gov. Treat 499 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 ($528,838.75) is a concentration statistic, not a typical CA-02 Interior payment.

How to cite Interior in CA-02

Cite USAspending.gov: Department of the Interior (agency 014) obligated $263,890,537.38 on 499 awards coded to California 2nd District (CA-02). Name Department of the Interior and California 2nd District (CA-02) together. Keep the obligation word. If California 2nd District or Department of the Interior has refreshed, prefer the live hub over this snapshot for current rows. The pair is not a park census, a land-acreage inventory, or a named-contractor file. 4.3% of $6,163,729,580.54 is the district share on this packet, not a performance score.

Keep Department of the Interior, California 2nd District (CA-02), $263,890,537.38, and 499 awards together. All spending ties indexes other pairs. Department of the Interior is the 014 parent without a CA-02 filter. California federal spending is the California parent. Do not add those parents to this cell. Sharing a district with Interior does not mean campaign donations funded these awards, and it does not convert obligations into outlays. This page reports one USAspending join.

Reading a moderate Interior file in CA-02

499 awards is a thicker Interior file. Volume pulls the implied mean down relative to the thinner CA-25 Interior cell. Unique recipients remain unpublished. 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 $528,838.75) and the district share (4.3% of $6,163,729,580.54) are ratios of packet facts. Prefer California 2nd District and Department of the Interior if the live tables moved.

Do not rank California 2nd District (CA-02) 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 $263,890,537.38 and 499 only. All spending ties is the index, not an addend. Obligations are not outlays. Correlation is not causation.
