Department of the Interior obligations in North Dakota At-Large District (ND-00)

USAspending.gov tags $1,150,462,390.86 to Department of the Interior inside North Dakota At-Large District (ND-00) — 586 award records, not outlays. Five hundred eighty-six Interior-coded awards equal about one percent of North Dakota At-Large’s district obligation total because the at-large denominator exceeds one hundred two billion dollars. That pair is Department of the Interior and North Dakota At-Large District (ND-00) — not North Dakota’s entire federal inflow, not Department of the Interior nationwide, and not cash already paid. The cell is 1.1% of this district’s published obligation total ($102,289,409,487.25). Implied average obligation is about $1,963,246.40 ($1,150,462,390.86 ÷ 586). Correlation is not causation.

Interior obligations coded to North Dakota At-Large District (ND-00)

Awarding agency 014 and congressional district ND-00 meet here. $1,150,462,390.86 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 North Dakota At-Large District (ND-00), and not an outlay register. The packet does not split Interior bureaus or contract versus assistance instruments. 586 is an action count: modifications and repeat awards add rows. Unique recipients are unpublished. It is not a park census, a tribal roster, a mineral-lease catalog, or a named-contractor file.

Dividing $1,150,462,390.86 by 586 yields about $1,963,246.40 per award on average. That ratio is two packet facts. It is not a typical contract, grant, or benefit line. 586 awards is a moderate Interior file against a huge at-large base. A modest share of a huge district total is still a one-point-two-billion-dollar Interior cell. Do not treat ND-00’s 014 cell as a synonym for every Interior account nationwide. Open North Dakota At-Large District for the district table without this agency filter, Department of the Interior for agency 014 without the ND-00 filter, North Dakota federal spending for every awarding agency in the North Dakota extract, and All spending ties for the rest of the join list. Quote those hubs as parents, not as addends to $1,150,462,390.86.

What Interior contributes to this pair

USAspending labels awarding agency 014 as Department of the Interior. That code produced $1,150,462,390.86 when crossed with North Dakota At-Large District (ND-00) place of performance. The agency-wide 014 hub does not require ND-00 geography. The district hub does not require Interior. Only this tie applies both filters, which is why it cites 586 awards. The packet does not split Interior bureaus or contract versus assistance instruments.

Correlation is not causation: North Dakota At-Large District (ND-00) did not “cause” $1,150,462,390.86 by existing as a large or small place. Population, outcome scores, and named facilities are not packet facts. The join is 014 × ND-00 only. It is not a park census, a tribal roster, a mineral-lease catalog, 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.

District geography versus North Dakota statewide totals

North Dakota At-Large District (ND-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 ND-00 while later work occurs elsewhere. Awards tagged to other North Dakota districts belong on those ties even when the awarding agency is also 014. North Dakota At-Large District (ND-00) is North Dakota’s at-large congressional geography in the USAspending district field, so the stamp covers the state as one district rather than a numbered slice. North Dakota At-Large District (ND-00) is the state’s single at-large geography, not a numbered slice of a multi-district map and not placeholder 90 or 98.

Why this is not an outlay register

USAspending.gov records an obligation when the federal government commits funds on an award. $1,150,462,390.86 is that kind of sum for Department of the Interior inside ND-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 $1,150,462,390.86 as given.

Live tables versus this snapshot

Name Department of the Interior and North Dakota At-Large District (ND-00) together. Keep the obligation word. If North Dakota 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 census, a tribal roster, a mineral-lease catalog, or a named-contractor file. 1.1% of $102,289,409,487.25 is the district share on this packet, not a performance score.

Keep Department of the Interior, North Dakota At-Large District (ND-00), $1,150,462,390.86, and 586 awards together. All spending ties indexes other pairs. Department of the Interior is the 014 parent without a ND-00 filter. North Dakota federal spending is the North Dakota 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.

What this packet refuses to infer

586 awards is a moderate Interior file against a huge at-large base. A modest share of a huge district total is still a one-point-two-billion-dollar Interior cell. 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 $1,963,246.40) and the district share (1.1% of $102,289,409,487.25) are ratios of packet facts. Prefer North Dakota At-Large District and Department of the Interior if the live tables moved.

Questions

How much Interior spending is coded to North Dakota At-Large District (ND-00)?
USAspending.gov lists $1,150,462,390.86 in Interior (agency 014) obligations across 586 awards coded to North Dakota At-Large District (ND-00). That pair is an obligation join, not an outlay and not North Dakota’s complete federal ledger. The cell is 1.1% of the district’s published total ($102,289,409,487.25). Unique recipients are unpublished.
Does $1,150,462,390.86 include every Interior program in ND-00?
The packet publishes one awarding-agency rollup. The packet does not split Interior bureaus or contract versus assistance instruments. $1,150,462,390.86 is the combined obligation sum for agency 014 inside ND-00 coding. This page will not invent a program pie or name contractors. 586 remains an action count, not a program count.
Is $1,150,462,390.86 cash already paid in North Dakota At-Large District (ND-00)?
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 $1,150,462,390.86 as checks already cleared in North Dakota At-Large District (ND-00) confuses those terms. Later ingests can revise 586 awards. Prefer the live district and agency hubs if the tables moved.
What share of ND-00 obligations is agency 014?
