Department of the Interior obligations in New Mexico 3rd District (NM-03)

Interior × NM-03 is a bureau join, not a pueblo census

This page is a join: Department of the Interior (agency 014) as awarding agency, and New Mexico 3rd District (NM-03) as congressional district place of performance. SpendingVault sums tagged obligations to $1,907,543,935.97 on 1,270 awards. The join is awarding-agency 014 crossed with an NM-03 location field, not New Mexico’s entire interior budget and not a named-pueblo or national-monument roster. Treat the pair as a catalog intersection, not a ranking of which district received more, and not a claim that 1,270 awards equal 1,270 pueblos, monuments, or unique contractors.

Energy laboratory lines, USDA conservation, or Interior-coded awards in NM-01 or NM-02 sit outside this total unless they also carry agency 014 and NM-03. Mixing those books into $1,907,543,935.97 would invent a combined figure the packet never computed. Correlation between this obligation sum and tribal enrollment is not causation. Enrollment and monument-acreage figures are not in the packet. Place of performance as NM-03 locates the tagged awards; it does not deposit $1,907,543,935.97 in a district treasury. Santa Fe-versus-Farmington folklore is not a geography split in this packet.

1,270 awards behind $1.91 billion

Mean obligation is about $1,502,003.10 if $1,907,543,935.97 were divided evenly across 1,270 lines. That ratio is not a published compact size and not a typical monument budget. Award count is a row count, including possible continuations and modifications. It is not a count of pueblos, monuments, or unique vendors. One thousand two hundred seventy awards is a thick Interior action file; dollars still sit on tagged rows, not on a unit list.

The overlay can list named lines; this narrative will not invent pueblos or labs. This page will not invent contractor or recipient names. Open New Mexico 3rd District for the stored district table. Do not convert 1,270 into a map of New Mexico 3rd District pueblos. The $1,907,543,935.97 total remains an obligation rollup on tagged awards. Inspect named lines on the overlay rather than inferring a pueblo census.

New Mexico 3rd District, not a northern-NM land rollup

New Mexico 3rd District (NM-03) is one geography tag on USAspending awards, not a commuting zone and not a metro list. Awards tagged to NM-01, NM-02, or another New Mexico district are out even if the bureau sounds related. Recipient address can differ from that district tag. The district parent in this extract is $95,078,480,123.57 across every awarding agency; $1,907,543,935.97 is the Department of the Interior slice — about 2.0% of that parent by arithmetic. Subtracting is tempting; this page still does not publish the leftover agency list.

A statewide Interior figure on New Mexico federal spending mixes every district. Do not rank NM-03 against neighboring districts as a winner or loser. Other New Mexico district cells are other joins. New Mexico federal spending is the statewide book without a district filter. Adding statewide Department of the Interior dollars to $1,907,543,935.97 would double count. Campaign-finance filings are a different public-record system; this join does not claim donations funded these obligations.

Agency 014 obligations are not trust payments already mailed

Interior awards often obligate as bureau contracts and assistance rows and draw as field offices spend. The $1,907,543,935.97 headline is the obligation sum, not a punch-list of trust checks cashed and not a Treasury outlay total. A BIA compact ledger dated to a particular year is not automatically this join unless it uses agency 014, NM-03 geography, and the obligation metric.

Department of the Interior is the nationwide agency book without a NM-03 filter. This extract does not split BIA from BLM, and it does not split water from cultural programs. Those cuts would require award documentation beyond dollars, 1,270 awards, agency 014, and New Mexico 3rd District. This page will not invent a share. Unique recipients remain unpublished.

What the NM-03 Interior table omits

The extract has no pueblo names, monument names, or laboratory campuses. Facts remain $1,907,543,935.97, 1,270 awards, agency 014, Department of the Interior, New Mexico 3rd District (NM-03), and district parent $95,078,480,123.57. Named units belong on the overlay if they appear as recipients; they are not extra packet dollars. Keep the obligation label. Later ingests can revise both the dollars and the 1,270-award count; prefer the live table when the overlay and this snapshot diverge.

Where the Interior × NM-03 pair lives

Start with New Mexico 3rd District for the district rollup that contains this Department of the Interior cell. Department of the Interior is the nationwide agency listing. New Mexico federal spending gives New Mexico context without a NM-03 filter. All spending ties indexes other two-key joins on the same obligation metric. 1,270 awards totaling this cell remain an administrative file, not a pueblo census. Keep both Department of the Interior and New Mexico 3rd District (NM-03) in every citation sentence. Do not recast $1,907,543,935.97 as cash already paid or as New Mexico’s entire interior appropriation. USAspending.gov remains the source; SpendingVault republishes the join.

Questions

How much Interior spending is obligated in New Mexico 3rd District?

USAspending.gov shows $1,907,543,935.97 in Department of the Interior (agency 014) obligations with New Mexico 3rd District (NM-03) as place of performance, across 1,270 awards. The sum is a commitment total, not outlays and not the district’s full $95,078,480,123.57 parent. Other agencies sit outside this join unless they also carry 014.

Do 1,270 awards mean 1,270 pueblos in NM-03?

No. Award count is a row count of Department of the Interior actions tagged to NM-03. It is not a pueblo, monument, or vendor census. Mean obligation of about $1,502,003.10 is a quotient of $1,907,543,935.97 and 1,270, not a compact size.

Does this Interior cell include Energy lab work in NM-03?

No. This page is awarding agency 014 only. Department of Energy lines are other joins. $1,907,543,935.97 is about 2.0% of the New Mexico 3rd District parent $95,078,480,123.57 by arithmetic — a small slice of a large district book.

Is the NM-03 Interior total already paid as outlays?

Not on this metric. Obligations are recorded commitments on awards. Outlays are payments from the Treasury. The $1,907,543,935.97 headline is the obligation rollup in SpendingVault’s extract. Drawdowns and remaining balances are not published here. Cite USAspending.gov as the source.
