Department of the Treasury federal obligations in Pennsylvania

Treasury awards tagged to Pennsylvania

Department of the Treasury as awarding agency, Pennsylvania as place-of-performance: 1,199 records summing to $4,363,052,272.20. A Department of the Treasury award coded outside PA is out. An award in Pennsylvania from a different awarding agency is out even if the topic sounds related. Pennsylvania (PA) excludes New York, New Jersey, Ohio, Maryland, Delaware, and West Virginia. A Wilmington-coded award is Delaware.

One thousand one hundred ninety-nine awards against $4,363,052,272.20 is a moderate Treasury book, not a thin headquarters-only list. Unique recipients are unpublished. Do not read 1,199 as 1,199 unique individual tax refunds, taxpayer counts, or named IRS campuses. The overlay Department of the Treasury in Pennsylvania is the both-keys table. Pennsylvania federal spending is the all-agency state hub. Department of the Treasury is the agency book without a PA filter. All spending ties lists other joins.

Philadelphia and Pittsburgh are unpublished metro shares. Assigning the cell to a named campus is a new extract. Correlation is not causation: Pennsylvania did not “cause” $4,363,052,272.20 by existing as a large or small place. Population and outcome scores are not packet facts. The join is 020 × PA only.

Refunds are a different series

$4,363,052,272.20 does not measure individual tax refunds, taxpayer counts, or named IRS campuses. Those series are not USAspending fields on this aggregate. The cell sums award obligations with awarding-agency code 020 and a PA place-of-performance tag.

Do not treat 1,199 awards as a census of individual tax refunds, taxpayer counts, or named IRS campuses. Parent hubs are supposed to be larger than this pair. If Pennsylvania federal spending or Department of the Treasury matched $4,363,052,272.20 and 1,199, the join would be pointless. Use the overlay when both keys must stay on. New York, New Jersey, and Ohio Treasury joins are other pairs, not addends.

Pennsylvania, not a Philadelphia-campus map

Place of performance PA is a geography tag on the award, not a metro list and not a commuting zone. Pennsylvania (PA) excludes New York, New Jersey, Ohio, Maryland, Delaware, and West Virginia. A Wilmington-coded award is Delaware. Recipient address can differ from that state tag.

Philadelphia and Pittsburgh are unpublished metro shares. Assigning the cell to a named campus is a new extract. This packet does not split $4,363,052,272.20 by city, county, or named facility. 1,199 awards stay statewide. A county table would be a different extract.

Fiscal vehicles, still obligations

Even a thick or thin file records obligations, not necessarily outlays. $4,363,052,272.20 can include amounts that pay on a later schedule. Citing it as cash already sent in Pennsylvania confuses two concepts. Deobligations and upward adjustments both move the total.

Pennsylvania’s own budget is a different ledger. Mixing it with the 1,199-award 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 $4,363,052,272.20. Sharing a state with Treasury does not mean campaign donations funded these awards.

Citing Treasury in Pennsylvania

Cite USAspending.gov: Department of the Treasury (agency 020) obligated $4,363,052,272.20 on 1,199 awards coded to Pennsylvania. Name both sides. Keep “obligations.” Do not relabel the total as individual tax refunds, taxpayer counts, or named IRS campuses.

Prefer Department of the Treasury in Pennsylvania if the overlay has refreshed after an ingest. Pennsylvania federal spending still includes every other awarding agency tagged to PA. Department of the Treasury is the 020 parent without the PA filter. All spending ties indexes other pairs. Do not add those parents into $4,363,052,272.20.

A usable footnote names Department of the Treasury, Pennsylvania, $4,363,052,272.20, and 1,199. The compact headline $4.36 billion is that same dollar total rounded. It is not a second extract. The implied mean near $3.64 million is $4,363,052,272.20 divided by 1,199. Means are not medians. USAspending.gov remains the originating system.
