Department of the Treasury federal obligations in Rhode Island

A thin Treasury file on Rhode Island

Department of the Treasury as awarding agency, Rhode Island as place-of-performance: 105 records summing to $944,795,149.28. A Department of the Treasury award coded outside RI is out. An award in Rhode Island from a different awarding agency is out even if the topic sounds related. Rhode Island (RI) excludes Massachusetts and Connecticut. A Fall River-coded award is Massachusetts even if the bay story sounds similar.

One hundred five awards against $944,795,149.28 is a thin Treasury book. The implied mean is large and is not a typical project size. Unique recipients are unpublished. Do not read 105 as 105 unique IRS campuses, unique fiscal-service sites, or a census of refunds. The overlay Department of the Treasury in Rhode Island is the both-keys table. Rhode Island federal spending is the all-agency state hub. Department of the Treasury is the agency book without an RI filter. All spending ties lists other joins.

Providence, Warwick, and Newport share one RI stamp. Treasury components under awarding-agency 020 can share the code without a published bureau pie. Correlation is not causation: Rhode Island did not cause $944,795,149.28 by existing as a large or small place. Population and outcome scores are not packet facts. The join is 020 × RI only.

105 actions are not 105 tax shops

$944,795,149.28 does not measure IRS campuses, unique fiscal-service sites, or a census of refunds. Those series are not USAspending fields on this aggregate. The cell sums award obligations with awarding-agency code 020 and an RI place-of-performance tag.

Do not treat 105 awards as a census of IRS campuses, unique fiscal-service sites, or a census of refunds. Parent hubs are supposed to be larger than this pair. If Rhode Island federal spending or Department of the Treasury matched $944,795,149.28 and 105, the join would be pointless. Use the overlay when both keys must stay on. Neighbor-state Treasury joins are other pairs, not addends. Dividing $944,795,149.28 by 105 yields about $8,998,049.04 per award on average. That average hides contracts, grants, and other instruments. It is not a typical Treasury line and not a published median.

Rhode Island, not a Narragansett Treasury rollup

Place of performance RI is a geography tag on the award, not a metro list and not a commuting zone. Rhode Island (RI) excludes Massachusetts and Connecticut. A Fall River-coded award is Massachusetts even if the bay story sounds similar. Recipient address can differ from that state tag.

Providence, Warwick, and Newport share one RI stamp. This packet does not split $944,795,149.28 by city, county, or named facility. 105 awards stay statewide. A county table would be a different extract.

Few Treasury rows, still obligations

Even a thick or thin file records obligations, not necessarily outlays. $944,795,149.28 can include amounts that pay on a later schedule. Citing it as cash already sent in Rhode Island confuses two concepts. Deobligations and upward adjustments both move the total.

Rhode Island's own budget is a different ledger. Mixing it with the 105-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 $944,795,149.28.

What this pair does not prove

A large Treasury total in Rhode Island does not mean the agency caused Rhode Island's fiscal mix, and it does not connect these obligations to campaign contributions. Keep $944,795,149.28 labeled as agency 020 obligations with Rhode Island place of performance. Neighbor Treasury cells among Massachusetts and Connecticut are separate joins. This page does not rank Rhode Island as a winner or loser.

Recipient names are unpublished in this packet. Do not invent contractors or award recipients to explain $944,795,149.28. Place-of-performance RI can differ from a vendor mailroom. A Fall River-coded award is Massachusetts even if the bay story sounds similar. A later ingest can restate $944,795,149.28 and 105 without changing the join definition: awarding agency 020 crossed with Rhode Island.

Citing Treasury in Rhode Island

Cite USAspending.gov: Department of the Treasury (agency 020) obligated $944,795,149.28 on 105 awards coded to Rhode Island. Name both sides. Keep “obligations.” Do not relabel the total as IRS campuses, unique fiscal-service sites, or a census of refunds.

Prefer Department of the Treasury in Rhode Island if the overlay has refreshed after an ingest. Rhode Island federal spending still includes every other awarding agency tagged to RI. Department of the Treasury is the 020 parent without the RI filter. All spending ties indexes other pairs. Do not add those parents into $944,795,149.28.

A usable footnote names Department of the Treasury, Rhode Island, $944,795,149.28, and 105. The implied mean near $8,998,049.04 is $944,795,149.28 divided by 105. Means are not medians. USAspending.gov remains the originating system. FEC individual contributions are a different dataset; they do not fund this USAspending cell. Correlation is not causation.
