Is $5,212,822,654.56 a measure of lane-miles, unique contractors, or named Interstates?

No. The packet publishes $5,212,822,654.56 and 4,068 awards for agency 069 inside MO coding. Those other series are unpublished here. Unique recipients are unpublished. Quote the dollar total and the award count together. Obligations are not outlays.

Modifications and repeat instruments add rows. 4,068 is not unique lane-miles, unique contractors, or named Interstates. Later ingests can revise the count. Prefer the overlay if the table moved.

DOT awards tagged to Missouri

Department of Transportation as awarding agency, Missouri as place-of-performance: 4,068 records summing to $5,212,822,654.56. A Department of Transportation award coded outside MO is out. An award in Missouri from a different awarding agency is out even if the topic sounds related. Missouri (MO) excludes Kansas, Illinois, Iowa, Arkansas, Kentucky, Tennessee, Nebraska, and Oklahoma. A Kansas City, Kansas-coded award is KS.

Four thousand sixty-eight awards sits in the thicker DOT band. Modifications can add rows without each row being a new construction project. Unique recipients are unpublished. Do not read 4,068 as 4,068 unique lane-miles, unique contractors, or named Interstates. The overlay Department of Transportation in Missouri is the both-keys table. Missouri federal spending is the all-agency state hub. Department of Transportation is the agency book without an MO filter. All spending ties lists other joins.

St. Louis and Kansas City are unpublished. Do not treat 4,068 as two metro project lists glued together. Correlation is not causation: Missouri did not “cause” $5,212,822,654.56 by existing as a large or small place. Population and outcome scores are not packet facts. The join is 069 × MO only.

Not I-70 folklore or a bridge census

$5,212,822,654.56 does not measure lane-miles, unique contractors, or named Interstates. Those series are not USAspending fields on this aggregate. The cell sums award obligations with awarding-agency code 069 and an MO place-of-performance tag.

Do not treat 4,068 awards as a census of lane-miles, unique contractors, or named Interstates. Parent hubs are supposed to be larger than this pair. If Missouri federal spending or Department of Transportation matched $5,212,822,654.56 and 4,068, the join would be pointless. Use the overlay when both keys must stay on. Kansas, Illinois, and Arkansas DOT joins are other pairs, not addends.

Missouri, not a Kansas City bi-state rollup

Place of performance MO is a geography tag on the award, not a metro list and not a commuting zone. Missouri (MO) excludes Kansas, Illinois, Iowa, Arkansas, Kentucky, Tennessee, Nebraska, and Oklahoma. A Kansas City, Kansas-coded award is KS. Recipient address can differ from that state tag.

St. Louis and Kansas City are unpublished. Do not treat 4,068 as two metro project lists glued together. This packet does not split $5,212,822,654.56 by city, county, or named facility. 4,068 awards stay statewide. A county table would be a different extract.

Award stock versus contractor draws

Even a thick or thin file records obligations, not necessarily outlays. $5,212,822,654.56 can include amounts that pay on a later schedule. Citing it as cash already sent in Missouri confuses two concepts. Deobligations and upward adjustments both move the total.

Missouri’s own budget is a different ledger. Mixing it with the 4,068-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 $5,212,822,654.56.

Citing DOT in Missouri

Cite USAspending.gov: Department of Transportation (agency 069) obligated $5,212,822,654.56 on 4,068 awards coded to Missouri. Name both sides. Keep “obligations.” Do not relabel the total as lane-miles, unique contractors, or named Interstates.

Prefer Department of Transportation in Missouri if the overlay has refreshed after an ingest. Missouri federal spending still includes every other awarding agency tagged to MO. Department of Transportation is the 069 parent without the MO filter. All spending ties indexes other pairs. Do not add those parents into $5,212,822,654.56.

A usable footnote names Department of Transportation, Missouri, $5,212,822,654.56, and 4,068. The compact headline $5.21 billion is that same dollar total rounded. It is not a second extract. The implied mean near $1.28 million is $5,212,822,654.56 divided by 4,068. Means are not medians. USAspending.gov remains the originating system.
