Department of Transportation obligations in North Carolina 11th District (NC-11)

The North Carolina 11th District (NC-11) filter on Transportation

Awarding agency 069 and congressional district NC-11 meet here. $818,295,881.07 is the USAspending.gov obligation sum on awards that carry both tags. It is not Department of Transportation’s nationwide total, not every federal dollar coded to North Carolina 11th District (NC-11), and not an outlay register. The packet does not split DOT operating administrations or contract versus assistance instruments. 223 is an action count: modifications and repeat awards add rows. Unique recipients are unpublished. It is not a highway-mile inventory, a transit-ridership total, or a named-contractor file.

Dividing $818,295,881.07 by 223 yields about $3,669,488.26 per award on average. That ratio is two packet facts. It is not a typical contract, grant, or benefit line. 223 awards is a moderate DOT file. Share near eleven percent means other awarding agencies still hold most of the published district total. Do not treat NC-11’s 069 cell as a synonym for every Transportation account nationwide. Open North Carolina 11th District for the district table without this agency filter, Department of Transportation for agency 069 without the NC-11 filter, North Carolina federal spending for every awarding agency in the North Carolina extract, and All spending ties for the rest of the join list. Quote those hubs as parents, not as addends to $818,295,881.07.

The Department of Transportation awarding-agency rollup

USAspending labels awarding agency 069 as Department of Transportation. That code produced $818,295,881.07 when crossed with North Carolina 11th District (NC-11) place of performance. The agency-wide 069 hub does not require NC-11 geography. The district hub does not require Transportation. Only this tie applies both filters, which is why it cites 223 awards. The packet does not split DOT operating administrations or contract versus assistance instruments.

Correlation is not causation: North Carolina 11th District (NC-11) did not “cause” $818,295,881.07 by existing as a large or small place. Population, outcome scores, and named facilities are not packet facts. The join is 069 × NC-11 only. It is not a highway-mile inventory, a transit-ridership total, 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.

Reading the NC-11 stamp

North Carolina 11th District (NC-11) on this join is a USAspending geography field, not a claim that every dollar was disbursed to residents of that district. Awards can list NC-11 while later work occurs elsewhere. Awards tagged to other North Carolina districts belong on those ties even when the awarding agency is also 069. North Carolina 11th District (NC-11) is a numbered congressional place-of-performance code inside North Carolina. Other North Carolina districts are separate joins even when they reuse awarding-agency 069. North Carolina 11th District (NC-11) is a numbered place-of-performance geography inside North Carolina. Other North Carolina districts are not added into this cell.

North Carolina federal spending shows how agency 069 sits beside other awarding agencies in the same state extract. $818,295,881.07 is one district-agency column, not the state table. This packet does not split North Carolina 11th District (NC-11) by county, city, or census tract. Awards that carry a different awarding-agency code stay on those other ties even if the work sounds related to Department of Transportation. The district-wide obligation total published here is $7,791,762,543.70; $818,295,881.07 is the Transportation slice of that denominator.

USAspending obligations on this pair

USAspending.gov records an obligation when the federal government commits funds on an award. $818,295,881.07 is that kind of sum for Department of Transportation inside NC-11 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 $818,295,881.07 as given.

North Carolina’s own budget is a separate ledger. Mixing it with the 223-row Transportation cell leaves USAspending.gov. Treat 223 as award records in the aggregate, not unique vendors. Do not annualize without a year field in the packet. Do not per-capita or per-recipient the dollar total; those denominators are unpublished. The implied mean ($3,669,488.26) is a concentration statistic, not a typical NC-11 Transportation payment.

Row count versus dollar concentration

223 awards is a moderate DOT file. Share near eleven percent means other awarding agencies still hold most of the published district total. 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 $3,669,488.26) and the district share (10.5% of $7,791,762,543.70) are ratios of packet facts. Prefer North Carolina 11th District and Department of Transportation if the live tables moved.

Questions

How much Transportation spending is coded to North Carolina 11th District (NC-11)?

That pair is an obligation join, not an outlay and not North Carolina’s complete federal ledger. The cell is 10.5% of the district’s published total ($7,791,762,543.70). Unique recipients are unpublished.

Does $818,295,881.07 include every Transportation program in NC-11?

The packet does not split DOT operating administrations or contract versus assistance instruments. $818,295,881.07 is the combined obligation sum for agency 069 inside NC-11 coding. This page will not invent a program pie or name contractors. 223 remains an action count, not a program count.

Is $818,295,881.07 cash already paid in North Carolina 11th District (NC-11)?

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 $818,295,881.07 as checks already cleared in North Carolina 11th District (NC-11) confuses those terms. Later ingests can revise 223 awards. Prefer the live district and agency hubs if the tables moved.

Why is the implied average $3,669,488.26 not a typical award?

The average is $818,295,881.07 divided by 223 awards, about $3,669,488.26. Thick files pull the mean down; thin files pull it up. Neither case publishes a typical instrument. Modifications add rows. Recipients are unpublished. Use the ratio only as a concentration statistic.
