Department of Transportation federal obligations in New Jersey

DOT’s New Jersey-coded award book

Keep two filters in view. Awarding agency is Department of Transportation, agency 069. Geography is New Jersey. The surviving file is $13,513,738,745.30 and 3,319 awards. FHWA, FTA, FAA, and other Transportation awarding offices can share agency 069. This packet does not split modes. Other awarding agencies inside New Jersey sit on other pages even when the same metro hosts their work.

Dollars per record come to about $4.07 million. That mean mixes large assistance or contract vehicles with smaller actions. It is not a typical highway project invoice and not a typical transit grant. Unique recipients are unpublished. New Jersey’s Transportation file sits in a through-state with ports, turnpikes, and rail. None of those modes is a packet split. Agency 069 × NJ remains one statewide obligation join.

What the DOT–New Jersey pair is not

This join is not a lane-mile inventory, a congestion score, or a transit-ridership census. $13,513,738,745.30 measures award obligations with a 069 awarding-agency code and a NJ place-of-performance tag. New Jersey sits between New York and Philadelphia. Port Authority is not a USAspending state code. This packet is statewide NJ, not a corridor map. Neighbor-state awards stay in other cells.

Department of Transportation in New Jersey is the overlay. New Jersey federal spending still includes every other awarding agency in the state extract. Department of Transportation is the parent agency hub without a New Jersey filter. All spending ties holds the rest of the join list. Correlation is not causation: sharing a state with DOT does not mean the state caused the cell.

Obligation versus outlay on agency 069

Assistance and contract awards can obligate in one fiscal window and pay on a different schedule. $13,513,738,745.30 is the commitment sum. Treating it as cash already cleared in New Jersey confuses obligations with outlays. The packet does not assign a fiscal year to the headline; treat $13,513,738,745.30 as the obligation total present in the indexed file.

New Jersey’s own budget is a separate ledger. Mixing it with the 3,319-row DOT cell leaves USAspending.gov. Net obligations can include de-obligations. The implied mean near $4.07 million is dollars divided by records, not a typical highway project invoice and not a typical transit grant.

One NJ tag, not a Port Authority or turnpike corridor map

This packet does not split $13,513,738,745.30 by county, metro, or North Jersey and South Jersey. 3,319 awards stay statewide. Neighboring New York, Pennsylvania, and Delaware remain other state cells even when labor markets or projects cross those lines. Publishing a Port Authority or turnpike corridor map as a subtotal would invent a number.

Place of performance can follow work in-state, a recipient address, or a reporting convention. Department of Transportation is the 069 hub without a New Jersey filter. Use it for the agency book; use this page for the NJ intersection only.
