Department of Transportation federal obligations in North Carolina

What the DOT–North Carolina join is

Awarding agency 069 and place-of-performance state NC meet here. $8,885,046,504.99 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, and not an outlay register. Highway, transit, aviation, rail, and maritime awarding offices can roll up under 069. This page is the parent code plus North Carolina, not a mode table.

2,615 is a moderate row count, consistent with a mix of formula vehicles and project awards, without naming those vehicles. Modifications and repeat awards add rows. Unique recipients are unpublished. Dividing $8,885,046,504.99 by 2,615 yields about $3.40 million per award on average. That ratio is two packet facts. It is not a typical contract, grant, or benefit line.

Open Department of Transportation in North Carolina for the live filtered table, North Carolina federal spending for every awarding agency in the state extract, Department of Transportation for agency 069 without a North Carolina filter, and All spending ties for the rest of the join list. Quote those hubs as parents, not as addends to $8,885,046,504.99.

Awarding agency 069 as the DOT side

USAspending labels awarding agency 069 as Department of Transportation. That code produced $8,885,046,504.99 when crossed with North Carolina place of performance. The agency-wide 069 hub does not require NC geography. The North Carolina hub does not require DOT. Only the overlay applies both filters, which is why this tie cites 2,615 awards.

Highway lane-miles, a NCDOT state budget, and an FAA versus FHWA split are unpublished. Inferring a single mode from the department label overfits the aggregate. A second DOT slice on another state uses the same agency code and a different dollar total. Do not treat North Carolina’s 069 cell as a synonym for every DOT account.

North Carolina as place of performance (NC)

North Carolina on this join is a USAspending geography field, not a claim that every dollar was disbursed to North Carolina residents. Awards can list NC while later work occurs elsewhere. Awards tagged Virginia, South Carolina, Tennessee, or Georgia remain on those ties even when a corridor crosses the line. Charlotte, the Triangle, and the Outer Banks share one NC place-of-performance stamp.

North Carolina federal spending shows how agency 069 sits beside other awarding agencies in the same geography. $8,885,046,504.99 is one column in that table, not the table. This packet does not split North Carolina by county, metro, or congressional district.

Obligations, not outlays

USAspending.gov records an obligation when the federal government commits funds on an award. $8,885,046,504.99 is that kind of sum for Department of Transportation inside North Carolina 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.

North Carolina’s own budget is a separate ledger. Mixing it with the 2,615-row DOT cell leaves USAspending.gov. Net obligations can include downward adjustments. This page reports $8,885,046,504.99 as given. Treat 2,615 as award records in the aggregate, not unique vendors.

Questions

How much DOT spending is coded to North Carolina?

USAspending.gov lists $8,885,046,504.99 in Department of Transportation obligations across 2,615 North Carolina-coded awards. Agency 069 × NC is an obligation join, not an outlay and not North Carolina’s complete federal ledger. Department of Transportation in North Carolina is the live overlay for this pair. Unique recipients are unpublished. Average obligation is about $3.40 million, a ratio of those two facts only.

Does this total include every DOT program in North Carolina?

The packet publishes one awarding-agency rollup. Highway, transit, aviation, rail, and maritime awarding offices can roll up under 069. This page is the parent code plus North Carolina, not a mode table. $8,885,046,504.99 is the combined obligation sum for agency 069 inside North Carolina coding.

Is $8,885,046,504.99 cash already paid in North Carolina?

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 $8,885,046,504.99 as checks already cleared in North Carolina confuses those terms. Later ingests can revise 2,615 awards. Prefer the overlay if the table moved.
