Federal Communications Commission federal obligations in Nebraska

FCC and Nebraska as a coding pair

This page is a join of two USAspending.gov fields: awarding agency Federal Communications Commission (code 027) and place-of-performance Nebraska. The extract sums to $1,925,238,998.19 on 4,267 awards. Those facts describe a coding intersection. They do not show that Federal Communications Commission spending caused Nebraska outcomes, or that Nebraska caused the federal award book.

The pair is not a Nebraska rural-coverage ranking or a fiber-route inventory. Correlation of an agency label with a state code is not causation. Place-of-performance can follow a rural carrier, a cooperative, or an administrative address in Lincoln or Omaha. Work tagged to Nebraska can involve parties elsewhere, and Nebraska work can be coded to another state.

FCC coverage maps and state broadband-office dashboards are other products. Mixing any of those series with $1,925,238,998.19 leaves the USAspending award file. The 4,267 figure counts award records, including modifications present in the extract, not unique people, firms, or facilities.

Four thousand awards under $1.93 billion

Four thousand two hundred sixty-seven awards under a $1.93 billion book is a busy tape. Dividing $1,925,238,998.19 by 4,267 awards yields an implied mean near $451,193. That quotient is a ratio of two packet facts, not a typical award size and not a median. A few large vehicles can pull the average while many smaller rows sit below it.

Volume and dollars are different columns. Cite both 4,267 and $1,925,238,998.19. USAspending.gov is the source. SpendingVault does not recast $451,193 as a product schedule or a beneficiary payment.

Later ingests can revise $1,925,238,998.19 and 4,267. This prose is a packet snapshot. The overlay is the live table. If those two disagree, use the overlay. Keep the obligation label so the cell is not read as cash already paid in Nebraska.

Nebraska statewide versus FCC nationwide

Nebraska’s all-agency hub includes every awarding agency with performance in the state. $1,925,238,998.19 is only the Federal Communications Commission cell inside Nebraska. The Federal Communications Commission national hub includes every state. This tie is the overlap, nothing more.

State budget documents in Nebraska answer a different question. They are not the source of the 4,267 federal award records. If a chart mixes a General Fund table with this cell, the chart has left the USAspending.gov series.

A 4,267-row file with an implied mean near $451,193 sits between Oklahoma’s even busier FCC tape and thinner cabinet-department files. This packet does not rank states on coverage. $1,925,238,998.19 is an obligation cell, not a share of households served.

Commitments on support vehicles

An obligation records a legal commitment on an award. An outlay records cash leaving the Treasury. $1,925,238,998.19 is the first series. Using it as a proxy for checks already issued in Nebraska will misstate timing. SpendingVault does not convert this cell into cash.

Multi-year vehicles can remain open after the obligation posts. Cite the pair as agency 027 × Nebraska, $1,925,238,998.19, 4,267 awards, obligations only.

Overlay and parent hubs

The Nebraska × Federal Communications Commission overlay holds the structured rows behind 4,267 awards and $1,925,238,998.19. The Nebraska state page and the Federal Communications Commission agency page are the parents. The ties index lists other state–agency pairs on the same obligation basis.

Those views do not add a program-code mix or a unique-recipient count this packet omits. They also do not convert $1,925,238,998.19 into outlays.

How to cite FCC in Nebraska

Cite USAspending.gov: Federal Communications Commission (awarding agency 027) obligated $1,925,238,998.19 on 4,267 awards coded to Nebraska. Keep both sides of the join. Do not drop Nebraska and call the figure a national FCC total. Do not drop Federal Communications Commission and call it Nebraska’s entire federal book.

The implied mean near $451,193 remains a ratio of two packet facts. Place-of-performance is a coding field, not a complete map of Nebraska subcontractors. Do not convert the Nebraska FCC cell into a coverage percentage.
