Federal Transit Capital Investment Grants funding in Hawaii

Federal Transit Capital Investment Grants (CFDA 20.500) show $375,000,000 in USAspending.gov obligations with Hawaii as place of performance. One award carries that total — a single large assistance row, not a census of Hawaii transit lines. The join is an FTA New Starts/capital listing crossed with a state location field, not Hawaii’s entire transportation budget. Post-9/11 GI Bill on this slice is a VA overlay, not a transit subset. The dollars are commitments, not Treasury outlays.

Key figures

  • CFDA 20.500 in Hawaii shows $375,000,000 in USAspending obligations on 1 award.
  • One award is a capital-style row, not a project or ridership census.
  • The join is FTA capital investment plus Hawaii place of performance, not formula transit or GI Bill.
  • The total is commitments, not construction already completed.

Hawaii x 20.500 is a capital-investment join, not a ridership census

This page pairs CFDA 20.500, FEDERAL TRANSIT CAPITAL INVESTMENT GRANTS, with Hawaii place of performance. The listing, in program language, funds major transit capital projects such as new fixed-guideway systems and extensions. SpendingVault sums tagged obligations: $375,000,000 on 1 award. The extract does not list projects, miles, or ridership. Treat the pair as a catalog intersection, not a ranking of which state builds more rail, and not a claim that one award equals one station.

Other DOT listings — formula transit, highway planning, or ferry programs — sit outside $375,000,000 unless they also carry 20.500. Hawaii’s Post-9/11 Veterans Educational Assistance join on 64.028 is a VA overlay, not an FTA subset. Mixing capital investment with formula transit would invent a combined transportation figure the packet never computed. Correlation between this obligation sum and congestion is not causation. Congestion figures are not in the packet. Place of performance as Hawaii locates the tagged award; it does not deposit $375,000,000 in the state treasury.

1 award behind $375 million

With a single award, mean obligation equals the headline: $375,000,000. That figure is the tagged row, not a published cost per mile and not a cost per rider. Award count is a row count. It is not a count of projects, stations, or transit agencies.

One line is scannable on the overlay. This page will not invent the project or agency name. Open Federal Transit Capital Investment Grants in Hawaii for the stored table. Do not convert 1 into a map of Hawaii rail stations. The $375,000,000 total remains an obligation rollup on the tagged award, not construction already completed. Inspect the named line rather than inferring a project list.

Capital-grant obligations are not construction already completed

Major capital awards often obligate in large increments and draw as construction invoices are processed. The $375,000,000 headline is the obligation sum, not a punch-list of miles built and not a Treasury outlay total. No fiscal year is attached. An FTA Full Funding Grant Agreement dated to a particular year is not automatically this join unless it uses CFDA 20.500, Hawaii geography, and the obligation metric.

The listing title is Federal Transit Capital Investment Grants. This extract does not split New Starts from Core Capacity or Small Starts, and it does not split vehicles from guideway. Those cuts would require award documentation beyond dollars, 1 award, CFDA 20.500, and Hawaii. This page will not invent a project-type share. Formula 5307 dollars sit on a different CFDA number.

What the Hawaii 20.500 table omits

The extract has no project name, no mileage, and no ridership figure. Facts remain $375,000,000, 1 award, CFDA 20.500, and Hawaii. This page will not invent a ranking against other states’ 20.500 joins. Post-9/11 GI Bill on 64.028 is a VA listing, not a transit subset.

Hawaii federal spending and Hawaii programs place 20.500 among other listings. CFDA 20.500 is the national catalog line. All spending ties indexes other CFDA x state pairs. Mixing those shelves would invent a share of DOT spending the packet never computed. The $375,000,000 figure is the tagged pair only. One award remains a capital file, not a ridership ranking.

Where the 20.500 x Hawaii overlay lives

Start with Federal Transit Capital Investment Grants in Hawaii for the 1-award table behind $375,000,000. CFDA 20.500 is the nationwide listing. Hawaii federal spending and Hawaii programs give state context. All spending ties is the shelf for other program-by-state joins on the same obligation metric. One award totaling $375,000,000 remains a capital-style administrative file, not a ridership census. Project names and miles are not in this packet. Per-rider costs are omitted because they are not in the facts. The $375,000,000 row is the tagged pair only.

Questions

How much Federal Transit Capital Investment Grant funding is obligated in Hawaii?
USAspending.gov shows $375,000,000 in obligations for CFDA 20.500 with Hawaii as place of performance, across 1 award. The sum is a commitment total on an assistance award, not outlays and not Hawaii’s full transportation budget. Other DOT listings are outside this join unless they also carry 20.500.
Does 1 award mean 1 Hawaii transit project?
Not necessarily. Award count is a row count of assistance awards. It is not a project or station census. The packet does not name the recipient or project. See the Hawaii 20.500 overlay for the named line as USAspending stored it.
Does this include Hawaii’s formula transit grants?
No. This page is CFDA 20.500, Federal Transit Capital Investment Grants. Formula urban and rural transit programs use different CFDA numbers. Those dollars are not inside $375,000,000 unless the award also carries 20.500. The extract has no ridership table.
Is $375 million already spent on Hawaii transit construction?
Not on this metric. Obligations are recorded commitments on assistance awards. Outlays are payments from the Treasury. The $375,000,000 headline is the obligation rollup in SpendingVault’s extract. Construction draws and remaining balances are not published in this packet.

USAspending.gov CFDA program aggregates by place of performance state. Obligations are not outlays.
