Highway planning and construction in Nebraska 3rd (NE-03)

How $793,014,497.20 attaches to both join sides

This page exists because two tables meet: catalog 20.205 and congressional district NE-03. $793,014,497.20 is the USAspending.gov obligation sum on awards that carry both tags. It is not Highway Planning And Construction nationwide, not the full $7,569,945,286.17 district book, and not an outlay register. The packet does not split planning from construction phases and does not name routes. 292 is an action count — modifications and continuations add rows. Unique recipients are unpublished. The pair is not a mile-of-road inventory, a project-site map, or a named-contractor file.

The join is a Highway Planning and Construction (CFDA 20.205) catalog line, not a letting schedule. $793,014,497.20 sits next to a district-wide obligation total of $7,569,945,286.17; the 10.5% share is arithmetic, not a scoreboard of Nebraska districts. District 90 and 98 placeholders are omitted from this harvest. Obligations are not outlays. Michigan 1st’s 616-row highway pair is a different state. Do not add NE-03 and MI-01 as one FHWA book.

Program 20.205 without a project pie

USAspending titles CFDA 20.205 as Highway Planning And Construction. Crossing that catalog with Nebraska 3rd District (NE-03) place of performance produced $793,014,497.20. The national 20.205 hub does not require NE-03. The district hub does not require Highway construction. Only this tie applies both filters, which is why it cites 292 awards. The packet does not split planning from construction phases and does not name routes.

Correlation is not causation: Nebraska 3rd District (NE-03) did not generate $793,014,497.20 merely by existing as a geography. Population, outcome scores, and named facilities are not packet facts. The join is 20.205 × NE-03 only. It is not a mile-of-road inventory, a project-site map, or a named-contractor file. Do not invent contractors or award recipients. FEC contribution tables do not fund this USAspending cell; the datasets are separate.

Why Nebraska 3rd District (NE-03) is not statewide Highway construction

Nebraska 3rd District (NE-03) here is a USAspending place-of-performance field, not proof that every dollar was disbursed to residents of that district. Awards can list NE-03 while later activity occurs elsewhere. Awards tagged to other Nebraska districts belong on those ties even when the CFDA is also 20.205. Nebraska 3rd District (NE-03) is a numbered congressional place-of-performance code inside Nebraska. Sister Nebraska districts remain separate joins even when they reuse CFDA 20.205. Nebraska 3rd District (NE-03) is not Nebraska 2nd. The Medicare Part D pair on NE-02 uses CFDA 93.770, not 20.205.

Nebraska federal spending shows how CFDA 20.205 sits beside other programs in the Nebraska extract. $793,014,497.20 is one district-program column, not the state table. This packet does not split Nebraska 3rd District (NE-03) by county, city, or census tract. Awards that carry a different CFDA stay on those other ties even if the work sounds related to Highway Planning And Construction. The district-wide obligation total published here is $7,569,945,286.17; $793,014,497.20 is the Highway construction slice of that denominator.

Deobligations can still move the cell

USAspending.gov records an obligation when the federal government commits funds on an award. $793,014,497.20 is that kind of sum for Highway Planning And Construction inside NE-03 coding. Later deobligations, recoveries, or payment schedules can change what leaves the Treasury without rewriting this join into a cash register. Assistance and contract awards can share the same CFDA rollup; this packet does not split them. Net obligations can include downward adjustments. This page reports $793,014,497.20 as given.

Nebraska’s own budget is a separate ledger. Mixing it with the 292-row Highway construction cell leaves USAspending.gov. Treat 292 as award records in the aggregate, not unique vendors. 292 is not a count of miles, projects, or contractors. 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 ($2,715,803.07) is a concentration statistic, not a typical project cost or a posted per-mile figure.

Using Nebraska 3rd District and CFDA 20.205 as overlays

Cite USAspending.gov: Highway Planning And Construction (CFDA 20.205) obligated $793,014,497.20 on 292 awards coded to Nebraska 3rd District (NE-03). Name Highway Planning And Construction and Nebraska 3rd District (NE-03) together. Keep the obligation word. If Nebraska 3rd District or CFDA 20.205 has refreshed, prefer the live hub over this snapshot for current rows. The pair is not a mile-of-road inventory, a project-site map, or a named-contractor file. 10.5% of $7,569,945,286.17 is the district share on this packet, not a performance score. Michigan 1st’s 616-row highway pair is a different state. Do not add NE-03 and MI-01 as one FHWA book.

No contractors, no FEC path, no fiscal year

292 awards is a moderate-to-thick highway file. Modifications add rows. Unique contractors are unpublished. A large row count makes a project 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 $2,715,803.07) and the district share (10.5% of $7,569,945,286.17) are ratios of packet facts. Prefer Nebraska 3rd District and CFDA 20.205 if the live tables moved.
