Highway planning (CFDA 20.205) in West Virginia 2nd (WV-02)

USAspending.gov records $1,041,850,745.44 in Highway Planning And Construction (CFDA 20.205) obligations with place of performance in West Virginia 2nd District (WV-02), across 1,036 awards. One thousand thirty-six highway awards equal about seven percent of WV-02’s district obligation total — a thick FHWA file, not a contractor roster. That pair is Highway Planning And Construction and West Virginia 2nd District (WV-02) — not West Virginia’s entire federal inflow, not Highway Planning And Construction nationwide, and not cash already paid. The cell is 7.2% of this district’s published obligation total ($14,422,367,137.55). Implied average obligation is about $1,005,647.44 ($1,041,850,745.44 ÷ 1,036). Correlation is not causation.

What the Highway planning–WV-02 join is

CFDA 20.205 and congressional district WV-02 meet here. $1,041,850,745.44 is the USAspending.gov obligation sum on awards that carry both tags. It is not Highway Planning And Construction’s nationwide total, not every federal dollar coded to West Virginia 2nd District (WV-02), and not an outlay register. The packet does not split planning from construction, and it does not name contractors. 1,036 is an action count: modifications and repeat awards add rows. Unique recipients are unpublished. It is not a lane-mile inventory, a project-letting calendar, or a named-contractor roster.

Dividing $1,041,850,745.44 by 1,036 yields about $1,005,647.44 per award on average. That ratio is two packet facts. It is not a published cost per mile and not a typical project. 1,036 rows is a thick planning-and-construction file: modifications add lines. Unique contractors are unpublished, and the implied mean is pulled down by volume. Do not treat WV-02’s 20.205 cell as a synonym for every Highway planning account nationwide. Open West Virginia 2nd District for the district table without this program filter, CFDA 20.205 for CFDA 20.205 without the WV-02 filter, West Virginia federal spending for every program in the West Virginia extract, and All spending ties for the rest of the join list. Quote those hubs as parents, not as addends to $1,041,850,745.44.

CFDA 20.205 as the Highway planning side

USAspending labels CFDA 20.205 as Highway Planning And Construction. That catalog number produced $1,041,850,745.44 when crossed with West Virginia 2nd District (WV-02) place of performance. The program hub does not require WV-02 geography. The district hub does not require Highway planning. Only this tie applies both filters, which is why it cites 1,036 awards. The packet does not split planning from construction, and it does not name contractors.

Correlation is not causation: West Virginia 2nd District (WV-02) did not cause $1,041,850,745.44 by existing as a large or small place, and VMT or lane miles figures are not packet facts. The join is 20.205 × WV-02 only. It is not a lane-mile inventory, a project-letting calendar, or a named-contractor roster. Do not invent contractors or award recipients to fill the gap. Campaign donations on FEC tables do not fund this USAspending cell; the datasets are separate.

West Virginia 2nd District (WV-02) as place of performance

West Virginia 2nd District (WV-02) on this join is a USAspending geography field, not a claim that every dollar was disbursed to residents of that district. Awards can list WV-02 while later work occurs elsewhere. Awards tagged to other West Virginia districts belong on those ties even when the CFDA is also 20.205. West Virginia 2nd District (WV-02) is a numbered congressional place-of-performance code inside West Virginia. Other West Virginia districts are separate joins even when they reuse CFDA 20.205. West Virginia 2nd District (WV-02) is a numbered geography. West Virginia 1st’s SSDI pair on this slice is a different CFDA and a different district.

West Virginia federal spending shows how CFDA 20.205 sits beside other programs in the same state extract. $1,041,850,745.44 is one district-program column, not the state table. This packet does not split West Virginia 2nd District (WV-02) 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 $14,422,367,137.55; $1,041,850,745.44 is the Highway planning slice of that denominator.

Obligations, not outlays

USAspending.gov records an obligation when the federal government commits funds on an award. $1,041,850,745.44 is that kind of sum for Highway Planning And Construction inside WV-02 coding. Later deobligations, recoveries, or payment schedules can change what leaves the Treasury without this join rewriting itself into a cash register. This packet does not split assistance from contracts. Net obligations can include downward adjustments. This page reports $1,041,850,745.44 as given. Treating $1,041,850,745.44 as pavement already placed confuses obligation with outlay.

West Virginia’s own budget is a separate ledger. Mixing it with the 1,036-row Highway planning cell leaves USAspending.gov. Treat 1,036 as award records in the aggregate, not unique vendors and not projects, miles, 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 ($1,005,647.44) is a concentration statistic, not a published cost per mile and not a typical project. South Dakota At-Large, Vermont At-Large, New York 22nd, Delaware At-Large, and Texas 13th reuse 20.205 on other ties.

How to cite Highway planning in WV-02

Cite USAspending.gov: Highway Planning And Construction (CFDA 20.205) obligated $1,041,850,745.44 on 1,036 awards coded to West Virginia 2nd District (WV-02). Name Highway Planning And Construction and West Virginia 2nd District (WV-02) together. Keep the obligation word. If West Virginia 2nd District or CFDA 20.205 has refreshed, prefer the live hub over this snapshot for current rows. The pair is not a lane-mile inventory, a project-letting calendar, or a named-contractor roster. 7.2% of $14,422,367,137.55 is the district share on this packet, not a performance score. An fhwa highway-statistics table is a different series unless it uses CFDA 20.205, WV-02 geography, and the obligation metric.

Keep Highway Planning And Construction, West Virginia 2nd District (WV-02), $1,041,850,745.44, and 1,036 awards together. All spending ties indexes other pairs. CFDA 20.205 is the 20.205 parent without a WV-02 filter. West Virginia federal spending is the West Virginia parent. Do not add those parents to this cell. Sharing a district with Highway planning does not mean campaign donations funded these awards, and it does not convert obligations into outlays. This page reports one USAspending join. The extract omits projects, contractors, or lane miles.

Reading a thick Highway planning file in WV-02

1,036 rows is a thick planning-and-construction file: modifications add lines. Unique contractors are unpublished, and the implied mean is pulled down by volume. A large row count makes a program split tempting; the packet still does not supply one. A small row count makes a named-recipient story tempting; the packet still does not name projects, contractors, or lane miles. The implied mean (about $1,005,647.44) and the district share (7.2% of $14,422,367,137.55) are ratios of packet facts. Prefer West Virginia 2nd District and CFDA 20.205 if the live tables moved.

Questions

How much Highway planning spending is coded to West Virginia 2nd District (WV-02)?
USAspending.gov lists $1,041,850,745.44 in Highway Planning And Construction obligations across 1,036 awards with place of performance in West Virginia 2nd District (WV-02). CFDA 20.205 × WV-02 is an obligation join, not an outlay and not West Virginia’s complete federal ledger. The cell is 7.2% of the district’s published total ($14,422,367,137.55). Unique recipients are unpublished. Average obligation is about $1,005,647.44, a ratio of those two facts only.
Do 1,036 awards mean 1,036 projects, miles, or contractors in WV-02?
No. Award count is a row count of USAspending actions and can include continuations and modifications. It is not a count of projects, miles, or contractors. The packet does not name recipients. See West Virginia 2nd District for named lines as USAspending stored them. The packet does not split planning from construction, and it does not name contractors.
Is $1,041,850,745.44 cash already paid in West Virginia 2nd District (WV-02)?
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 $1,041,850,745.44 as pavement already placed confuses those terms. Later ingests can revise 1,036 awards. Prefer the live district and program hubs if the tables moved.
Where is the live Highway planning–WV-02 table?
West Virginia 2nd District is the district parent and CFDA 20.205 is the program parent. West Virginia federal spending covers West Virginia without the district×program intersection as the headline. All spending ties lists other pairs. Those hubs are not addends. Keep both sides of the join when citing $1,041,850,745.44. Place of performance is WV-02. Obligations are not outlays.
