National Highway Performance Program overlapping DOT — CFDA 20.279

The pair is National Highway Performance Program (Nhpp) × Department of Transportation. $5,216,946,246.40 is the obligation aggregate for rows that carry both CFDA 20.279 and awarding-agency 069. The join obligation $5,216,946,246.40 equals the CFDA program total of $5,216,946,246.40 in this extract, so this packet does not publish a leftover National Highway Performance Program slice at a second awarding agency. Correlation is not causation: the join does not prove that Department of Transportation caused National Highway Performance Program activity, only that USAspending coded the two keys together. It is not a state DOT ranking or a named highway-project roster.

SpendingVault indexes the cell from USAspending.gov. The catalog title on the program side is NATIONAL HIGHWAY PERFORMANCE PROGRAM (NHPP). The agency name on the awarding side is Department of Transportation. Neither label is a contractor, a place of performance, or a fiscal-year stamp — this packet publishes no fiscal year. Cite $5,216,946,246.40 as obligations on the National Highway Performance Program–DOT pair.

CFDA 20.279 as the National Highway Performance Program side

CFDA 20.279 is the Catalog of Federal Domestic Assistance identifier for National Highway Performance Program (Nhpp). The program-wide obligation total in this extract is $5,216,946,246.40. That figure is a program rollup, not a second headline for the Department of Transportation slice unless the two amounts match. Do not treat $5,216,946,246.40 as cash Treasury already sent. State DOTs, route numbers, and project descriptions are unpublished on this packet.

Open CFDA 20.279 at /programs/20.279/ for the program hub. That page is not this join: it can include other awarding agencies if the extract lists them, and it is still obligations rather than outlays. This ties page stays on CFDA 20.279 awarded by agency 069 only.

Agency 069, Department of Transportation

Department of Transportation is awarding-agency 069 on USAspending assistance rows. The agency hub Department of Transportation at /agencies/069/ rolls up every program that agency awards in the index, not only National Highway Performance Program. Reading $5,216,946,246.40 as Department of Transportation’s entire book would over-read this cell. The join is one CFDA inside one agency, not a department budget justification.

1,725 awards as a CFDA table, not a project census

The extract lists 1,725 awards on the National Highway Performance Program × Department of Transportation table. That is an award-record count, not a census of highway projects. Unique recipients are unpublished. Modifications can add rows without naming a new organization. Dividing $5,216,946,246.40 by 1,725 is not published here as a typical award size, because the packet does not say the rows are comparable.

Pavement rankings this NHPP–DOT join cannot support

An obligation is a legal commitment. An outlay is a payment. $5,216,946,246.40 is the former. Citing it as cash already cleared on National Highway Performance Program over-reads the field. The join cannot say that Department of Transportation specialized in National Highway Performance Program because of a policy success metric this packet omits. Keep $5,216,946,246.40 labeled as National Highway Performance Program (Nhpp) obligations awarded by Department of Transportation.

Budget justifications, program evaluations, and press releases answer other questions. They are not the source of this cell. If a chart mixes a different CFDA with Department of Transportation or a different awarding agency with National Highway Performance Program (Nhpp), the chart has left this join. State DOTs, route numbers, and project descriptions are unpublished on this packet.
