New Empowering Rural America (New ERA) Program federal funding in Kentucky
New Empowering Rural America (New ERA) Program (CFDA 10.758) shows $494,532,247 in USAspending.gov obligations with Kentucky as place of performance. Four awards carry that total — a short list of large assistance rows, not four rural cooperatives as a census. The join is a USDA rural-energy listing crossed with a state location field, not Kentucky's entire agriculture or energy budget. The dollars are commitments, not Treasury outlays.
Key figures
- CFDA 10.758 in Kentucky shows $494,532,247 in USAspending obligations on 4 awards.
- New ERA is a USDA rural-energy listing, not Kentucky's full agriculture or energy budget.

- The total is commitments, not kilowatt-hours generated or a rural ranking.
Kentucky x 10.758 is a New ERA join, not a co-op census
This page pairs CFDA 10.758, NEW EMPOWERING RURAL AMERICA (NEW ERA) PROGRAM, with Kentucky place of performance. New ERA, in program language, supports rural electric cooperatives and related entities in energy projects. SpendingVault sums tagged obligations: $494,532,247 on 4 awards. The extract does not list cooperatives, megawatts, or counties. Treat the pair as a catalog intersection, not a ranking of which state is more rural, and not a claim that 4 awards equal 4 cooperatives.
Other USDA listings — rural utilities, SNAP administration, or different energy codes — sit outside $494,532,247 unless they also carry 10.758. Mixing New ERA with those codes would invent a combined rural figure the packet never computed. Correlation between this obligation sum and farm acreage is not causation. Acreage is not in the packet. Place of performance as Kentucky locates the tagged awards; it does not deposit $494,532,247 in cooperative accounts.
4 awards behind $494.5 million
Mean obligation is about $123,633,062 if $494,532,247 were divided evenly across 4 lines. That ratio is not a published grant size. A four-row extract can concentrate dollars in a few large assistance awards. Award count is a row count, including possible modifications. It is not a count of cooperatives, counties, or megawatts.
Four lines are scannable on the overlay. This page will not invent recipient names. Open New Empowering Rural America (New Era) Program in Kentucky for the stored table. Do not convert 4 into a map of Kentucky rural utilities. The $494,532,247 total remains an obligation rollup on tagged awards, not kilowatt-hours generated. Inspect named lines rather than inferring a project list.
New ERA obligations are not kilowatt-hours already generated
Rural-energy awards often obligate in large project rows and draw over construction schedules. The $494,532,247 headline is the obligation sum, not a punch-list of plants built and not a Treasury outlay total. No fiscal year is attached. A USDA announcement dated to a particular year is not automatically this join unless it uses CFDA 10.758, Kentucky geography, and the obligation metric.
The listing title is New Empowering Rural America (New ERA) Program. This extract does not split generation from transmission, and it does not split loans from grants if both can sit under the same CFDA. Those cuts would require award documentation beyond dollars, 4 awards, CFDA 10.758, and Kentucky. This page will not invent a share.
What the Kentucky New ERA table omits
The extract has no megawatt total, no cooperative list, and no county table. Facts remain $494,532,247, 4 awards, CFDA 10.758, and Kentucky. This page will not invent a ranking against other states' 10.758 joins. Generation and other project types can both sit in the file; the extract does not label them.
Kentucky federal spending and Kentucky programs place 10.758 among other listings. CFDA 10.758 is the national catalog line. All spending ties indexes other CFDA x state pairs. Mixing those shelves would invent a share of USDA spending the packet never computed. The $494,532,247 figure is the tagged pair only.
Where the 10.758 x Kentucky overlay lives
Start with New Empowering Rural America (New Era) Program in Kentucky for the 4-award table behind $494,532,247. CFDA 10.758 is the nationwide listing. Kentucky federal spending and Kentucky programs give state context. All spending ties is the shelf for other program-by-state joins on the same obligation metric. Four awards are assistance rows, not a cooperative census. Recipient names and megawatts are not in this packet.
Readers who need a different program or a different state should leave this URL rather than adding numbers by hand. The $494,532,247 figure is the tagged CFDA 10.758 × Kentucky pair only. USAspending.gov remains the source; SpendingVault republishes the join. Place of performance is a geography tag on awards, not proof that every dollar stayed inside Kentucky after obligation. If a later extract revises the rollup, this page's facts will be stale until the packet is rebuilt. Do not annualize $494,532,247 into a per-year run rate: no fiscal year is in the facts.
How to read the Kentucky × CFDA 10.758 pair
A ties page exists because two tables meet. One table is the assistance listing (CFDA 10.758). The other is place of performance as Kentucky. The headline $494,532,247 is the obligation sum on that intersection. It is not a forecast, not a budget request, and not an outlay. It is also not a claim that CFDA 10.758 caused Kentucky's economy to grow, or that Kentucky caused CFDA 10.758 awards to exist. Correlation between geography and a catalog code is the join — nothing more.
Use the internal links to step off this pair: the statewide spending shelf, the national program listing, the state's other programs, and the ties index. Each of those pages uses the same obligation metric unless a page says otherwise. If you need award-level names, open the overlay or the stored table rather than treating this narrative as a recipient directory. If you need a different metric — outlays, current-year only, or a different geography — that metric is not in this packet.
