Nonferrous Metal Rolling federal obligations in Massachusetts

What NAICS 331491 and Massachusetts share on one row

NAICS 331491 and place-of-performance state MA meet here. $397,530,496.67 is the obligation sum on awards that carry both tags. It is not every federal award in Massachusetts, not the nationwide Nonferrous Metal (Except Copper And Aluminum) Rolling, Drawing, And Extruding total, and not cash already paid. Western-Massachusetts mill folklore and statewide specialty-metal stories may send a reader here. Those stories are not a mill list and not a tonnage census.

356 award actions sit behind that dollar figure — hundreds of award actions behind a nine-figure obligation total. Hundreds of rows can mix modifications with larger instruments. The join does not rank Massachusetts against other states and does not name alloys inside the extract.

Open Massachusetts federal spending for the filtered table, NAICS 331491 for the next hub, Massachusetts industries for the remaining hub, and All spending ties for other pairs.

356 nonferrous-rolling actions under a Massachusetts geography tag

Dividing $397,530,496.67 by 356 yields about $1,116,658.70 per award on average. That average hides contracts, grants, and other instruments. It is not a typical mill contract. NAICS 331491 excludes copper and aluminum rolling by definition. Those codes sit on other industry hubs. Do not collapse them because all three can appear in the same state.

Western-massachusetts mill folklore and statewide specialty-metal stories is a coding conversation, not a packet field. Recipient rows live on the industry and state hubs, not in this narrative's extra columns.

NAICS 331491 without a Massachusetts overlay is a different total

The NAICS 331491 page aggregates NAICS 331491 without requiring MA geography. The Massachusetts federal spending page aggregates all agencies and industries with Massachusetts place of performance. Massachusetts industries lists other industry cells in the same state. Only this tie applies both the 331491 filter and the MA filter, which is why it cites 356 awards and $397,530,496.67.

Place of performance in Massachusetts is a USAspending geography field. Awards can list MA while work occurs in Connecticut or New York. 331491 awards coded to those states do not sit in this total even if a mill's mailroom is in Springfield. This packet does not split Springfield from Boston or Worcester.

Obligations, not outlays

An obligation is a legal commitment. An outlay is a payment. $397,530,496.67 is the former. This packet has no outlay total, no fiscal-year split, and no de-obligation history. Citing the figure as money already spent in Massachusetts over-reads the field.

Award count 356 is a record count, not a payment count. Readers who need transaction-level detail should use Massachusetts federal spending, NAICS 331491, and Massachusetts industries. All spending ties does not hide a blended statewide total under this slug.

What this pair does not prove

A large 331491 total in Massachusetts does not mean mills caused Massachusetts's industrial mix, and it does not connect these obligations to campaign contributions. Correlation between mill geography and metal awards is expected; it is not a finding about readiness or waste.

Keep $397,530,496.67 labeled as NAICS 331491 obligations with Massachusetts place of performance. FEC individual contributions are a different dataset. An industry name that appears near a donor occupation is a coincidence of labeling, not a cash pipeline into USAspending.

How to cite the Massachusetts-331491 pair

A clean footnote names NAICS 331491 (Nonferrous Metal (Except Copper And Aluminum) Rolling, Drawing, And Extruding), Massachusetts place of performance, $397,530,496.67 in obligations, and 356 awards on USAspending.gov. Keep the obligation word. Do not call $397,530,496.67 cash outlays. Mean dollars per action remain about $1,116,658.70 if you divide those two facts — a ratio, not a typical mill contract.

Massachusetts federal spending, NAICS 331491, Massachusetts industries, and All spending ties keep the same unit. A later ingest can restate $397,530,496.67 without changing the join definition. Rewrite only the sentence whose source moved. Springfield-versus-Boston folklore is not a metro split in this packet. Mill names belong on the overlay if they appear as recipients; they are not extra packet dollars. Keep the obligation label in every reuse. Correlation is not causation.

Questions

How much has NAICS 331491 obligated in Massachusetts?

USAspending.gov records $397,530,496.67 in obligations for NAICS 331491 with Massachusetts place of performance, covering 356 awards. That is an obligation total, not an outlay total, and not the nationwide Nonferrous rolling total. Original filings remain on the source sites.

Does this total include every Massachusetts metal mill?

The extract lists 356 award actions totaling $397,530,496.67. Average obligation per award is about $1,116,658.70, a ratio of two packet facts, not a typical mill contract. Unique recipients are not published here, and the row count is not a company census. Original filings remain on the source sites.

Is this a Springfield-only nonferrous total?

No. $397,530,496.67 and 356 awards are statewide Massachusetts place of performance. This packet does not split Springfield from Boston or Worcester. A regional cut would be a different extract, not this NAICS-state join. Original filings remain on the source sites.

Where are the live Massachusetts and NAICS 331491 tables?

Massachusetts federal spending shows statewide spending. NAICS 331491 shows NAICS 331491 without a state filter. Massachusetts industries lists other Massachusetts industry cells. All spending ties lists other pairs. This page is the join of those two filters, not a restatement of either hub. Original filings remain on the source sites.
