DOE Science assistance in Michigan 7th District (MI-07)
Place-of-performance MI-07 crossed with Office Of Science Financial Assistance Program (CFDA 81.049) yields $1,367,330,919.49 in USAspending.gov obligations on 71 awards. Seventy-one Office of Science Financial Assistance awards equal about nine percent of MI-07’s district obligation total, a larger district share than CA-50’s same-CFDA pair. That pair is Office Of Science Financial Assistance Program and Michigan 7th District (MI-07) — not Michigan’s entire federal inflow, not Office Of Science Financial Assistance Program nationwide, and not cash already paid. The cell is 9.0% of this district’s published obligation total ($15,258,988,742.72). Implied average obligation is about $19,258,181.96 ($1,367,330,919.49 ÷ 71). Correlation is not causation.

The Michigan 7th District (MI-07) filter on DOE Science
CFDA 81.049 and congressional district MI-07 meet here. $1,367,330,919.49 is the USAspending.gov obligation sum on awards that carry both tags. It is not Office Of Science Financial Assistance Program’s nationwide total, not every federal dollar coded to Michigan 7th District (MI-07), and not an outlay register. The packet does not split Office of Science programs by office and does not name national labs. 71 is an action count: modifications and repeat awards add rows. Unique recipients are unpublished. It is not a laboratory roster, a user-facility census, or a named-grantee file.
Dividing $1,367,330,919.49 by 71 yields about $19,258,181.96 per award on average. That ratio is two packet facts. It is not a typical DOE grant size or a posted per-facility figure. 71 awards is a compact science-assistance file. Same CFDA 81.049 as California 50th District, different geography and different dollar share. Do not treat MI-07’s 81.049 cell as a synonym for every DOE Science account nationwide. Open Michigan 7th District for the district table without this program filter, CFDA 81.049 for CFDA 81.049 without the MI-07 filter, Michigan federal spending for every program in the Michigan extract, and All spending ties for the rest of the join list. Quote those hubs as parents, not as addends to $1,367,330,919.49.
The DOE Science catalog line
USAspending labels CFDA 81.049 as Office Of Science Financial Assistance Program. That catalog number produced $1,367,330,919.49 when crossed with Michigan 7th District (MI-07) place of performance. The program-wide 81.049 hub does not require MI-07 geography. The district hub does not require DOE Science. Only this tie applies both filters, which is why it cites 71 awards. The packet does not split Office of Science programs by office and does not name national labs.
Correlation is not causation: Michigan 7th District (MI-07) did not “cause” $1,367,330,919.49 by existing as a large or small place. Population, outcome scores, and named facilities are not packet facts. The join is 81.049 × MI-07 only. It is not a laboratory roster, a user-facility census, or a named-grantee file. 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.
Reading the MI-07 stamp
Michigan 7th District (MI-07) on this join is a USAspending geography field, not a claim that every dollar was disbursed to residents of that district. Awards can list MI-07 while later work occurs elsewhere. Awards tagged to other Michigan districts belong on those ties even when the CFDA is also 81.049. Michigan 7th District (MI-07) is a numbered congressional place-of-performance code inside Michigan. Other Michigan districts are separate joins even when they reuse CFDA 81.049. Michigan 7th District (MI-07) also hosts Title I (CFDA 84.010) on this slice. Education dollars are not Office of Science dollars.
Michigan federal spending shows how CFDA 81.049 sits beside other programs in the same state extract. $1,367,330,919.49 is one district-program column, not the state table. This packet does not split Michigan 7th District (MI-07) by county, city, or census tract. Awards that carry a different CFDA stay on those other ties even if the work sounds related to Office Of Science Financial Assistance Program. The district-wide obligation total published here is $15,258,988,742.72; $1,367,330,919.49 is the DOE Science slice of that denominator.
USAspending obligations on this pair
USAspending.gov records an obligation when the federal government commits funds on an award. $1,367,330,919.49 is that kind of sum for Office Of Science Financial Assistance Program inside MI-07 coding. Later deobligations, recoveries, or payment schedules can change what leaves the Treasury without this join rewriting itself 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 $1,367,330,919.49 as given.
Michigan’s own budget is a separate ledger. Mixing it with the 71-row DOE Science cell leaves USAspending.gov. Treat 71 as award records in the aggregate, not unique vendors. 71 is not a count of labs, beamlines, or investigators. 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 ($19,258,181.96) is a concentration statistic, not a typical DOE grant size or a posted per-facility figure.
Citing $1,367,330,919.49 without dropping a join side
Cite USAspending.gov: Office Of Science Financial Assistance Program (CFDA 81.049) obligated $1,367,330,919.49 on 71 awards coded to Michigan 7th District (MI-07). Name Office Of Science Financial Assistance Program and Michigan 7th District (MI-07) together. Keep the obligation word. If Michigan 7th District or CFDA 81.049 has refreshed, prefer the live hub over this snapshot for current rows. The pair is not a laboratory roster, a user-facility census, or a named-grantee file. 9.0% of $15,258,988,742.72 is the district share on this packet, not a performance score. Michigan 3rd District’s Medicare HI pair is a different CFDA on a different Michigan geography. Do not fold those Michigan cells together.
Row count versus dollar concentration
71 awards is a compact science-assistance file. Same CFDA 81.049 as California 50th District, different geography and different dollar share. 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 $19,258,181.96) and the district share (9.0% of $15,258,988,742.72) are ratios of packet facts. Prefer Michigan 7th District and CFDA 81.049 if the live tables moved.
Questions
- How much DOE Science spending is coded to Michigan 7th District (MI-07)?
- USAspending.gov lists $1,367,330,919.49 in Office Of Science Financial Assistance Program obligations across 71 awards with place of performance in Michigan 7th District (MI-07). CFDA 81.049 × MI-07 is an obligation join, not an outlay and not Michigan’s complete federal ledger. The cell is 9.0% of the district’s published total ($15,258,988,742.72). Unique recipients are unpublished. Average obligation is about $19,258,181.96, a ratio of those two facts only.
- Does $1,367,330,919.49 include every DOE Science project in MI-07?
- The packet publishes one CFDA rollup. The packet does not split Office of Science programs by office and does not name national labs. $1,367,330,919.49 is the combined obligation sum for CFDA 81.049 inside MI-07 coding. This page will not invent a project pie or name contractors. Open CFDA 81.049 and Michigan 7th District to inspect parent tables. 71 remains an action count, not a count of labs, beamlines, or investigators.
- Is $1,367,330,919.49 cash already paid in Michigan 7th District (MI-07)?
- 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 $1,367,330,919.49 as checks already cleared in Michigan 7th District (MI-07) confuses those terms. Later ingests can revise 71 awards. Prefer the live district and program hubs if the tables moved.
- Why is the implied average $19,258,181.96 not a typical award?
- The average is $1,367,330,919.49 divided by 71 awards, about $19,258,181.96. Thick files pull the mean down; thin files pull it up. Neither case publishes a typical instrument. Modifications add rows. Recipients are unpublished. Use the ratio only as a concentration statistic.
