Heavy Civil Construction (NAICS 237990) in Louisiana 1st District (LA-01)
Place-of-performance LA-01 crossed with Other Heavy And Civil Engineering Construction (NAICS 237990) yields $2,341,914,603.40 in USAspending.gov obligations on 49 awards. Forty-nine other-heavy-and-civil-engineering awards equal about fifteen percent of Louisiana 1st District's district obligation total — a compact 237990 file, not a levee-mile census. That pair is Other Heavy And Civil Engineering Construction and Louisiana 1st District (LA-01) — not Louisiana's entire federal inflow, not Other Heavy And Civil Engineering Construction nationwide, and not cash already paid. The cell is 14.7% of this district's published obligation total ($15,981,764,617.41). Implied average obligation is about $47,794,175.58 ($2,341,914,603.40 ÷ 49). Correlation is not causation.

The Louisiana 1st District (LA-01) filter on Heavy Civil Construction
NAICS 237990 and congressional district LA-01 meet here. $2,341,914,603.40 is the USAspending.gov obligation sum on awards that carry both tags. It is not the nationwide Other Heavy And Civil Engineering Construction total, not every federal dollar coded to Louisiana 1st District (LA-01), and not an outlay register. The packet does not split marine from other 237990 heavy civil work, and it does not split contract versus assistance. 49 is an action count: modifications and repeat awards add rows. Unique recipients are unpublished. This cell is not a levee-mile census, a named-project roster, or a cubic-yard earthwork log.
Dividing $2,341,914,603.40 by 49 yields about $47,794,175.58 per award on average. That ratio is two packet facts. It is not a typical contract, grant, or benefit line. 49 awards is a compact heavy-civil file. Project names, river miles, and contractors are unpublished. Treat 49 as action records. Do not treat LA-01's 237990 cell as a synonym for every Heavy Civil Construction account nationwide. Open Louisiana 1st District for the district table without this industry filter, NAICS 237990 for NAICS 237990 without a LA-01 filter, Louisiana federal spending for every industry in the Louisiana extract, and All spending ties for the rest of the join list. Quote those hubs as parents, not as addends to $2,341,914,603.40.
The Other Heavy And Civil Engineering Construction industry rollup
USAspending labels industry 237990 as Other Heavy And Civil Engineering Construction. That code produced $2,341,914,603.40 when crossed with Louisiana 1st District (LA-01) place of performance. The industry-wide 237990 hub does not require LA-01 geography. The district hub does not require Heavy Civil Construction. Only this tie applies both filters, which is why it cites 49 awards. The packet does not split marine from other 237990 heavy civil work, and it does not split contract versus assistance.
Correlation is not causation: Louisiana 1st District (LA-01) did not cause $2,341,914,603.40 by existing as a large or small place. Population, outcome scores, and named facilities are not packet facts. The join is 237990 × LA-01 only. This cell is not a levee-mile census, a named-project roster, or a cubic-yard earthwork log. 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 LA-01 stamp
Louisiana 1st District (LA-01) on this join is a USAspending geography field, not a claim that every dollar was disbursed to residents of that district. Awards can list LA-01 while later work occurs elsewhere. Awards tagged to other Louisiana districts belong on those ties even when the industry is also 237990. Louisiana 1st District (LA-01) is a numbered congressional place-of-performance code inside Louisiana. Other Louisiana districts are separate joins even when they reuse NAICS 237990. Louisiana 1st District (LA-01) is a numbered place-of-performance stamp inside Louisiana. Other Louisiana districts keep their own 237990 ties if they exist.
Louisiana federal spending shows how NAICS 237990 sits beside other industries in the same state extract. $2,341,914,603.40 is one district-industry column, not the state table. This packet does not split Louisiana 1st District (LA-01) by county, city, or census tract. Awards that carry a different NAICS stay on those other ties even if the work sounds related to Other Heavy And Civil Engineering Construction. The district-wide obligation total published here is $15,981,764,617.41; $2,341,914,603.40 is the Heavy Civil Construction slice of that denominator.
USAspending obligations on this pair
USAspending.gov records an obligation when the federal government commits funds on an award. $2,341,914,603.40 is that kind of sum for Other Heavy And Civil Engineering Construction inside LA-01 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 industry rollup; this packet does not split them. Net obligations can include downward adjustments. This page reports $2,341,914,603.40 as given.
Louisiana's own budget is a separate ledger. Mixing it with the 49-row Heavy Civil Construction cell leaves USAspending.gov. Treat 49 as award records in the aggregate, not unique vendors. 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 ($47,794,175.58) is a concentration statistic, not a typical LA-01 Heavy Civil Construction payment.
Citing $2,341,914,603.40 without dropping a join side
Cite USAspending.gov: Other Heavy And Civil Engineering Construction (NAICS 237990) obligated $2,341,914,603.40 on 49 awards coded to Louisiana 1st District (LA-01). Name Other Heavy And Civil Engineering Construction and Louisiana 1st District (LA-01) together. Keep the obligation word. If Louisiana 1st District or NAICS 237990 has refreshed, prefer the live hub over this snapshot for current rows. The pair is not a levee-mile census, a named-project roster, or a cubic-yard earthwork log. 14.7% of $15,981,764,617.41 is the district share on this packet, not a performance score.
Row count versus dollar concentration
49 awards is a compact heavy-civil file. Project names, river miles, and contractors are unpublished. Treat 49 as action records. Do not recode 237990 as 236220 building construction. That building NAICS appears on other district ties in this harvest. Levee folklore is not a packet split. A large row count makes a product 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 $47,794,175.58) and the district share (14.7% of $15,981,764,617.41) are ratios of packet facts. Prefer Louisiana 1st District and NAICS 237990 if the live tables moved.
Questions
- How much Heavy Civil Construction spending is coded to Louisiana 1st District (LA-01)?
- USAspending.gov lists $2,341,914,603.40 in Other Heavy And Civil Engineering Construction obligations across 49 awards with place of performance in Louisiana 1st District (LA-01). NAICS 237990 × LA-01 is an obligation join, not an outlay and not Louisiana's complete federal ledger. The cell is 14.7% of the district's published total ($15,981,764,617.41). Unique recipients are unpublished. Average obligation is about $47,794,175.58, a ratio of those two facts only.
- Does $2,341,914,603.40 include every Heavy Civil Construction product line in LA-01?
- The packet publishes one NAICS rollup. The packet does not split marine from other 237990 heavy civil work, and it does not split contract versus assistance. $2,341,914,603.40 is the combined obligation sum for NAICS 237990 inside LA-01 coding. This page will not invent a product pie or name contractors. Open NAICS 237990 and Louisiana 1st District to inspect parent tables. 49 remains an action count, not a product count.
- Is $2,341,914,603.40 cash already paid in Louisiana 1st District (LA-01)?
- 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 $2,341,914,603.40 as checks already cleared in Louisiana 1st District (LA-01) confuses those terms. Later ingests can revise 49 awards. Prefer the live district and industry hubs if the tables moved.
- Why is the implied average $47,794,175.58 not a typical award?
- The average is $2,341,914,603.40 divided by 49 awards, about $47,794,175.58. 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.
