Other heavy and civil engineering construction federal obligations in Louisiana

What the 237990–Louisiana join is

NAICS 237990 and geography LA meet here. $790,642,505.92 is the USAspending.gov obligation sum on awards that carry both tags. It is not the nationwide residual heavy civil book, not Louisiana’s entire federal inflow, and not an outlay. Highway and water-sewer construction sit on other NAICS codes; 237990 is the residual heavy-civil bucket.

265 awards is a moderate civil list beside $790,642,505.92. A mid-size row count can still hold a large commitment if a few marine or flood-control vehicles dominate. The packet does not name a parish, a lock, or a dredge inside the extract. Treating 265 as a count of Louisiana levees would misread award records. Those labels are ordinary speech, not extra packet dollars.

Open Louisiana federal spending for every industry tagged to the state, NAICS 237990 for 237990 without a Louisiana filter, Louisiana industries for other Louisiana NAICS pairs, and All spending ties for joins outside this residual heavy civil cell. Do not add those parents into $790,642,505.92.

A Gulf civil book, not a parish census

Dividing $790,642,505.92 by 265 awards yields about $2.98 million per award. That mean is a ratio of two packet facts, not a typical New Orleans marine job and not a typical Baton Rouge flood-control line. Unique recipients are unpublished. 265 is not a count of miles of levee or cubic yards.

Louisiana geography invites a coastal-versus-river civil story. This extract does not split Orleans, Jefferson, or East Baton Rouge parishes. All share LA inside $790,642,505.92. Pennsylvania, Washington, Texas, and North Carolina also have 237990 cells; those dollars are not this total.

Nationwide 237990 without a Louisiana overlay is a different total

The national industry hub aggregates 237990 across every state. Louisiana’s statewide hub aggregates every NAICS with an LA tag. Only awards that carry both 237990 and Louisiana place of performance belong here, which is why this page cites 265 awards and $790,642,505.92.

Place of performance can follow a payee address, in-state work, or a reporting convention. 237990 awards coded to Texas, Mississippi, or Alabama do not enter this sum even if a contractor’s mailroom sits in New Orleans. The join cannot re-allocate dollars along a Gulf civil chain.

Obligations, not outlays, on the Louisiana 237990 cell

An obligation is a legal commitment. An outlay is a payment. $790,642,505.92 is the former. This packet has no outlay total, no fiscal-year split, and no de-obligation history. Citing the figure as fill already placed in Louisiana over-reads the field. 265 remains an award-record count, not a payment count.

What the Louisiana–237990 pair does not prove

A large residual heavy civil total in Louisiana does not mean the code caused Louisiana’s industry mix, and it does not connect these obligations to campaign contributions. Correlation is not causation. Flood maps and hurricane-season folklore are not USAspending columns here.

Keep $790,642,505.92 labeled as NAICS 237990 obligations with Louisiana place of performance. Louisiana federal spending still includes other industries that must not be folded into this residual heavy civil cell. NAICS 237990 is 237990 without the Louisiana filter. Louisiana industries lists sibling Louisiana codes.

How to cite heavy civil construction in Louisiana

A clean footnote names NAICS 237990 (residual heavy civil), Louisiana place of performance, $790,642,505.92 in obligations, and 265 awards on USAspending.gov. Keep the obligation word. Mean dollars per action remain about $2.98 million. Do not merge 237310 into this residual bucket. All spending ties indexes other pairs.

A later ingest can restate $790,642,505.92 without changing the join of 237990 and LA. Louisiana federal spending still mixes every Louisiana industry; do not quote that parent as 237990. NAICS 237990 is the national residual heavy civil code without the Louisiana tag. Louisiana industries keeps sibling Louisiana codes unmerged. 265 is a record count, including modifications, not a unique-vendor census. Keep the obligation label on $790,642,505.92. Correlation is not causation. Parish folklore is not a metro split in this packet.
