Other heavy and civil engineering construction federal obligations in Washington

What the 237990–Washington join is

NAICS 237990 and geography WA meet here. $773,458,743.71 is the USAspending.gov obligation sum on awards that carry both tags. It is not the nationwide residual heavy civil book, not Washington’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.

278 awards is a moderate civil list beside $773,458,743.71. A mid-size row count can still hold a large commitment if a few marine or heavy-civil vehicles dominate. The packet does not name a dam, lock, or port inside the extract. Treating 278 as a count of Washington dams would misread award records. Those labels are ordinary speech, not extra packet dollars.

Open Washington federal spending for every industry tagged to the state, NAICS 237990 for 237990 without a Washington filter, Washington industries for other Washington NAICS pairs, and All spending ties for joins outside this residual heavy civil cell. Do not add those parents into $773,458,743.71.

A Pacific civil book, not a county census

Dividing $773,458,743.71 by 278 awards yields about $2.78 million per award. That mean is a ratio of two packet facts, not a typical Seattle marine job and not a typical Columbia River heavy-civil line. Unique recipients are unpublished. 278 is not a count of projects, locks, or miles.

Washington geography invites a Puget Sound versus Columbia Basin civil story. This extract does not split those regions. All share WA inside $773,458,743.71. Pennsylvania, Louisiana, Texas, and North Carolina also have 237990 cells; those dollars are not this total.

Nationwide 237990 without a Washington overlay is a different total

The national industry hub aggregates 237990 across every state. Washington’s statewide hub aggregates every NAICS with an WA tag. Only awards that carry both 237990 and Washington place of performance belong here, which is why this page cites 278 awards and $773,458,743.71.

Place of performance can follow a payee address, in-state work, or a reporting convention. 237990 awards coded to Oregon, Idaho, or Alaska do not enter this sum even if a contractor’s mailroom sits in Seattle. The join cannot re-allocate dollars along a Pacific civil chain.

Obligations, not outlays, on the Washington 237990 cell

An obligation is a legal commitment. An outlay is a payment. $773,458,743.71 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 Washington over-reads the field. 278 remains an award-record count, not a payment count.

What the Washington–237990 pair does not prove

A large residual heavy civil total in Washington does not mean the code caused Washington’s industry mix, and it does not connect these obligations to campaign contributions. Correlation is not causation. Dam schedules and port folklore are not USAspending columns here.

Keep $773,458,743.71 labeled as NAICS 237990 obligations with Washington place of performance. Washington federal spending still includes other industries that must not be folded into this residual heavy civil cell. NAICS 237990 is 237990 without the Washington filter. Washington industries lists sibling Washington codes.

How to cite heavy civil construction in Washington

A clean footnote names NAICS 237990 (residual heavy civil), Washington place of performance, $773,458,743.71 in obligations, and 278 awards on USAspending.gov. Keep the obligation word. Mean dollars per action remain about $2.78 million. Do not merge 237310 into this residual bucket. All spending ties indexes other pairs.

A later ingest can restate $773,458,743.71 without changing the join of 237990 and WA. Washington federal spending still mixes every Washington industry; do not quote that parent as 237990. NAICS 237990 is the national residual heavy civil code without the Washington tag. Washington industries keeps sibling Washington codes unmerged. 278 is a record count, including modifications, not a unique-vendor census. Keep the obligation label on $773,458,743.71. Correlation is not causation. Sound-versus-basin folklore is not a metro split in this packet.
