A place-of-performance join: Air Transportation Support × MD-06
NAICS 488190 and congressional district MD-06 meet here. $973,590,218.99 is the USAspending.gov obligation sum on awards that carry both tags. It is not Other Support Activities For Air Transportation's nationwide total, not every federal dollar coded to Maryland 6th District (MD-06), and not an outlay register. The packet does not split inspection, maintenance, or other air-support lines inside 488190, and it does not split contract versus assistance. 3 is an action count: modifications and repeat awards add rows. Unique recipients are unpublished. This cell is not a hangar roster, a flight-hour log, or a named-MRO list.
Dividing $973,590,218.99 by 3 yields about $324,530,073 per award on average. That ratio is two packet facts. It is not a typical MRO contract, hangar line, or air-support award. Three awards is a thin award file. Do not treat MD-06's 488190 cell as a synonym for every Air Transportation Support account nationwide. Open Maryland 6th District (/districts/MD-06/) for the district table without this industry filter, NAICS 488190 (/industries/488190/) for NAICS 488190 without the MD-06 filter, Maryland federal spending (/states/md/) for every industry in the Maryland extract, and All spending ties (/ties/) for the rest of the join list. Quote those hubs as parents, not as addends to $973,590,218.99.
Other Support Activities For Air Transportation as a NAICS rollup, not a named-vendor list
USAspending labels industry 488190 as Other Support Activities For Air Transportation. That code produced $973,590,218.99 when crossed with Maryland 6th District (MD-06) place of performance. The industry-wide 488190 hub does not require MD-06 geography. The district hub does not require Air Transportation Support. Only this tie applies both filters, which is why it cites 3 awards. The packet does not split inspection, maintenance, or other air-support lines inside 488190, and it does not split contract versus assistance.
Correlation is not causation: Maryland 6th District (MD-06) did not cause $973,590,218.99 by existing as a large or small place. Population, outcome scores, and named facilities are not packet facts. The join is 488190 × MD-06 only. This cell is not a hangar roster, a flight-hour log, or a named-MRO list. 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.
Place of performance for Maryland 6th District (MD-06)
Maryland 6th District (MD-06) on this join is a USAspending geography field, not a claim that every dollar was disbursed to residents of that district. Awards can list MD-06 while later work occurs elsewhere. Awards tagged to other Maryland districts belong on those ties even when the industry is also 488190. Maryland 6th District (MD-06) is a numbered congressional place-of-performance code inside Maryland. Other Maryland districts are separate joins even when they reuse NAICS 488190. Confusing this join with Maryland statewide 488190 totals or MD-06's 236220 building-construction cell would be a different overlay.
Obligation math for this join
USAspending.gov records an obligation when the federal government commits funds on an award. $973,590,218.99 is that kind of sum for Other Support Activities For Air Transportation inside MD-06 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 $973,590,218.99 as given.
Maryland's own budget is a separate ledger. Mixing it with the 3-row Air Transportation Support cell leaves USAspending.gov. Treat 3 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 ($324,530,073) is a concentration statistic, not a typical MD-06 Air Transportation Support payment.

What this packet refuses to infer
Three awards is a thin award file. Volume can hide a few large assistance lines; the packet does not identify them. Unique recipients are unpublished. 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 $324,530,073) and the district share (3.5% of $27,489,268,187.93) are ratios of packet facts. Prefer Maryland 6th District and NAICS 488190 if the live tables moved.
Do not rank Maryland 6th District (MD-06) as more Air Transportation Support-dependent than neighboring districts on the strength of this cell alone. Neighboring geographies have their own 488190 ties with different dollar totals, or no published 488190 cell in this harvest. This snapshot holds $973,590,218.99 and 3 only. All spending ties is the index, not an addend. Obligations are not outlays. Correlation is not causation. Maryland 6th District (MD-06) also has a building-construction (236220) join in this harvest. Air support is not that construction code. California 51st and Nevada 4th also use 488190 as other geographies.
Questions
- How much Air Transportation Support spending is coded to Maryland 6th District (MD-06)?
- USAspending.gov lists $973,590,218.99 in Air Transportation Support (NAICS 488190) obligations across 3 awards coded to Maryland 6th District (MD-06).

- Does this include scheduled airline service in MD-06?
- NAICS 488190 is other support activities for air transportation, not scheduled passenger service. The packet does not split remaining support lines or contract versus assistance. $973,590,218.99 is the combined obligation sum inside MD-06 coding.

- Is $973,590,218.99 cash already paid in Maryland 6th District (MD-06)?
- 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.

Prefer the live district and industry hubs if the tables moved.
