Outdoor Recreation Acquisition, Development and Planning in FY2025
USAspending.gov records $962,497,432.51 in obligations for CFDA 15.916, Outdoor Recreation Acquisition, Development and Planning, in fiscal year 2025, across 1,412 awards. One thousand four hundred twelve records is a high-count assistance file. The implied mean is about $681,655.40 per award. The program’s published extract is $1,805,100,946.52 on 2,827 awards, so FY2025 is a large slice — more than half the published dollars — without being the entire book.

What the 15.916 × FY2025 join is
CFDA 15.916 and fiscal year 2025 meet here. $962,497,432.51 is the obligation sum on awards that carry both tags. An outdoor-recreation award coded to another year is out. A FY2025 award under a different Interior or LWCF-adjacent CFDA is out even if the park sounds related. This packet does not name parks, states, or contractors. Unique recipients are unpublished.
Program-wide 2,827 awards totaling $1,805,100,946.52 remain the parent. Open CFDA 15.916, FY2025 federal spending, All programs, and All spending ties for the program book, the year hub, sibling codes, and other pairs. Do not add those pages into $962,497,432.51.
1,412 actions versus 2,827 program-wide
Dividing $962,497,432.51 by 1,412 yields about $681,655.40. State and local recreation grants often post many project rows plus revisions. 1,412 is not 1,412 parks and not 1,412 unique builders. Do not invent contractor names.
FY2025 dollars sit near half of the $1,805,100,946.52 extract — a descriptive share of packet facts, not a finding that outdoor recreation “peaked.” Correlation is not causation. Other years are not this page.
Not an acreage or visitation score
$962,497,432.51 does not measure acres acquired, trail miles, or visitor days. Those series are unpublished here. The cell sums obligations with CFDA 15.916 and a FY2025 tag. Catalog title text is the heading, not an outcome. This page does not split the total by state or city park.
Obligations, not outlays
An obligation is a legal commitment. An outlay is a payment. $962,497,432.51 is the former. Land-acquisition and construction vehicles can obligate in one year and close later. Citing the figure as cash already spent on parks over-reads the field. This packet has no outlay total and no match-rate column.
Keep both keys on every footnote. FY2025 is the federal fiscal year on the award records.
How to cite CFDA 15.916 in FY2025
A clean footnote names Outdoor Recreation Acquisition, Development and Planning (CFDA 15.916), fiscal year 2025, $962,497,432.51 in obligations, and 1,412 awards on USAspending.gov. Keep the obligation word. The compact $962 million is that cell rounded. Mean dollars per action remain about $681,655.40 if you divide the two facts.
Prefer CFDA 15.916 if the program table moved. FY2025 federal spending still includes every other CFDA tagged to that year. All programs and All spending ties keep sibling codes and other pairs in view. A later ingest can restate $962,497,432.51 without changing the join definition.
A large recreation slice without an acreage table
One thousand four hundred twelve awards totaling $962,497,432.51 sit near half of the $1,805,100,946.52 program extract on 2,827 awards. That share is a ratio of packet facts, not a finding that outdoor recreation peaked. The implied mean near $681,655.40 fits many state and local project rows plus revisions. 1,412 is not 1,412 parks and not 1,412 builders. This packet does not name parks, states, or contractors. Acres acquired, trail miles, and visitor days are unpublished. This page does not convert $962,497,432.51 into recreation outcomes.
Cite CFDA 15.916 × FY2025, obligations not outlays. Land-acquisition vehicles can close later than the obligation year. Match rates are unpublished. CFDA 15.916, FY2025 federal spending, All programs, and All spending ties are the four hrefs. Do not add them into the year cell. Unique recipients stay unpublished. If the program hub later shows a different yearlyTrend row, rewrite the dollar sentence and leave the pair definition alone: Outdoor Recreation Acquisition, Development and Planning crossed with fiscal year 2025.
Park folklore does not add acreage. $962,497,432.51 on 1,412 records is CFDA 15.916 in FY2025. Trail miles, visitor days, and park names stay unpublished. CFDA 15.916, FY2025 federal spending, All programs, and All spending ties are hubs, not addends. Land deals can close after the obligation year. Do not invent contractor names.
