What the petroleum refineries–Washington join is
NAICS 324110 and place-of-performance state WA meet on this tie. $167,460,685 is the obligation sum on awards that carry both tags. It is not the nationwide total for petroleum refineries, not Washington’s entire federal inflow, and not cash already paid. 324110 is petroleum refineries, not Washington’s 237310 highway join and not Indiana’s or Alaska’s 324110 joins.
2,834 is an award-action count. Modifications, delivery orders, and repeat vehicles add rows. Unique vendors are not published in this packet. Dividing $167,460,685 by 2,834 yields about $59,090 per award on average. The join does not rank Washington against other states and does not assign a fiscal year; none is in the facts.

NAICS 324110 as the industry side
USAspending labels NAICS 324110 as Petroleum Refineries. Petroleum Refineries is the same manufacturing code used on the Alaska and Indiana pages, here with Washington geography. The extract still does not name facilities or products. Do not add WA, IN, and AK totals. The industry hub for NAICS 324110 does not require Washington geography; only this overlay applies both filters.
A second petroleum refineries join in another state uses the same NAICS and a different dollar total. Do not treat Washington’s 324110 figure as a synonym for every petroleum refineries award in the catalog. 324110 is petroleum refineries, not Washington’s 237310 highway join and not Indiana’s or Alaska’s 324110 joins. Award titles on the NAICS 324110 page are the place to see what a given line bought.
Place of performance in Washington
Washington on this join is a USAspending geography field, not a claim that every dollar was disbursed to Washington residents. Washington POP is statewide, not a Puget Sound-only overlay. Sharing a state with 237310 and 334517 does not merge refining with highways or irradiation apparatus. An award can list WA while later work occurs in Oregon; Oregon is not inside this total. Awards can list WA while later performance occurs elsewhere.
The state hub for Washington shows how NAICS 324110 sits beside other industries in the same geography. This packet does not split metros, counties, or congressional districts.

Award count, mean, and obligations
2,834 awards sits between Alaska’s 2,486-award 324110 file and Indiana’s 7,264-award file, but this page does not rank the three states. The mean is not a barrel price. Award count 2,834 is a record count, not a payment count and not a unique-contractor census. Readers who need transaction-level detail should use the Washington industries list and the NAICS 324110 hub.
An obligation is a legal commitment. $167,460,685 is that kind of sum. Outlays can lag. This packet has no outlay total and no fiscal-year split. Citing $167,460,685 as cash already spent in Washington over-reads the field.
What this pair does not prove
Three refinery-state joins can look similar in dollars and still describe different award mixes. This page cites only Washington × 324110. Obligations remain commitments, not payments. Keep $167,460,685 labeled as NAICS 324110 obligations with Washington place of performance. Campaign contributions and USAspending awards are different datasets; this page does not claim donations fund these obligations.
A later ingest can restate $167,460,685 without changing the join key of NAICS 324110 and WA. Rewrite only the sentence whose source moved.
