R&D except Biotech (NAICS 541712) in Maryland 1st District (MD-01)
USAspending.gov records $2,366,233,043.17 in Research And Development In The Physical, Engineering, And Life Sciences (Except Biotechnology) (NAICS 541712) obligations with place of performance in Maryland 1st District (MD-01), across 109 awards. One hundred nine 541712 awards equal about thirteen percent of Maryland 1st District's district obligation total — a moderate except-biotechnology R&D file. That pair is Research And Development In The Physical, Engineering, And Life Sciences (Except Biotechnology) and Maryland 1st District (MD-01) — not Maryland's entire federal inflow, not Research And Development In The Physical, Engineering, And Life Sciences (Except Biotechnology) nationwide, and not cash already paid. The cell is 12.6% of this district's published obligation total ($18,793,237,545.99). Implied average obligation is about $21,708,560.03 ($2,366,233,043.17 ÷ 109). Correlation is not causation.

What the R&D (exc. Biotech)–MD-01 join is
NAICS 541712 and congressional district MD-01 meet here. $2,366,233,043.17 is the USAspending.gov obligation sum on awards that carry both tags. It is not the nationwide Research And Development In The Physical, Engineering, And Life Sciences (Except Biotechnology) total, not every federal dollar coded to Maryland 1st District (MD-01), and not an outlay register. The packet does not split physical from engineering from life-science 541712 work, and it does not split contract versus assistance. 109 is an action count: modifications and repeat awards add rows. Unique recipients are unpublished. This cell is not a lab-bench census, a named-principal-investigator file, or a biotechnology (541711/541714) book.
Dividing $2,366,233,043.17 by 109 yields about $21,708,560.03 per award on average. That ratio is two packet facts. It is not a typical contract, grant, or benefit line. 109 awards is a moderate R&D file. That count is not a named-lab roster. Do not treat MD-01's 541712 cell as a synonym for every R&D (exc. Biotech) account nationwide. Open Maryland 1st District for the district table without this industry filter, NAICS 541712 for NAICS 541712 without a MD-01 filter, Maryland federal spending for every industry in the Maryland extract, and All spending ties for the rest of the join list. Quote those hubs as parents, not as addends to $2,366,233,043.17.
NAICS 541712 as the R&D (exc. Biotech) side
USAspending labels industry 541712 as Research And Development In The Physical, Engineering, And Life Sciences (Except Biotechnology). That code produced $2,366,233,043.17 when crossed with Maryland 1st District (MD-01) place of performance. The industry-wide 541712 hub does not require MD-01 geography. The district hub does not require R&D (exc. Biotech). Only this tie applies both filters, which is why it cites 109 awards. The packet does not split physical from engineering from life-science 541712 work, and it does not split contract versus assistance.
Correlation is not causation: Maryland 1st District (MD-01) did not cause $2,366,233,043.17 by existing as a large or small place. Population, outcome scores, and named facilities are not packet facts. The join is 541712 × MD-01 only. This cell is not a lab-bench census, a named-principal-investigator file, or a biotechnology (541711/541714) book. 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.
Maryland 1st District (MD-01) as place of performance
Maryland 1st District (MD-01) 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-01 while later work occurs elsewhere. Awards tagged to other Maryland districts belong on those ties even when the industry is also 541712. Maryland 1st District (MD-01) is a numbered congressional place-of-performance code inside Maryland. Other Maryland districts are separate joins even when they reuse NAICS 541712. Maryland 1st District (MD-01) is not Maryland 4th, which also hosts 541712 in this harvest, and not Maryland 3rd (541710) or Maryland 5th (541512).
Maryland federal spending shows how NAICS 541712 sits beside other industries in the same state extract. $2,366,233,043.17 is one district-industry column, not the state table. This packet does not split Maryland 1st District (MD-01) by county, city, or census tract. Awards that carry a different NAICS stay on those other ties even if the work sounds related to Research And Development In The Physical, Engineering, And Life Sciences (Except Biotechnology). The district-wide obligation total published here is $18,793,237,545.99; $2,366,233,043.17 is the R&D (exc. Biotech) slice of that denominator.
Obligations, not outlays
USAspending.gov records an obligation when the federal government commits funds on an award. $2,366,233,043.17 is that kind of sum for Research And Development In The Physical, Engineering, And Life Sciences (Except Biotechnology) inside MD-01 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 $2,366,233,043.17 as given.
How to cite R&D (exc. Biotech) in MD-01
Cite USAspending.gov: Research And Development In The Physical, Engineering, And Life Sciences (Except Biotechnology) (NAICS 541712) obligated $2,366,233,043.17 on 109 awards coded to Maryland 1st District (MD-01). Name Research And Development In The Physical, Engineering, And Life Sciences (Except Biotechnology) and Maryland 1st District (MD-01) together. Keep the obligation word. If Maryland 1st District or NAICS 541712 has refreshed, prefer the live hub over this snapshot for current rows. The pair is not a lab-bench census, a named-principal-investigator file, or a biotechnology (541711/541714) book. 12.6% of $18,793,237,545.99 is the district share on this packet, not a performance score.
Keep Research And Development In The Physical, Engineering, And Life Sciences (Except Biotechnology), Maryland 1st District (MD-01), $2,366,233,043.17, and 109 awards together. All spending ties indexes other pairs. NAICS 541712 is the 541712 parent without a MD-01 filter. Maryland federal spending is the Maryland parent. Do not add those parents to this cell. Sharing a district with R&D (exc. Biotech) does not mean campaign donations funded these awards, and it does not convert obligations into outlays. This page reports one USAspending join.
Reading a moderate R&D (exc. Biotech) file in MD-01
109 awards is a moderate R&D file. That count is not a named-lab roster. Same NAICS 541712 does not merge MD-01 and MD-04. California 32nd also uses 541712. Do not add those dollars here. Biotechnology R&D is excluded by title. 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 $21,708,560.03) and the district share (12.6% of $18,793,237,545.99) are ratios of packet facts. Prefer Maryland 1st District and NAICS 541712 if the live tables moved.
Questions
- How much R&D (exc. Biotech) spending is coded to Maryland 1st District (MD-01)?
- USAspending.gov lists $2,366,233,043.17 in Research And Development In The Physical, Engineering, And Life Sciences (Except Biotechnology) obligations across 109 awards with place of performance in Maryland 1st District (MD-01). NAICS 541712 × MD-01 is an obligation join, not an outlay and not Maryland's complete federal ledger. The cell is 12.6% of the district's published total ($18,793,237,545.99). Unique recipients are unpublished. Average obligation is about $21,708,560.03, a ratio of those two facts only.
- Does $2,366,233,043.17 include every R&D (exc. Biotech) product line in MD-01?
- The packet publishes one NAICS rollup. The packet does not split physical from engineering from life-science 541712 work, and it does not split contract versus assistance. $2,366,233,043.17 is the combined obligation sum for NAICS 541712 inside MD-01 coding. This page will not invent a product pie or name contractors. Open NAICS 541712 and Maryland 1st District to inspect parent tables. 109 remains an action count, not a product count.
- Is $2,366,233,043.17 cash already paid in Maryland 1st District (MD-01)?
- 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. Treating $2,366,233,043.17 as checks already cleared in Maryland 1st District (MD-01) confuses those terms. Later ingests can revise 109 awards. Prefer the live district and industry hubs if the tables moved.
- Where is the live R&D (exc. Biotech)–MD-01 table?
- Maryland 1st District is the district parent and NAICS 541712 is the industry parent. Maryland federal spending covers Maryland without the district×industry intersection as the headline. All spending ties lists other pairs. Those hubs are not addends. Keep both sides of the join when citing $2,366,233,043.17. Place of performance is MD-01. Obligations are not outlays.
USAspending.gov congressional district place-of-performance joined to NAICS industry. Obligations are not outlays.
