Wisconsin geography on the HAP tag
WI is the place-of-performance code. Awards billed to Milwaukee, Madison, Green Bay, or other in-state sites can share the tag. Awards coded to Minnesota, Illinois, Michigan, or Iowa stay outside $631,796,130 even when activity later crosses those lines. The code does not convert $631.80 million into a property map.
Wisconsin federal spending is the all-program parent. 14.195 is one row on Wisconsin programs. $631.80 million is not the state’s complete federal footprint.
