Tribal Broadband Connectivity Program federal funding in Alaska

Tribal Broadband Connectivity Program (CFDA 11.029) shows $487,887,493.30 in USAspending.gov obligations with Alaska as place of performance. Forty-six awards sit behind that total. The join is an NTIA-related Commerce listing crossed with a state location field, not Alaska's entire telecommunications budget and not a count of households. The dollars are commitments, not Treasury outlays.

Key figures

  • CFDA 11.029 in Alaska shows $487,887,493.30 in USAspending obligations on 46 awards.
  • Tribal Broadband Connectivity is an NTIA listing, not Alaska's full telecommunications budget.
  • Forty-six awards are rows, not a tribe or household census.
  • The total is commitments, not fiber already lit or an unserved ranking.

Alaska x 11.029 is a tribal-broadband join, not a household census

This page pairs CFDA 11.029, TRIBAL BROADBAND CONNECTIVITY PROGRAM, with Alaska place of performance. The listing covers grants that support broadband deployment and adoption on tribal lands, not every Commerce broadband program and not FCC universal-service funds. SpendingVault sums tagged obligations: $487,887,493.30 on 46 awards. The extract does not list tribes, miles, or households. Treat the pair as a catalog intersection, not a ranking of which state is more unserved, and not a claim that 46 awards equal 46 tribes.

Other Commerce listings — other broadband or digital-equity codes — sit outside $487,887,493.30 unless they also carry 11.029. Mixing tribal broadband with those codes would invent a combined connectivity figure the packet never computed. Correlation between this obligation sum and unserved-household maps is not causation. Household maps are not in the packet. Place of performance as Alaska locates the tagged awards; it does not deposit $487,887,493.30 in tribal accounts.

46 awards behind $487.9 million

Award count is a row count of assistance awards, including possible modifications and multi-year vehicles. It is not a census of tribes, miles, or households. Mean obligation is about $10,606,250 if $487,887,493.30 were divided evenly across 46 lines — a mechanical ratio, not a typical grant size, and not a published cost per mile. The packet has no last-mile-versus-middle-mile split inside 11.029.

Forty-six lines are scannable on an overlay but still too many to narrate one by one. Sort the Alaska 11.029 overlay by amount to see concentration. This page will not invent recipient names. Open Tribal Broadband Connectivity Program in Alaska for the stored table. Do not convert 46 into a map of Alaska fiber routes. The $487,887,493.30 total remains an obligation rollup on tagged awards.

Broadband obligations are not fiber already lit

Infrastructure awards often obligate in large project rows and draw over construction schedules. The $487,887,493.30 headline is the obligation sum, not a punch-list of miles built and not a Treasury outlay total. No fiscal year is attached. An NTIA announcement dated to a particular year is not automatically this join unless it uses CFDA 11.029, Alaska geography, and the obligation metric.

The listing title is Tribal Broadband Connectivity Program. This extract does not split deployment from adoption, and it does not split last-mile from middle-mile. Those cuts would require award documentation beyond dollars, 46 awards, CFDA 11.029, and Alaska. This page will not invent a share.

What the Alaska 11.029 table omits

The extract has no mile total, no tribe list, and no household table. Facts remain $487,887,493.30, 46 awards, CFDA 11.029, and Alaska. This page will not invent a ranking against other states' 11.029 joins. Deployment and adoption can both sit in the file; the extract does not label them.

Alaska federal spending and Alaska programs place 11.029 among other listings. CFDA 11.029 is the national catalog line. All spending ties indexes other CFDA x state pairs. Mixing those shelves would invent a share of Commerce spending the packet never computed. The $487,887,493.30 figure is the tagged pair only.

Where the 11.029 x Alaska overlay lives

Start with Tribal Broadband Connectivity Program in Alaska for the 46-award table behind $487,887,493.30. CFDA 11.029 is the nationwide listing. Alaska federal spending and Alaska programs give state context. All spending ties is the shelf for other program-by-state joins on the same obligation metric. Forty-six awards are assistance rows, not a household census. Tribe names and mile counts are not in this packet.

Readers who need a different program or a different state should leave this URL rather than adding numbers by hand. The $487,887,493.30 figure is the tagged CFDA 11.029 × Alaska pair only. USAspending.gov remains the source; SpendingVault republishes the join. Place of performance is a geography tag on awards, not proof that every dollar stayed inside Alaska after obligation. If a later extract revises the rollup, this page's facts will be stale until the packet is rebuilt. Do not annualize $487,887,493.30 into a per-year run rate: no fiscal year is in the facts.

How to read the Alaska × CFDA 11.029 pair

A ties page exists because two tables meet. One table is the assistance listing (CFDA 11.029). The other is place of performance as Alaska. The headline $487,887,493.30 is the obligation sum on that intersection. It is not a forecast, not a budget request, and not an outlay. It is also not a claim that CFDA 11.029 caused Alaska's economy to grow, or that Alaska caused CFDA 11.029 awards to exist. Correlation between geography and a catalog code is the join — nothing more.

Use the internal links to step off this pair: the statewide spending shelf, the national program listing, the state's other programs, and the ties index. Each of those pages uses the same obligation metric unless a page says otherwise. If you need award-level names, open the overlay or the stored table rather than treating this narrative as a recipient directory. If you need a different metric — outlays, current-year only, or a different geography — that metric is not in this packet.

The sum is a commitment total on assistance awards, not outlays and not Alaska's full telecommunications budget. Other Commerce listings are outside this join unless they also carry 11.029.
Do 46 awards mean 46 Alaska tribes?
No. Award count is a row count of assistance awards and can include modifications. It is not a tribe, mile, or household census. The packet does not name recipients. See the Alaska 11.029 overlay for named lines as USAspending stored them.
Is this Alaska's entire federal broadband funding?
No. The join is CFDA 11.029, Tribal Broadband Connectivity Program, crossed with Alaska place of performance. Other Commerce broadband codes and FCC funds use different listings. Those dollars are not inside $487,887,493.30 unless the award also carries 11.029.
