Tribal Self-Governance federal obligations in Oklahoma
Tribal Self-Governance (CFDA 15.022) shows $1,545,279,360.37 in USAspending.gov obligations coded to Oklahoma across 136 awards. The pair is an Interior compact catalog line joined to place of performance, not a ranking of tribes and not a count of BIA programs compacted. Obligations are commitments, not compact drawdowns. The Oklahoma × 15.022 overlay holds the rows.
Key figures
- CFDA 15.022 shows $1,545,279,360.37 in USAspending obligations in Oklahoma.
- Award count is 136; implied mean about $11.4 million.
- The join is program × place of performance, not a tribe ranking.
- Figures are obligations, not outlays.
One hundred thirty-six compact records, one Interior cell
This tie keeps USAspending assistance where CFDA 15.022 meets Oklahoma place of performance. The dollar book is $1,545,279,360.37. The award count is 136. Interior Tribal Self-Governance funding typically posts as compact and funding-agreement actions to participating tribes. One hundred thirty-six records do not equal 136 tribes; annual funding agreements and modifications can share the tape.
The join does not prove that Oklahoma’s tribal land base, citizen counts, or a particular compact election caused $1,545,279,360.37. Those are other series. This packet does not split natural-resources programs from social-service programs inside the compact. Correlation is not causation.
A reader who treats the cell as Oklahoma’s full Interior obligation book has left the CFDA-by-state definition. Indian Housing Block Grants (CFDA 14.867) is a HUD cell on the same statewide stack, not this Interior line. The 136 figure is a record count, not a tribal-citizen headcount.
A compact tape, not a housing-unit tape
One hundred thirty-six awards under $1,545,279,360.37 imply a mean near $11,362,348 per award. Larger compact packages can sit well above that average; smaller amendments can sit below it. The packet has no median and no share on the largest ten awards.
Cite both columns without converting the mean into a typical tribal government budget. USAspending.gov is the source; SpendingVault does not recast $11,362,348 as a per-tribe operating cost.
Oklahoma’s 15.022 cell versus HUD 14.867
Oklahoma’s state hub stacks every CFDA with performance coded to the state. Tribal Self-Governance is an Interior line. Indian Housing Block Grants is HUD. $1,545,279,360.37 is not Oklahoma’s all-program total and is not the housing cell. The nationwide CFDA 15.022 page includes every state, so it is not this cell.
Place-of-performance for a compact can sit on Oklahoma even when a tribe’s service area crosses state lines. This packet does not reallocate compact dollars. Read the overlay as a coding view of 136 awards.
Obligations versus compact drawdowns
The $1,545,279,360.37 figure is an obligation sum. Compact drawdowns can trail the federal obligation. SpendingVault does not publish a 15.022-in-Oklahoma outlay total in this packet. Mixing enrollment or land-acreage statistics with this award file leaves the USAspending series.
Cite the join as CFDA 15.022 × Oklahoma, $1,545,279,360.37, 136 awards, obligations only.
Parent hubs
The Oklahoma × Tribal Self-Governance overlay is the table view. Recipient slices on that hub still sum toward $1,545,279,360.37 on 136 awards. The Oklahoma spending page and the CFDA 15.022 program page are the parents. The Oklahoma programs index and the ties index list other pairs.
None of those links convert the cell into a tribe count or into outlays this packet omits.
What Oklahoma Interior self-governance is not
Tribal Self-Governance in Oklahoma is not a ranking of tribes and not a count of BIA programs compacted. The $1,545,279,360.37 figure is the CFDA 15.022 × Oklahoma cell. One hundred thirty-six awards describe Interior compact filing, including annual funding agreements, not 136 tribes. Natural-resources and social-service programs inside the compact are not split here.
Indian Housing Block Grants (CFDA 14.867) is HUD, not Interior. Adding 15.022 and 14.867 from memory is a different query. Cite Tribal Self-Governance and Oklahoma together, keep the obligation label, and keep the 136-award count. Compact drawdowns can lag the federal obligation. Later bulk files can revise both dollars and the record count.
Oklahoma’s Interior self-governance cell also does not include compact inventories by program, tribal-citizen counts, or land-acreage tables. Those series live with Interior and the tribes. SpendingVault cites USAspending.gov obligations only: CFDA 15.022 × Oklahoma, $1,545,279,360.37, 136 awards. If a later extract revises the 136-row tape, the implied mean near $11,362,348 moves with it. Quote the packet facts and the overlay path rather than a tribe-ranking story.
Keep both sides of the join in any citation: Tribal Self-Governance and Oklahoma, obligations only, 136 awards on $1,545,279,360.37.
