Missouri geography on the DIC tag

MO is the place-of-performance code. Awards billed to St. Louis, Kansas City, Springfield, or other in-state sites can share the tag.

The code does not convert $509.83 million into a regional-office map.

Missouri federal spending is the all-program parent. 64.110 is one row on Missouri programs. $509.83 million is not the state’s complete federal footprint.
