Other Support Activities for Water Transportation

NAICS 488390 joined with fiscal year 2025

The relationship is mechanical: NAICS 488390 crossed with fiscal year 2025 yields one obligation sum. $214,449,907.31 is that sum for Other Support Activities For Water Transportation in 2025. USAspending.gov publishes the figure as a yearlyTrend obligation total. Obligations are commitments recorded on awards, not Treasury outlays. The industry-wide extract remains $785,545,752.62; the FY2025 hub remains a separate parent. This pair does not explain why agencies bought residual water-transportation support on awards, and it does not name contractors or award recipients.

Nothing in the facts supports reading $214,449,907.31 as a count of terminals, vessels, or named vendors. Port and harbor operations (NAICS 488310) is the operations code, not this residual support code. Correlation between this NAICS label and FY2025 spending is the join itself, not a causal story. Campaign-finance tables do not fund these USAspending obligations. Place-of-performance and awarding-agency splits are omitted from this packet.

Residual water-transportation support on awards is the NAICS description attached to the awards, not a proof of goods delivered. A later USAspending ingest can restate $214,449,907.31 or $785,545,752.62 without changing the join keys. Do not add the all-industries index into this cell.
