Physical, Engineering, And Life Sciences R&D (Except Nanotechnology And Biotechnology) in California 28th District (CA-28)

$15,941,042,571.03 in USAspending.gov obligations pairs NAICS 541715 (Research And Development In The Physical, Engineering, And Life Sciences (Except Nanotechnology And Biotechnology)) with California 28th District (CA-28) across 471 awards. The join is NAICS 541715 crossed with a CA-28 place-of-performance field, not California's entire R&D book and not a named-laboratory inventory. The dollars are commitments, not Treasury outlays. No fiscal year is published in this packet, so this page does not invent one.

Key figures

  • Research And Development In The Physical, Engineering, And Life Sciences (Except Nanotechnology And Biotechnology) (NAICS 541715) × CA-28: $15,941,042,571.03 across 471 awards.
  • About 53.7% of the CA-28 district parent $29,670,921,467.96 by arithmetic.
  • 471 awards are a row count, not a laboratory or PI census.
  • Obligations are not outlays; no fiscal year is in the packet.
  • FEC donations do not fund this USAspending cell; source is USAspending.gov.

NAICS 541715 × CA-28 is an except-nano-bio R&D join, not a PI roster

This page is a join: Research And Development In The Physical, Engineering, And Life Sciences (Except Nanotechnology And Biotechnology) (NAICS 541715) as the industry key, and California 28th District (CA-28) as congressional district place of performance. SpendingVault sums tagged obligations to $15,941,042,571.03 on 471 awards. The join is NAICS 541715 crossed with a CA-28 place-of-performance field, not California's entire R&D book and not a named-laboratory inventory. Treat the pair as a catalog intersection, not a ranking of which district received more, and not a claim that 471 awards equal 471 principal investigators or 471 unique laboratories.

The PA-12 541715 cell and older 541710 California joins sit outside this total unless they also carry NAICS 541715 and CA-28. Mixing those books into $15,941,042,571.03 would invent a combined figure the packet never computed. Correlation between this obligation sum and local scientific employment is not causation. PI names, lab names, and project titles are not in the packet. Place of performance as CA-28 locates the tagged awards; it does not deposit $15,941,042,571.03 in a district treasury. Pasadena-versus-Glendale folklore is not a geography split in this packet.

471 awards behind $15.94 billion

Mean obligation is about $33,845,101 if $15,941,042,571.03 were divided evenly across 471 lines. That ratio is not a published program cost and not a typical grant size. Award count is a row count, including possible continuations and modifications. It is not a count of laboratories, PIs, or unique vendors. Four hundred seventy-one awards against a fifteen-billion-dollar cell is a thicker except-nano-bio R&D file than PA-12's 141-award 541715 join.

Research task orders coded 541715 can multiply rows without multiplying unique vendors. This page will not invent contractor or recipient names. Open California 28th District for the stored district table. Do not convert 471 into a map of California 28th District laboratories. The $15,941,042,571.03 total remains an obligation rollup on tagged awards. Inspect named lines on the overlay rather than inferring a PI census.

California 28th District, not a Los Angeles science rollup

California 28th District (CA-28) is one geography tag on USAspending awards, not a commuting zone and not a metro list. Awards tagged to CA-27, CA-30, or another California district are out even if the laboratory work sounds related. Recipient address can differ from that district tag. The district parent in this extract is $29,670,921,467.96 across every industry; $15,941,042,571.03 is the Research And Development In The Physical, Engineering, And Life Sciences (Except Nanotechnology And Biotechnology) slice — about 53.7% of that parent by arithmetic. Subtracting is tempting; this page still does not publish the leftover NAICS list.

A statewide R&D figure on California federal spending is a different shelf. Do not rank CA-28 against neighboring districts as a winner or loser. Other California district cells are other joins. California federal spending is the statewide book without a district filter. Adding statewide Research And Development In The Physical, Engineering, And Life Sciences (Except Nanotechnology And Biotechnology) dollars to $15,941,042,571.03 would double count. Campaign-finance filings are a different public-record system; this join does not claim donations funded these obligations.

NAICS 541715 obligations are not tests already flown

Except-nanotechnology-and-biotechnology physical-sciences R&D awards often obligate as research and test vehicles. The $15,941,042,571.03 headline is the obligation sum, not a punch-list of tests already flown and not a Treasury outlay total. A aerospace or university R&D dashboard dated to a particular year is not automatically this join unless it uses NAICS 541715, CA-28 geography, and the obligation metric.

NAICS 541715 is the nationwide industry book without a CA-28 filter. This extract does not recode 541715 as 541710, and it does not merge PA-12's 541715 dollars into this cell. Those cuts would require award documentation beyond dollars, 471 awards, NAICS 541715, and California 28th District. This page will not invent a share. Unique recipients remain unpublished.

What the CA-28 541715 table omits

The extract has no laboratory names, PI names, or project titles. Facts remain $15,941,042,571.03, 471 awards, NAICS 541715, Research And Development In The Physical, Engineering, And Life Sciences (Except Nanotechnology And Biotechnology), California 28th District (CA-28), and district parent $29,670,921,467.96. San Gabriel Valley science folklore belongs on another extract if it appears at all. Keep the obligation label. Later ingests can revise both the dollars and the 471-award count; prefer the live table when the overlay and this snapshot diverge.

Where the 541715 × CA-28 pair lives

Start with California 28th District for the district rollup that contains this Research And Development In The Physical, Engineering, And Life Sciences (Except Nanotechnology And Biotechnology) cell. NAICS 541715 is the nationwide NAICS 541715 listing. California federal spending gives California context without a CA-28 filter. All spending ties indexes other two-key joins on the same obligation metric. Four hundred seventy-one awards totaling this cell remain an administrative file, not a laboratory roster. Keep both Research And Development In The Physical, Engineering, And Life Sciences (Except Nanotechnology And Biotechnology) and California 28th District (CA-28) in every citation sentence. Do not recast $15,941,042,571.03 as cash already paid or as California's entire research appropriation. USAspending.gov remains the source; SpendingVault republishes the join. FEC contribution tables do not fund this cell.

Questions

How much except-nanotechnology-and-biotechnology R&D spending is obligated in California 28th District?
USAspending.gov shows $15,941,042,571.03 in Research And Development In The Physical, Engineering, And Life Sciences (Except Nanotechnology And Biotechnology) (NAICS 541715) obligations with California 28th District (CA-28) as place of performance, across 471 awards. The sum is a commitment total, not outlays and not the district's full $29,670,921,467.96 parent. Other NAICS codes sit outside this join unless they also carry 541715.
Do 471 awards mean 471 laboratories in CA-28?
No. Award count is a row count of NAICS 541715 actions tagged to CA-28. It is not a lab or PI census. Unique recipients are unpublished. Mean obligation of about $33,845,101 is a quotient of $15,941,042,571.03 and 471.
Does this CA-28 541715 cell include Pennsylvania 12th District R&D?
No. PA-12 is a different place-of-performance join on the same NAICS. $15,941,042,571.03 is about 53.7% of the California 28th District parent $29,670,921,467.96 by arithmetic. Cite USAspending.gov as the source.
Is the CA-28 541715 total already paid as outlays?
Not on this metric. Obligations are recorded commitments on awards. Outlays are payments from the Treasury. The $15,941,042,571.03 headline is the obligation rollup in SpendingVault's extract. Drawdowns and remaining balances are not published here. Cite USAspending.gov as the source.
