Physical, Engineering, And Life Sciences R&D in Colorado 4th District (CO-04)

NAICS 541710 × CO-04 is a Front Range R&D join, not a PI roster

This page is a join: Research And Development In The Physical, Engineering, And Life Sciences (NAICS 541710) as the industry key, and Colorado 4th District (CO-04) as congressional district place of performance. SpendingVault sums tagged obligations to $14,902,004,813.81 on 1 awards. The join is NAICS 541710 crossed with a CO-04 place-of-performance field, not Colorado'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 1 awards equal 1 principal investigator or 1 unique laboratory.

Other 541710 district joins in this slice sit outside this total unless they also carry NAICS 541710 and CO-04. Mixing those books into $14,902,004,813.81 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 CO-04 locates the tagged awards; it does not deposit $14,902,004,813.81 in a district treasury. Fort Collins-versus-Greeley folklore is not a geography split in this packet.

1 awards behind $14.90 billion

Mean obligation is about $14,902,004,813.81 if $14,902,004,813.81 were divided evenly across 1 lines. That ratio is not a published program cost — here the mean equals the single award. Award count is a row count, including possible continuations and modifications. It is not a count of laboratories, PIs, or unique vendors. One award against a fourteen-billion-dollar cell is a single-instrument R&D file, not a thick grant dump.

A large research vehicle can post as one enormous row. This page will not invent contractor or recipient names. Open Colorado 4th District for the stored district table. Do not convert 1 into a map of Colorado 4th District laboratories. The $14,902,004,813.81 total remains an obligation rollup on tagged awards. Inspect named lines on the overlay rather than inferring a PI census.

Colorado 4th District, not a statewide science rollup

Colorado 4th District (CO-04) is one geography tag on USAspending awards, not a commuting zone and not a metro list. Awards tagged to CO-02, CO-06, or another Colorado 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 $22,721,014,071.34 across every industry; $14,902,004,813.81 is the Research And Development In The Physical, Engineering, And Life Sciences slice — about 65.6% of that parent by arithmetic. Subtracting is tempting; this page still does not publish the leftover NAICS list.

A statewide R&D figure on Colorado federal spending is a different shelf. Do not rank CO-04 against neighboring districts as a winner or loser. Other Colorado district cells are other joins. Colorado federal spending is the statewide book without a district filter. Adding statewide Research And Development In The Physical, Engineering, And Life Sciences dollars to $14,902,004,813.81 would double count. Campaign-finance filings are a different public-record system; this join does not claim donations funded these obligations.

NAICS 541710 obligations are not papers already published

Physical-sciences R&D awards often obligate as large research vehicles. The $14,902,004,813.81 headline is the obligation sum, not a punch-list of experiments already completed and not a Treasury outlay total. A university or laboratory R&D dashboard dated to a particular year is not automatically this join unless it uses NAICS 541710, CO-04 geography, and the obligation metric.

NAICS 541710 is the nationwide industry book without a CO-04 filter. This extract does not split physics from engineering from life sciences, and it does not use later 541712 or 541715 codes. Those cuts would require award documentation beyond dollars, 1 awards, NAICS 541710, and Colorado 4th District. This page will not invent a share. Unique recipients remain unpublished.

What the CO-04 541710 table omits

The extract has no laboratory names, PI names, or project titles. Facts remain $14,902,004,813.81, 1 awards, NAICS 541710, Research And Development In The Physical, Engineering, And Life Sciences, Colorado 4th District (CO-04), and district parent $22,721,014,071.34. Northern Front Range science folklore belongs on another extract if it appears at all. Keep the obligation label. Later ingests can revise both the dollars and the 1-award count; prefer the live table when the overlay and this snapshot diverge.

Where the 541710 × CO-04 pair lives

Start with Colorado 4th District for the district rollup that contains this Research And Development In The Physical, Engineering, And Life Sciences cell. NAICS 541710 is the nationwide NAICS 541710 listing. Colorado federal spending gives Colorado context without a CO-04 filter. All spending ties indexes other two-key joins on the same obligation metric. One award totaling this cell remains an administrative file, not a laboratory roster. Keep both Research And Development In The Physical, Engineering, And Life Sciences and Colorado 4th District (CO-04) in every citation sentence. Do not recast $14,902,004,813.81 as cash already paid or as Colorado's entire research appropriation. USAspending.gov remains the source; SpendingVault republishes the join. FEC contribution tables do not fund this cell.

Questions

How much physical-sciences R&D spending is obligated in Colorado 4th District?

USAspending.gov shows $14,902,004,813.81 in Research And Development In The Physical, Engineering, And Life Sciences (NAICS 541710) obligations with Colorado 4th District (CO-04) as place of performance, across 1 awards. The sum is a commitment total, not outlays and not the district's full $22,721,014,071.34 parent. Other NAICS codes sit outside this join unless they also carry 541710.

Does 1 award mean 1 laboratory in CO-04?

No. Award count is a row count of NAICS 541710 actions tagged to CO-04. One row is not a lab census. Unique recipients are unpublished. Mean obligation of about $14,902,004,813.81 equals $14,902,004,813.81 divided by 1.

Does this CO-04 R&D cell include other states' 541710 joins?

No. Other 541710 district pages are different place-of-performance joins. $14,902,004,813.81 is about 65.6% of the Colorado 4th District parent $22,721,014,071.34 by arithmetic. Cite USAspending.gov as the source. Obligations remain commitments, not Treasury outlays.

Is the CO-04 541710 total already paid as outlays?

Not on this metric. Obligations are recorded commitments on awards. Outlays are payments from the Treasury. The $14,902,004,813.81 headline is the obligation rollup in SpendingVault's extract. Drawdowns and remaining balances are not published here. Cite USAspending.gov as the source.
