========ABOUT THESE FILES========

This ZIP file was generated from a specific Assistance Award Summary Page on
USAspending.gov, located at https://www.usaspending.gov/award/137031670

Data Element Definitions: A searchable Data Dictionary that defines every data
element in the included files can be found here:
https://www.usaspending.gov/download_center/data_dictionary. We have also included
a copy in this download for convenience. Note that the dictionary is updated
periodically.

Empty Files: When no data is available for a given file, its contents will only
contain column headers (no records will be included).

Split Files: The # in all filenames defaults to 1; if the number of rows in a given
file is large enough to warrant breaking it into multiple files, then additional
files will be present and appended with 2, 3, etc. instead.

Award ID Characters: In edge cases where the Award ID (FAIN or URI) contain
characters that are file system unfriendly (e.g., '?' or '='), they are converted
to '_' characters for purposes of file names (no underlying data within the files
is altered).

File: Assistance_[Award ID]_FederalAccountFunding_#.csv

This file contains Account Breakdown By Award data, which is reported on a

quarterly basis from audited agency financial systems as required by the DATA Act
of 2014. It is a breakdown of funding for this award by Treasury Account, Budget
Function, Object Class, and sometimes Program Activity--effectively linking the
appropriation, budget, financial, and award spheres. Financial data is provided at
the TAS level for increased granularity, but may easily be rolled up by Federal
Account using the federal_account_symbol column. This data is also available from
the Custom Account Download section of the site.

Note that the DATA Act of 2014 went into effect FY17Q2; as such, Account Breakdown
by Award data is only available from January 2017 onward, and will not be present
for award transactions that occurred prior to that point. Note also that a subset
of agency-submitted Account Breakdown by Award data is not definitively linkable to
a single Federal Award; unlinked data is available via Custom Account Download
only.

File: Assistance_[Award ID]_Sub-Awards_#.csv

This file contains all Sub-Grant data associated with this prime award. Sub-Grant
data is also available from the Advanced Search or Custom Award Download sections
of the site.

File: Assistance_[Award ID]_TransactionHistory_#.csv

This file contains transaction-level data for all of the modifications made to this
assistance award, including the base award. This data is also available from the
Advanced Search, Award Data Archive, and Custom Award Download sections of the
site.
