The Recovery Accountability and Transparency Board Oct. 15 posted data on projects funded through direct contracts from federal agencies under the American Recovery and Reinvestment Act of 2009 (ARRA). Data for projects funded by grants, state-issued contractors, loans and other forms of assistance will be available on Oct. 30.
Provisions in ARRA require that recipients of funding report the amounts received and spent and give project status updates. In addition, ARRA requires that recipients report the number and type of jobs created or saved by the funding.
The posted information reflects data received from recipients of ARRA funding that were required to enter information about their projects on the federal stimulus tracking website by Oct. 10. The reporting period covered data gathered between the date when the funding was awarded and Sept. 30.
