Thousands of construction and design firm from all parts of the U.S. appear on lists of companies that have received federal Paycheck Protection Program forgivable loans, according to federal documents just made public.
The PPP lists, which the U.S. Treasury Dept. and U.S. Small Business Administration released on July 6, do not specify individual loan figures, but instead categorize recipients according to several broad ranges of loan amounts. ENR calculates, using applicants' self-reported NAICS codes, that more than 101,000 industry companies received a loan between April 3 and June 30 of $150,000 or greater.
