What comparable notices state

91 records
Stated ceilings on open records in the same industry.

Among open records stored under Environment & Water, 91 of 212 state an award ceiling. Those that do run:

  • 25th percentile$256,000
  • Median$750,000
  • 75th percentile$3,000,000

A statistical estimate, not a prediction. It describes what a set of notices has published in this catalogue on the day you read it, and says nothing about what this programme will award. Records stating no ceiling are excluded rather than counted as zero, and the programme pool — what a funder has across every applicant — is a different column and is never mixed in.

Who has won this programme before?

262 awards
Awards under the same assistance listing, not under this notice.

262 federal awards on file under assistance listing 15.662, the programme this notice is published under. These are not awards made under this notice — a listing covers every year the programme runs, and awards under an open notice do not exist yet.
