These categories come from the source's own classification. A line-item cost table, where the programme publishes one, lives in the guidelines and is not parsed for this record.

What comparable notices state

91 recordsStated 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.
