The funding ratio for Target Evaluation and Placer projects remained at a 60/40 (YMEP/proponent) for up to $40 000 of funding for the 2021–22 season. The funding ratio for Focused Regional programs is 75/25 (YMEP/proponent) for up to $25 000 of funding, and 100% for Grassroots projects for up to $15 000 of funding. In 2021, 76 applications were submitted, seeking in excess of $2.4M of funding.
