Estimated one-time capital and contingency costs are approximately $895.2M driven by hardened facility construction, contingency escrow, and large R&D/contingency seed funds; steady-state recurring operations are roughly $99.4M/year driven by staff wages, energy, R&D, contingency replenishment, and ongoing field/monitoring operations.

Cost Scenarios
📊 Baseline (baseline) $99.4M/yr
81.5% probability / year

🚨 Minor Incident $109.4M/yr
15.0% probability / year +$10.0M vs baseline
Localized breach or swarm surge requiring targeted field response and repairs but not full contingency activation.

🚨 Major Breach $299.4M/yr
3.0% probability / year +$200.0M vs baseline
Significant containment breach requiring large mobilization, heavy civil works, contingency fund draw and major public mitigation.

🚨 Catastrophic Breach $1.1B/yr
0.5% probability / year +$1.0B vs baseline
Systemic failure or exposure leading to national-level response, facility decommissioning/remediation and extensive legal/political costs.

Role Count Notes
Security Officer / MTF Agent 130 [#8] 24/7 security rotations, tactical response, EOD, perimeter controllers (estimate from analyst notes: 130personnel).
Research Scientist / Engineer / Technician 40 [#9] Multidisciplinary scientific and technical staff (xenobiology, neuroengineering, robotics, cybersecurity) reflected in research payroll.
Medical Officer 15 [#10] Specialized medical and psychiatric staff for human-subject care included in medical payroll estimate.
