⚡ Cost Scenarios
📊 Baseline (baseline) $2.1M/yr
75.0% probability / year
Normal uneventful year with routine monthly Procedure F-30 operations and no major containment breach.
scheduled monthly F-30 executions routine maintenance and research
🚨 Minor Incident $2.2M/yr
20.0% probability / year +$50K vs baseline
Small containment incident or unexpected local exposure requiring limited MTF activation and incremental legal/cover-up work.
single small breach or unauthorized access limited extra legal/amnestic deployment
🚨 Major Breach $3.6M/yr
5.0% probability / year +$1.5M vs baseline
Significant containment breach with public exposure risk requiring drawdown of reserves, large-scale amnestic/legal operations and replenishment of contingency funds.
large-scale breach public exposure requiring mass amnestic/legal response

Role Count Notes
Security Officer / MTF Agent 6 [#9] Six rotating guards to provide 24/7 coverage and respond to alarms.
Level-2 / Supervisory Staff 2 [#10] Level-2 key-holder and an on-call Level-3 supervisory portioned to this SCP.
📋 Confidence Notes
Line-item estimates are reasonably detailed and many recurring drivers are well-identified (security, D-class replacement, suppression), but several major cost drivers (cover-up/amnestic scale, jurisdictional variation, breach magnitude) are highly variable and the anomalous behavior introduces uncertainty.
