Initial one-time capital is approximately $150,950,000 driven primarily by construction of an engineered hazardous containment cell, land/site works, and heavy equipment; recurring annual operations are roughly $18,324,800/year driven by staff wages, heavy equipment maintenance, fuel/power, hazardous waste disposal, and security/MTF rotation.

⚡ Cost Scenarios
📊 Baseline (baseline) $18.3M/yr
79.0% probability / year
Normal uneventful operational year with continuous handling, monitoring and scheduled maintenance.
steady continuous output no major equipment failures no regulatory incidents
🚨 Minor Incident $18.8M/yr
15.0% probability / year +$500K vs baseline
Localized leak, small containment failure or short downtime requiring cleanup and repairs.
small leachate escape minor equipment failure localized contamination detection
🚨 Major Breach $23.3M/yr
2.0% probability / year +$5.0M vs baseline

containment cell failure major equipment cascade failure extended offsite contamination
🚨 Catastrophic Breach $43.3M/yr
0.5% probability / year +$25.0M vs baseline
Severe failure causing wide area contamination, large emergency response, long-term remediation and major Public/Regulatory fallout.
fire or mass release major radiological/toxic plume multi-jurisdictional emergency
🚨 Political Exposure $20.3M/yr
2.0% probability / year +$2.0M vs baseline
Public/political discovery requiring large-scale legal defense, intensified remediation and PR/cover operations.

📋 Confidence Notes
Estimates are based on analyst ranges in the notes and standard industrial cost heuristics; many line items (engineered cell design, disposal pathways, MTF rotation intensity, long-term stewardship) have wide ranges, so totals reflect mid-range choices and a contingency buffer.
