🚨 Minor Incident $3.9M/yr
10.0% probability / year +$250K vs baseline
Localized containment incident or equipment malfunction requiring emergency response, extra amnestics, and contractor cleanup.
small breach or abrasion equipment failure during non-invasive test single-site contamination event
🚨 Major Breach $5.2M/yr
1.0% probability / year +$1.5M vs baseline

📋 Confidence Notes
Analyst notes provide detailed line-item estimates and clear operational requirements (staffing levels, medical care, brass-lining specifics). Major uncertainties remain in elective capital choices (CT purchase vs outsource) and reserve sizing, but recurring staffing and medical costs are well-specified.
