⚡ Cost Scenarios
📊 Baseline (baseline) $1.7M/yr
85.0% probability / year
Normal operational year with no significant breaches or major legal exposures; routine monitoring, research and staffing continue.
no breaches routine operations scheduled training and maintenance
🚨 Minor Incident $1.7M/yr
10.0% probability / year +$30K vs baseline
Small containment breach or exposure requiring targeted repairs, forensics and limited medical care.
localized locker damage single-person exposure small forensic investigation
🚨 Major Breach $2.0M/yr
3.0% probability / year +$300K vs baseline
Significant containment failure requiring full locker replacement/major repairs, extended MTF deployments and large-scale recovery operations.
pressure-related container failure multiple exposures MTF ocean recovery operations
🚨 Legal Exposure $2.7M/yr
2.0% probability / year +$1.0M vs baseline
High-cost civilian exposure or drowning incidents leading to extensive legal action, settlements and intense cover-story operations.

📋 Confidence Notes
Analyst notes provide detailed line items and ranges allowing reasonable point estimates, but many items have wide ranges (insurance reserve, legal exposure, research scope) and uncertain incident frequencies, so confidence is medium.
