Initial capital costs are approximately $9.0M driven by hangar refurbishment, equipment (HVAC, monitoring, response systems) and relocation/contingency funds. Recurring annual costs are approximately $6.875M/yr driven primarily by staff wages, food provisioning, utilities and population-control operations.

Cost Scenarios
📊 Baseline (baseline) $6.9M/yr
86.0% probability / year
Normal operational year with no major incidents; regular feeding, maintenance, research and staff operations.
steady operations no breaches routine research
🚨 Minor Incident $7.4M/yr
12.0% probability / year +$500K vs baseline
Limited aggression or small containment incident requiring emergency response, medical treatment, limited equipment replacement and temporary research suspension.
localized aggression limited personnel casualties equipment contamination requiring replacement
🚨 Major Breach $11.4M/yr
2.0% probability / year +$4.5M vs baseline
Significant containment breach or protracted aggression leading to multiple KIA, major structural repairs or relocation planning, large PR/legal expenses and scaled population-control operations.
large-scale aggression loss of personnel need for relocation/expansion
👥 Personnel 38 total
Role Count Notes
Security Officer / MTF Agent 24 [#8] 24 on-site guards (multiple shifts) to provide 24/7 coverage; accounts for the majority of security wage line item.
Research Scientist 9 [#9] Senior researchers, xenobiologists, entomologists and linguists (6–12 estimated; midpoint used).
Medical Officer / Medic 5 [#10] On-site medical staff and emergency trauma responders to cover exotic-anomaly trauma and quarantine procedures.
📋 Confidence Notes
Line items are well-documented with ranges; midpoints were used. Uncertainty remains around energy consumption for HVAC, frequency/severity of breaches, and policy choices (active suppression vs. cooperative management), so overall confidence is medium.
