Initial capital expenditure is roughly $4.76M for site acquisition, containment buildout, lab setup, robotics, and remote-enclosure setup; recurring operations are approximately $3.17M/year driven primarily by staff wages, in-house research and monitoring, security, and logistics for remote enclosures.

Cost Scenarios
📊
Baseline
(baseline)
$3.2M/yr
Normal year with no major incidents; ongoing operations, research, monitoring, and remote-enclosure upkeep only.
steady operations
routine monitoring
no accidental mass exposure
🚨
Minor Incident
$3.4M/yr
Localized accidental exposure or small containment incident requiring medical surge, emergency response, limited replenishment of emergency reserves and short research/time-limited remediation.
single accidental staff exposure
robot failure leading to temporary manual remediation
small local spike in SCP-2108-B instances
🚨
Major Breach
$5.7M/yr
Large-scale positive-feedback event where many SCP-2108-B instances are created requiring mass containment, remote facility scale-up, large-scale decontamination, emergency replacement of equipment and sustained legal/cover operations.
mass SCP-2108-B conversion
positive feedback-driven growth
correlated external event (solar/geomagnetic/Corvus aggregation)

Confidence Notes
Analyst notes provide detailed line items and ranges; however uncertainty remains in site acquisition cost, the number of remote enclosures required, the frequency/severity of nonlinear breach events and staffing scale, so figures are mid-range estimates.
