$3.2M
Personnel
19
One-time capital of roughly $11.63M driven primarily by advanced R&D, lab build-out, drone systems and property acquisition; recurring annual costs about $3.18M driven mainly by staff wages, ongoing research/monitoring, and local residential maintenance/cover operations.
🏗️ One-Time Capital Costs Total: $11.6M
Initial Research And Lab Setup $5.3M
[#11, #13, #16] Research lab build-out and scientific instruments (sequencers, wet-lab infrastructure, cold storage), initial decontamination setup, and a multi-year capital program for prototype R&D into cross-dimensional transit.
Equipment $2.9M
[#4, #9, #10, #12, #17, #19, #20, #23] Initial procurement and hardening of surveillance/access-control systems, initial vehicle fleet purchase, drone procurement (R&D+procurement portion allocated here), specialized climbing/fieldcraft equipment, long-range imaging hardware, initial amnestic stock & training equipment, emergency response gear, and secure server hardware.
Facilities $2.0M
[#1, #3, #21] Land acquisition of surrounding residential lots and immediate containment parcel, plus satellite site build-out costs and a liquid contingency reserve held for rapid mobilization.
Resettlement Transitional Support $1.2M
[#15] One-time transitional housing/support costs in the event of approved resettlement of SCP-3082-1-ϴ residents (contingency).
Legal And Cover Setup $125K
[#18] Initial legal fees and formation/registration/cover-entity setup to hold properties and establish official cover relationships.
🔄 Annual Recurring Costs Total: $3.2M/yr
Staff Wages $1.9M/yr
[#5, #6, #7] Annual payroll for on-site security guards, research & containment specialists (including Level-4 supervisor and technical support), and clinical/child-welfare personnel.
Research And Monitoring $380K/yr
[#10, #17, #23] Ongoing drone program operations/replacement, long-range imaging/data processing costs, and secure data archival/storage service contracts.
Cover Story And Legal $230K/yr
[#18, #25] Ongoing legal/PR/liaison fees, small neighbor compensation/payouts/amnestic usage budgets, and community goodwill/public-facing cover expenditures.
Logistics And Transport $202K/yr
[#9, #8, #14] Vehicle operating costs (fuel/maintenance), short-term housing/rotation subsidies for staff living in the neighborhood, and provisioning/transfer logistics for approved in-pocket requests.
Supplies And Consumables $190K/yr
[#11, #12, #13, #19, #24] Lab consumables and service contracts, replacement parts for climbing/field gear, routine health screening/immunizations and biosecurity supplies, amnestic replenishment, and general field consumables (ropes, batteries, PPE, drone props).
Facilities Maintenance $132K/yr
[#2, #4] Ongoing residential/property utilities, repairs, lawn/HOA costs, municipal property taxes and annual maintenance of surveillance/access-control hardware.
Cultural Program $125K/yr
[#22] Sociological monitoring, diplomacy/conflict mitigation budgets, discreet in-pocket surveys, and specialist time to manage village politics and reduce escalation risk.
Emergency Drills $50K/yr
[#20] Annual hazmat/evacuation/drill training, rapid-response team readiness, and maintenance of emergency medical/evacuation equipment.
Resettlement Support $0/yr
[#15] Recurring costs for full resettlement & social reintegration are recorded as a contingency (not included in baseline recurring). If executed, this would be multi-million/year and is handled as a scenario.
Advanced Research Program $0/yr
[#16] Large-scale, sustained R&D into cross-dimensional transit is not included in baseline recurring; recurring program costs (≥$1M/yr) are modeled in adverse/active-research scenarios.
⚡ Cost Scenarios
📊 Baseline (baseline) $3.2M/yr

📋 Confidence Notes
Estimates are based on analyst-provided ranges and midpoints; many items (resettlement, advanced R&D) are highly conditional and scalable, producing uncertainty in long-term recurring and one-time capital needs.
