⚡ Cost Scenarios

📊 Baseline (baseline) $3.9M/yr

89.5% probability / year

Normal year with no major incidents; routine containment, research and maintenance.

routine operations no breaches scheduled training and maintenance

🚨 Minor Incident $4.1M/yr

8.0% probability / year +$150K vs baseline

Small emergence or single civilian breach requiring overtime, minor medical response and limited repairs.

single instance emergence civilian perimeter breach limited equipment repair

🚨 Major Breach $5.1M/yr

2.0% probability / year +$1.2M vs baseline

Multiple-instance outbreak or larger breach requiring significant incineration/disposal, legal/compensation actions and probe/vehicle replacements.

multiple SCP-3106-1 outbreaks civilian casualties loss of expensive equipment

🚨 Catastrophic Breach $6.9M/yr

0.5% probability / year +$3.0M vs baseline

Severe containment failure with widespread casualties, major legal settlements, large remediation and replacement of critical infrastructure.

widespread outbreak major public exposure large-scale remediation and settlements

📋 Confidence Notes

Estimates are a bottom-up consolidation of analyst ranges; many one-time items have wide ranges (lab upgrades, remote-probe costs, contingency/reserve sizing) and operational variables (incident frequency) are uncertain, yielding medium confidence.
