📋 Confidence Notes
Estimates are midrange selections from wide analyst ranges; several items (SRA costs, site repairs) have large inherent uncertainty and some overlap in analyst notes (e.g., SRA costs appear in both item 1 and 2). Scenario probabilities are judgment calls based on containment history and the object's trajectory.
