Cost Scenarios
📊 Baseline (baseline) $1.9M/yr
88.0% probability / year
Normal year with no major incidents: ongoing monitoring, security, research and cover maintenance.
no breaches or public exposure regular scheduled maintenance and research only
🚨 Minor Incident $2.2M/yr
10.0% probability / year +$300K vs baseline
Localized incident requiring emergency response, amnestic administration to multiple civilians, repairs and increased legal/PR activity.
civilian intrusion/detention requiring mass amnestics localized breach or damaged sensor/vehicle losses
🚨 Major Breach $4.4M/yr
2.0% probability / year +$2.5M vs baseline
Significant breach or public exposure requiring large-scale amnestic deployment, litigation/settlements, major replacement of equipment and emergency research/mitigation.
public leak or multi-site manifestation large-scale abduction or facility contamination
👥 Personnel 13 total
Role Count Notes
Security Officer / MTF Agent 6 [#1] On-site guards to maintain 24/7 patrol presence (6 guards to cover shifts).
Security Supervisor 1 [#1] Full-time supervisor/backfill for on-site security.
Rapid Response / MTF Agent (regional) 5 [#2] Regional on-call containment/Rapid Response team (estimated 4–6; averaged to 5).
Research Scientist / Site Supervisor 1 [#3] Dedicated site supervisor / scientific monitor liaison with Site-64.
📋 Confidence Notes
Budget estimates are based on detailed analyst line items but the object is anomalous with uncertain breach rates and exploration outcomes; many costs (contingency needs, incident frequencies) remain stochastic, so medium confidence is appropriate.
