⚡ Cost Scenarios
📊 Baseline (baseline) $967.8M/yr
95.0% probability / year
Normal year with ongoing operations, maintenance, and reserves but no major containment escalation or correction actions.
steady_operations no_major_breach no_anchor_correction
🚨 Anchor Spacing Correction Required $3.6B/yr
3.0% probability / year +$2.7B vs baseline
Audit determines perimeter spacing inconsistency and Foundation must procure and install additional anchors to correct spacing (correcting 460 anchors).

🚨 Major Breach $1.5B/yr
2.0% probability / year +$500.0M vs baseline
Significant containment power loss or SRA failure resulting in heavy equipment loss, personnel casualties, emergency response, and large replacement/payout expenses.

📋 Confidence Notes
Key drivers (SRA unit count, SRA power consumption, and expansion rate of SCP-3582) are highly uncertain and the containment brief contains internal inconsistencies; many large line items are conditional, producing a wide possible range.
