One-time containment and research buildout estimated at $10,000,000, with an expected recurring annual budget of $4,500,000 driven mainly by staff wages, continuous information-control (legal/PR/monitoring) and memetics research/monitoring operations.
🏗️ One-Time Capital Costs Total: $10.0M
Initial Research And Lab Setup $3.2M
[#5, #9] Specialized memetics research & testing lab build-out (soundproofed suites, remote rigs, observation cells) plus initial amnestic production/setup and secure dispensing facilities.
Property Acquisition Fund $2.0M
[#28] Contingency reserve for covert acquisition or long-term lease of affected sites when control of naming/usage is required.
Equipment $1.2M
[#1, #16, #20] Hardware and installed systems: tamper-evident file system hardware and biometric controls, remote interaction robotic platforms and hardened camera rigs, and secure operations center equipment (servers, encrypted comms hardware).
Naming Rights Acquisitions $1.0M
[#12] Reserve for purchase/control of naming rights on physical structures and objects where required to remove a name from public usage.
Nlp Detection Development $650K
[#4] One-time development cost for natural-language monitoring and machine-detection (multilingual NLP models, crawling infrastructure, automated alerting).
Initial Scrub Campaign $500K
[#3] One-time aggressive initial information-scrub campaign to remove/reattribute high-risk references (legal takedowns, publisher contracts) to suppress SCP-3919-A identity.
Reattribution Campaign $500K
[#11] One-time major reattribution campaign budget for high-prestige works and archives (commissioning papers, paying journals, contracts with historians).
Facilities $405K
[#1, #2, #20] Vault/air-gap installation portion of the secure single-authorized-access archive, climate-controlled physical archive build-out, and facility portion of secure operations/command center (structural work, vaulting, climate/fire systems).
Archive Redaction Initial $300K
[#23] Initial archive redaction and physical replacement operations for known public records removed from circulation.
Non Linguistic Mitigation Development $175K
[#17] Development of signage protocols, semantic-shield templates and other non-linguistic mitigation materials and templates.
Exclusion Zone Setup $100K
[#27] One-time establishment costs for geo-specific exclusion zones and signage at confirmed SCP-3919-B sites.
🔄 Annual Recurring Costs Total: $4.5M/yr
Staff Wages $1.9M/yr
[#6, #7] Salaries/benefits for core memetics researchers, linguists, cultural historians, and field containment/rapid-response teams.
Research And Monitoring $1.4M/yr
[#5, #4, #22, #15, #10, #17, #18, #25, #30] Recurring memetics research operations, NLP moderation and compute, cultural-transmission monitoring (conferences/exhibits), surveillance of amnesticised cohorts, long-term care programs, mitigation dissemination, training exercises, contingency/CK-class planning, and ethical oversight.
Cover Story And Legal $500K/yr
[#3, #11, #12, #13, #19, #29, #21] Legal takedowns, PR/disinformation retainers, translation/database maintenance and communications suppression contracts, plus baseline insurance/legal contingency provisioning.
Logistics And Transport $400K/yr
[#7, #8, #14, #28] Vehicles, rapid-deployment logistics, field travel, local Czech operations travel/office costs, and baseline property upkeep/transport related to site control.
Facilities Maintenance $200K/yr
[#2, #1, #20, #27] Ongoing utilities, climate control, fire-suppression servicing for secure archive and command center, vault upkeep, and exclusion-zone maintenance.
Supplies And Consumables $100K/yr
[#9, #15] Consumables and supplies including amnestic dose materials (baseline stocking), medical supplies for follow-up, and low-level surveillance consumables.
Cost Scenarios
📊 Baseline (baseline) $4.5M/yr
75.0% probability / year
Normal year with ongoing containment, monitoring, legal actions, and routine research without major public activations or property purchases.
no major public activations steady monitoring and takedowns routine memetics research
🚨 Minor Incident $4.8M/yr
20.0% probability / year +$300K vs baseline
One or more localized public activations requiring rapid deployment, forensics, targeted amnestic treatments, and localized PR/legal work.
small public activation localized emergency deployment incident forensics and amnestic treatment
🚨 Major Breach $9.5M/yr
5.0% probability / year +$5.0M vs baseline
High-impact multi-site public activations or failure requiring property acquisitions, large-scale amnestic campaigns, settlements, and expanded legal/PR expenditures.
multiple high-profile activations widespread media exposure need for property acquisition/control

📋 Confidence Notes
Numerical ranges in analyst notes are reasonably specific, but memetic activation frequency, required scope of legal/PR suppression, and potential for large property purchases are uncertain; estimates are therefore medium confidence.
