⚡ Cost Scenarios
📊 Baseline (baseline) $1.7M/yr
92.5% probability / year
Normal operational year with no containment incidents beyond routine maintenance and scheduled research.
routine_operations scheduled_research no_incidents
🚨 Minor Incident $1.8M/yr
5.0% probability / year +$75K vs baseline
Localized containment failure requiring short MTF/medical response, minor repairs, increased temporary monitoring and cover activity.
restraint_failure localized_containment_breach minor_medical_event
🚨 Major Breach $3.2M/yr
0.5% probability / year +$1.5M vs baseline
Significant containment breach or exposure requiring large-scale MTF deployment, facility repairs, extended medical treatment, and major cover-up/legal action.

🚨 Research Breakthrough Requiring Scale Up $2.0M/yr
2.0% probability / year +$250K vs baseline
Discovery of additional anomalous properties necessitates expanded research program, recurring contracted imaging, and additional staff/higher security tempo.

Role Count Notes
Security Officer / MTF Agent 6 Six full-time guards covering 3x8hr shifts for 24/7 posted security (matches recurring security wage estimate, #6).
Security Supervisor / Sergeant 1 One Level-3/Sergeant on-site or on-call for escalations and authorizations (#7).
Research Scientist / Handler 2 Two researchers/handlers for daily interaction, protocol testing and documentation (#8).
Medical Officer / Medic 1 Aggregated on-call physician/medic coverage budgeted as recurring medical support (#9).
📋 Confidence Notes
Analyst notes provide detailed line-item ranges and staffing assumptions but the object's anomalous properties are unspecified; contingency lines are large and could materially change estimates, so overall confidence is medium.
