One-time closure and remediation costs are estimated at roughly $1.85M driven primarily by an MTF deployment, archival/equipment setup, and contingency reserves; ongoing annual costs are modest (~$271k/yr) driven by staff wages, archival maintenance, readiness posture and cybersecurity.

⚡ Cost Scenarios
📊 Baseline (baseline) $271K/yr
92.5% probability / year
Neutralized state with only archival maintenance, limited analysis and readiness posture active; no new incidents.

🚨 Minor Incident $421K/yr
5.0% probability / year +$150K vs baseline
Limited discovery of residual risk requiring targeted site follow-up, limited decontamination and additional forensic analysis.

🚨 Major Research Escalation $871K/yr
2.0% probability / year +$600K vs baseline
Evidence of novel anomalous properties prompts a funded BSL upgrade and an extended research program.

🚨 Catastrophic Redeployment $1.8M/yr
0.5% probability / year +$1.5M vs baseline
Containment breach or public exposure forces full MTF redeployment, large-scale decontamination, repairs and emergency measures.

Role Count Notes
Research Scientist 1 Lead analyst/researcher with Level-4+ access; pro-rated annual cost included in staff wages.
Forensic Video Analyst 1 Specialist for footage enhancement and review; pro-rated contract/internal hours included in staff wages.
IT / Archivist 1 Manages air-gapped archival systems, backups and access logging; pro-rated annual cost included in staff wages.
📋 Confidence Notes
Analyst notes provide detailed line-item ranges for most costs and a clear neutralized status, but several large items (MTF operations, contingency, potential research escalation) remain uncertain and episodic, so estimates carry moderate uncertainty.
