Estimated one-time setup costs are roughly $19.46M (facility buildouts, remote blacksite, engineering/transport, and contingency reserves); steady-state annual operating costs are ~ $15.795M/yr driven primarily by highly paid containment staff, ongoing research/monitoring, and blacksite/maintenance ops.

⚡ Cost Scenarios
📊 Baseline (baseline) $15.8M/yr
87.5% probability / year
Normal year with regular rituals/containment activity and no major uncontrolled incidents.
routine Protocol Load-Barer activations scheduled research and maintenance
🚨 Minor Incident $16.3M/yr
10.0% probability / year +$500K vs baseline
A single-year minor escalation: ritual activation leads to small controlled arson, an evacuation day, additional amnestic usage, and minor property/repair costs.
single ritual with controlled arson extra evacuation and replacement/research costs
🚨 Major Property Damage $25.8M/yr
2.0% probability / year +$10.0M vs baseline
Uncontrolled fire or spread into lab wings causing multi-million property damage and major repair/cleanup operations.
arson spreads beyond sacrificial room large-scale structural damage and equipment loss
🚨 Second Phase Escalation $35.8M/yr
0.5% probability / year +$20.0M vs baseline
Protocols fail and second-phase measures are required (mass amnestic programs, creation/classification of new SCP, relocation or large-scale second-phase operations).
failure of daily rituals to control SCP-6131-1 decision to escalate to second-phase Protocol Load-Barer

📋 Confidence Notes
Analyst notes provide detailed line items and plausible ranges, but many estimates are wide (amnestics, blacksite scale, and catastrophic event costs). The anomalous, memetic nature of SCP-6131 and the range of episodic outcomes produce moderate uncertainty.
