⚡ Cost Scenarios
📊 Baseline (baseline) $2.1M/yr
88.0% probability / year
Normal, uneventful year with routine monitoring, maintenance, and scheduled operations.
no incidents regular maintenance scheduled research activity
🚨 Minor Incident $2.3M/yr
10.0% probability / year +$185K vs baseline
Localized containment event (e.g., unexpected manifestation causing a single response, evidence disposal and emergency repairs).
single exposed manifestation requiring response contractor disposal and overtime minor repairs and legal payouts
🚨 Major Breach $4.2M/yr
2.0% probability / year +$2.1M vs baseline
Significant escalation requiring emergency property acquisition, upgraded containment (possible BSL-3), large-scale decontamination and legal action.
significant containment breach biological hazard confirmed forced expansion or emergency relocation

📋 Confidence Notes
Analyst notes provide detailed line-item estimates, but uncertainty remains around property valuation variance, frequency/severity of anomalous incidents, and whether BSL-3 or expanded containment will be required; therefore confidence is medium.
