⚡ Cost Scenarios
📊 Baseline (baseline) $1.5M/yr
70.0% probability / year
Normal operating year with no major containment incidents; recurring costs only.
no major breach routine incidents handled under normal operations
🚨 Minor Incident $1.7M/yr
25.0% probability / year +$150K vs baseline
Localized breach or retrieval event requiring extra medical treatment, overtime, temporary repairs, and increased legal/amnestic expenses.
localized containment breach multiple victim treatments above baseline temporary equipment replacement/repair
🚨 Major Breach $2.5M/yr
5.0% probability / year +$1.0M vs baseline
Significant containment failure causing facility damage, broad exposure, legal exposure, and major rebuild/repair and replacement costs.
cell structural damage widespread civilian exposure or high-profile leak major equipment loss or vehicle loss

📋 Confidence Notes
Analyst notes provide detailed line items and ranges enabling a reasoned estimate, but many items have wide ranges (equipment counts, vehicle quantity, reserve sizing, and incident frequency), so uncertainty remains; medium confidence.
