SCP-6207

Expected annual

$1.9M

One-time setup

$2.7M

Annual recurring

$1.9M

Personnel

One-time capital/setup costs are estimated at approximately $2,690,000 driven primarily by remote-manipulation systems, sensor/drone fleets, protective suit inventories and contingency/reserve funds. Recurring annual costs are approximately $1,860,000 driven mainly by staff wages, ongoing research/monitoring, maintenance, utilities and lease/easement payments.

⚡ Cost Scenarios

📊 Baseline (baseline) $1.9M/yr

87.5% probability / year

Normal year with no containment incidents; regular operations, staffing, maintenance and planned research only.

No breaches Routine research only

🚨 Minor Incident $2.0M/yr

10.0% probability / year +$110K vs baseline

Localized incident or small breach requiring overtime, cleanup, minor repairs and increased consumable usage.

Localized clothing loss Small manipulator damage or sensor replacement Increased emergency callouts

🚨 Major Incident $2.7M/yr

2.0% probability / year +$850K vs baseline

Significant containment breach or damaging testing incident requiring rebuilds, legal claims and substantial emergency mobilization.

Large-scale clothing grab across perimeter Damage to manipulators or chamber Civilian impacts requiring claims

🚨 Catastrophic Breach $5.4M/yr

0.5% probability / year +$3.5M vs baseline

Worst-case escalation requiring full containment redesign, major land acquisition/easements or large-scale neutralization/upgrades.

Anomalous reach increases Widespread civilian exposure or major property damage Requirement for large land purchases or full redesign

📋 Confidence Notes

Notes provide detailed ranges for most items but many line items have wide ranges (land/easement costs, contingency needs and manipulator counts/specs). Estimates use mid‑range selections and conservative reserves; uncertainty around land acquisition and anomaly behavior (reach changes) reduces confidence.
