Initial, programmatic one-time costs are dominated by R&D for sealing technology, black-project reserves, and acquisition/retrofit of secure facilities; recurring annual costs are driven by specialized staff wages, legal/cover operations, and ongoing monitoring/response infrastructure.

⚡ Cost Scenarios
📊 Baseline (baseline) $9.9M/yr
79.0% probability / year
Normal year with steady monitoring, research, and occasional low-level incidents; no major outbreaks or large-scale mobilizations.
regular monitoring operations minor maintenance and routine incidents
🚨 Minor Incident $10.1M/yr
15.0% probability / year +$250K vs baseline
Localized containment incident requiring additional forensic response, limited buyouts, and short-term mobilization of teams.
single-site breach or high-profile victim targeted buyout/legal expense
🚨 Major Breach $14.9M/yr
5.0% probability / year +$5.0M vs baseline
Several concurrent protrusions or one in a high-traffic hub requiring mass evacuation, large-scale buyouts, reserve drawdown, and accelerated R&D.
multi-site spawn in transit hubs large public exposure requiring major cover operations
🚨 Catastrophic Spread $39.9M/yr
1.0% probability / year +$30.0M vs baseline
Widespread proliferation across multiple population centers requiring massive emergency funding, black-budget R&D activation, and exceptional one-time purchases.
rapid multi-city proliferation protrusions in multiple mass transit hubs

Role Count Notes
Security Officer / MTF Agent 20 [#3, #14] One 20-person rapid-response specialized team (salaries/equipment/hazard pay) accounted for in staff wages.
Research Scientist 6 [#11, #10] Specialized botanical/xenobiology/memetic research staff and lab operations included in research staffing costs.
Surveillance Operator / Analyst 3 [#1, #2, #16] Remote surveillance and data-analyst staffing for sensor network and per-protrusion monitoring.
📋 Confidence Notes
Estimates rely on wide ranges in analyst notes, uncertain incident rates, and large program-level unknowns (R&D and black-budget items), so precision is low.
