Role Count Notes
Perimeter Guard 72 [@#4] Continuous 24/7 manned checkpoints; matches perimeter guard staffing estimate (72 guards × ~$90k/yr).
Security Officer / MTF Agent 30 [@#5] Rapid-response containment/tactical teams (MTF-level); headcount corresponds to the personnel portion of the MTF recurring budget.
📋 Confidence Notes
Large ranges in analyst estimates (notably relocation, contingency and decommissioning), disruptive memetic/electronic effects, and uncertain operational choices (full buyout vs. limited vaulting) produce high uncertainty in both one-time and recurring estimates.
