Cost Scenarios
📊
Baseline
(baseline)
$3.8M/yr
Normal operational year with no major incidents: routine staffing, monitoring, waste handling and modest R&D continue.
no containment breach
routine sampling and maintenance
no major public exposure
🚨
Minor Incident
$4.1M/yr
Localized containment event: small spill, limited exposure, short MTF deployment and localized medical response.
small spill or PPE failure
limited public exposure or one consumer incident
🚨
Major Breach
$6.8M/yr
Significant containment breach with multiple public exposures requiring multi-day MTF operations, large medical response, cleanup and legal remediation.
breach of containment cell
multiple consumer exposures
media/regulatory attention
🚨
Research Breakthrough Requiring Scale Up
$5.3M/yr
R&D program expands to full-scale development and clinical trials for detection/neutralization requiring extra staff, equipment and lab time.
successful detection R&D
need for expanded neutralization infrastructure
🚨
Catastrophic Breach
$18.8M/yr
Widespread public exposure, large-scale casualties, major litigation and environmental remediation.
major breach with mass public exposure
failure of neutralization and widespread contamination
Personnel
25 total
| Role | Count | Notes |
|---|---|---|
| Security Officer / Guard | 12 | [#13] Dedicated armed security detachment (8–12 per rotation) to provide 24/7 perimeter and in-room response; count reflects staffing on-site. |
| Nurse | 6 | [#6] Nursing staff for 24/7 catheter/IV care (2 nurses per shift across three shifts = 6 FTE). |
| Medical Officer | 1 | [#6] Physician oversight (0.5 FTE minimum; represented as one on-staff physician/medical officer). |
| Hazmat / Emergency Responder | 6 | [#12] On-site rapid-response hazmat team (4–6 personnel); staffing chosen at upper end for continuous readiness. |
Confidence Notes
Analyst notes provide detailed line-item ranges and operational prescriptions but many items (R&D outcomes, breach frequency, reserve sizing) remain uncertain; estimates use mid-to-conservative assumptions so confidence is medium.
