👥 Personnel 85 total

Role	Count	Notes
Security Officer / MTF Agent	75	[#7] Armed/specialized guards, site security supervisors and sally-port operators across 3 shifts (estimate 60–90 guards; midpoint used).

📋 Confidence Notes

Estimates are based on analyst ranges and many uncertain/overlapping items (contingency reserves, overlapping inclusions between per-subject custody and staff costs, and choice between one-time purchases vs contracted services). The object's anomalous, poorly quantified behaviors increase uncertainty, so confidence is low.
