Initial one-time capital and hardening works dominate costs (reinforced containment, heavy handling equipment, and an emergency contingency). Recurring costs are substantial and driven by 24/7 medical and security staffing, ongoing experimental budgets, and legal/cover operations.
🏗️ One-Time Capital Costs Total: $55.3M
Unbounded Enlargement Contingency $50.0M
[#27] Placeholder reserve for relocation/large-scale engineering/military support if unbounded enlargement requires remote facility; order-of-magnitude; treated as one-time extraordinary appropriation.
Facilities $1.9M
[#1, #7, #23] Reinforced subterranean containment vault (#1), structural/load-monitoring upgrades (#7), and reinforced archive/sample storage vault (#23).
Equipment $1.9M
[#2, #6, #8, #9, #10, #11, #21, #22, #26] ICU/life-support kit (#2), sensor suite initial install (#6), backup generator (#8), remote handling manipulators (#9), heavy-lift purchase option (#10), secure transport vehicle (#11), PPE initial stock (#21), hardened data systems (#22), initial implementation of controlled-tooling/approved tools (#26).
Emergency Contingency Fund $1.0M
[#16] Liquid rapid-deployment emergency fund reserve for breach/catastrophe response (one-time seed; replenishment handled via recurring budgets when used).
Initial Research And Lab Setup $375K
[#12] Research instrumentation and laboratory buildout (high-precision measurement systems, LIDAR, high-framerate cameras, mass/force sensors).
Containment Refit $48K
[#15] Replacing loose furniture/tools with welded/anchored fixtures and initial compliance refit.
🔄 Annual Recurring Costs Total: $4.0M/yr
Staff Wages $1.2M/yr
[#4, #5] 24/7 on-site medical staffing (nurses/physicians) and multi-shift armed security team.
Cover Story And Legal $800K/yr
[#17, #18] Insurance/legal retainer, settlements/reserves, and public-relations/information-suppression/cover operations.
Research And Monitoring $705K/yr
[#12, #13] Long-term experimental budget and recurring maintenance/consumables for research instrumentation.
Civilian Compensation Reserve $550K/yr
[#25] Annual reserve for transportation damage/compensation/covert repairs resulting from SCP-7102 incidents.
Logistics And Transport $155K/yr
[#11, #10] Operating costs for secure transport vehicle and alternative heavy-lift contract retainer (standing contract option rather than purchase).
Supplies And Consumables $115K/yr
[#3, #21] Continuous sedation/drug supplies and recurring PPE/resupply costs.
Misc Operating $105K/yr
[#28] Utilities, janitorial, administrative support, HVAC and communications for the specialized area.
Waste Disposal Regular $100K/yr
[#14] Routine waste management and hazardous disposal runs for altered SCP-7102-A materials.
Facilities Maintenance $58K/yr
[#7, #8, #15, #26] Structural/load-monitoring calibration and maintenance (#7), generator fuel & quarterly testing (#8), periodic containment audits (#15), enforcement/physical-protocol upkeep (#26).
Waste Disposal Event Reserve $50K/yr
[#14] Annualized reserve for occasional large disposal events (ablation/fragmentation/incineration of very large items).
Training And Drills $50K/yr
[#19] Regular staff training, breach drills, medical/security rehearsals, and protocol development.
Ethics And Oversight $40K/yr
[#24] Compliance, internal ethics panels, liaison and audit costs for containment research oversight.
Personnel Vetting $38K/yr
[#20] Background checks, psychological evaluation and continuous monitoring for sensitive staff.
Sensor Maintenance $20K/yr
[#6] Annual maintenance, calibration, and redundancy testing for the advanced surveillance and sensor suite.
Archive Storage $15K/yr
[#23] Ongoing storage costs for retained SCP-7102-A samples (shelving/inerting atmospheres/inventory controls).
Data Systems Maintenance $14K/yr
[#22] Maintenance and support for hardened, air-gapped forensic logging and tamper-detection systems.
⚡ Cost Scenarios
📊 Baseline (baseline) $4.0M/yr
87.5% probability / year
Normal operational year with no major incidents; routine research and containment operations only.
no breach routine experiments standard maintenance
🚨 Minor Incident $4.3M/yr
10.0% probability / year +$250K vs baseline
Localized enlargement event or small breach requiring targeted disposal, limited structural repair, extra legal/PR activity.
small enlargement causing civilian/property damage single large disposal event limited containment repair
🚨 Major Breach $9.0M/yr
2.0% probability / year +$5.0M vs baseline
Significant containment breach or production of very large masses requiring structural repair, extended emergency response, and substantial compensation/settlement costs.
major breach extensive property damage extended emergency contractor/military assistance
🚨 Unbounded Enlargement Authorization $54.0M/yr
0.5% probability / year +$50.0M vs baseline
Discovery that SCP-7102 can produce unbounded/enormous masses triggers relocation/large-scale engineering and military-scale containment (extraordinary appropriation).
evidence of unbounded scaling decision to relocate or up-scale containment national/military-level response required

Role Count Notes
Physician / Intensivist 2 [#4] Two rotating anesthesiologists/intensivists to cover on-call and periodic presence; salaries included in staff_wages.

📋 Confidence Notes
Line items are drawn directly from analyst estimates but many ranges are wide and SCP behavior (range/material limits) is uncertain; contingency (item #27) is highly uncertain and treated as a separate extreme-risk figure.
