SCP-7113 Neutralized ~ medium confidence
SCP-7113
Expected annual
$133K
One-time setup
$756K
Annual recurring
$130K
One-time remediation and neutralization expenses are the dominant costs (~$756,405) driven by property acquisition/demolition, laboratory analysis, settlements/opportunity liabilities, and a contingency reserve; recurring costs are modest (~$130,250/year) driven by contracted security, legal/PR, and monitoring/archival activities.

Forensic Data Analysis $6K
[#5] Short-term secure storage, encrypted transfer, and forensic recovery/analysis of corrupted surveillance logs and footage.
Training And Protocol Updates $6K
[#19] One-time workshop and SOP updates based on incident lessons and immediate training for field teams.
Miscellaneous Logistics $4K
[#21] Travel, meals, vehicle rental, fuel, lodging, and other day-to-day incidentals for the deployment.
Evidence Transport $3K
[#16] Secure packaging and transportation of samples/evidence to Foundation labs with chain-of-custody and specialized containers.
🔄 Annual Recurring Costs Total: $130K/yr
Long Term Site Security $58K/yr
[#17] Contracted long-term guard/watch costs if demolition delayed or residual risk persists (2 full-time contracted guards equivalent).
Cover Story And Legal $42K/yr
[#13, #15] Ongoing FOIA/complaint handling, legal counsel for public records, and media monitoring/PR maintenance.
Research And Monitoring $30K/yr
[#12, #16, #18, #19] Annual medical monitoring/counseling follow-ups, archival storage fees, records maintenance/intelligence follow-up, and periodic training refreshes.
Staff Wages $0/yr
[] No dedicated Foundation salaried staff wages charged to this SCP's recurring budget (contractors used for security/consulting).
Facilities Maintenance $0/yr
[] No ongoing site maintenance assumed (property remediated/demolished or returned).
Supplies And Consumables $0/yr
[] Ongoing consumables accounted for in episodic costs; no standing recurring consumable budget assigned.
Logistics And Transport $0/yr

📋 Confidence Notes
Analyst notes provide detailed line-item ranges for the neutralization incident, permitting mid-point estimates; however wide ranges on settlements, contingent opportunity costs, and contingency sizing reduce precision.
