scheduled research activity
🚨
Minor Incident
$8.6M/yr
Localized containment incident or elevated field recovery tempo requiring MTF deployment, repairs and additional amnestic/witness response.
small containment breach
increased sightings requiring amnestics
short-term MTF deployments
🚨
Major Breach
$10.8M/yr
Significant breach or public exposure event requiring large-scale response, facility repairs, legal action and possible euthanasia/replacement.
facility breach affecting multiple instances
mass public sightings/exposure
prolonged multi-day MTF operations
🚨
Research Breakthrough Requiring Scale Up
$9.3M/yr
Decision to scale up active neurotelepathy research, increasing recurring research operations and associated specialist staffing.
approved large-scale neurotech program
procurement of specialized imaging/recording campaigns

| Role | Count | Notes |
|---|---|---|
| Primate Veterinarian | 3 | [#8] On-site primate veterinarians for surgery, anesthesia, and emergency care (2–3 vets per analyst notes; modeled as 3). |
| Veterinary Technician / Assistant | 4 | [#8] Vet techs and assistants for post-op care, sedation monitoring and daily medical tasks (modeled as 4). |
| Animal Caretaker / Primate Keeper | 8 | [#9] Dedicated keepers for feeding, cleaning, enrichment and daily husbandry for 68 instances (staffing level consistent with analyst salary estimate). |
| Research Scientist / Lab Technician | 6 | [#16, #32] Research staff funded under research budget for genetics/pathology/cognitive studies (modeled as 4 scientists + 2 techs to match recurring research budget). |
Confidence Notes
Analyst notes are detailed and map cleanly to observable containment items (facility, MTF, research, IDCR), enabling medium confidence. Wide per-line item ranges and optional high-end research create uncertainty in mid/long-term recurring estimates, preventing a high-confidence rating.
