Upfront one-time costs are dominated by structural remediation, hazardous-materials remediation, and contingency/destruction capability; recurring annual costs are driven primarily by on-site security staffing and site technical salaries, with monitoring, training and cover/liaison expenses as secondary drivers.

👥 Personnel 18 total
Role Count Notes
Security Officer / MTF Agent 12 [#3] On-site guards to provide 24/7 coverage with rotations (analyst notes estimate ~10–14 security staff required for 2–4 patrolling personnel at all times).
Site Director / Executive Staff 1 [#20] Senior site lead included in site technical salaries (part of the 4–8 specialized staff).
Containment Technician 2 [#20] Containment techs for inspections, handling protocols and routine monitoring (part of specialized staff).
Engineer / Maintenance 1 [#20, #6] Responsible for generator, vehicles and facility systems maintenance (part of specialized staff).
Armorer / Security Specialist 1 [#11, #9] Armorer to manage armory, secure transport kits and tooling; coordinates with remote handling specialists (part of specialized staff).
📋 Confidence Notes
Cost ranges in analyst notes are broad and many items (remediation complexity, clandestine transport needs, and structural damage) are highly uncertain; line-item midpoints were used to produce estimates. Operational staffing levels and local clandestine cost variation (Chile vs. US rates) introduce moderate uncertainty.
