🚨 Minor Incident $25.2M/yr

15.0% probability / year +$5.0M vs baseline

Localized Tartarean friction or funding shortfall requiring emergency appeasement and short-term increased ops/overtime.

short-term escalation with POI demands rapid retrieval mission spike in overtime/contractor usage

🚨 Major Breach $50.2M/yr

5.0% probability / year +$30.0M vs baseline

Severe Tartarean intrusion or prolonged site failure requiring major repairs, large payouts, site relocation and multi-team retrieval.

📋 Confidence Notes

Costs are based on analyst-provided ranges but require many assumptions (midpoint selections, assumed lease rates, staffing loadings). The SCP narrative gives clear drivers but wide ranges and anomalous payment dependencies reduce precision.
