🚨 Minor Incident $6.6M/yr
10.0% probability / year +$500K vs baseline
Localized containment incident or short-term surge (e.g., increased emergent rate for a short period, small breach, or contamination requiring extra disposal and overtime).

📋 Confidence Notes
Notes provide detailed ranges for almost every line item, but many estimates have wide regional and policy-dependent variance (land price, disposal policy, and possible contagious behavior). Uncertainty about whether Foundation processes most corpses and about worst-case remediation scenarios lowers confidence from high to medium.
