⚡ Cost Scenarios
📊 Baseline (baseline) $26.5M/yr
94.0% probability / year
Normal year with steady operations, no major incidents; recurring costs only.
no breaches no large relocations steady staffing and operations
🚨 Minor Incident $29.5M/yr
5.0% probability / year +$3.0M vs baseline
Small breach or local manifestation requiring limited relocations, emergency medical response, overtime and legal work.
localized manifestation relocation of ~10 relatives short-term surge in medical/legal/overtime costs
🚨 Major Breach $40.0M/yr
1.0% probability / year +$13.5M vs baseline
Significant containment breach or discovery forcing large-scale relocations, major legal exposure and replacement of capital systems.
widespread breach 50+ relatives require relocation major legal settlements and equipment replacement
👥 Personnel 156 total
Role Count Notes
Childcare Attendant / Pediatric Care Staff 54 [#2] Minimum 15 on-site continuously → ~54 FTEs to cover 3 shifts + relief/leave.
Medical Staff (Surgeons / Anesthesiologists / OR Nurses / Techs) 34 [#3] 6 surgeons + 4 anesthesiologists + 18 OR nurses + 6 techs = 34 clinical FTEs.
Security Officer / Tactical Team 60 [#4] 50 guards + 10 supervisors for continuous site security and response.
Janitorial / Bio-cleaning Staff 8 [#10] Specialized cleaning staff (6–8 FTEs assumed 8 for budgeting).
📋 Confidence Notes
Estimates are order-of-magnitude and hinge on highly variable factors (number of relatives within the exclusion zone, frequency/severity of manifestations, site-specific construction costs). SCP object class unknown and several line items are contingent, so uncertainty is high.
