Initial capital/setup is estimated at $7,987,000 driven primarily by containment construction, HVAC and structural work, specialized inert-gas systems and robotics, plus initial research and emergency inventory. Annual recurring costs are estimated at $5,105,000 driven by staffing, materials research, inert-gas refills and consumables, hazardous-waste management, MTF/standby contracts and contingency reserves.

Confidence Notes
Analyst notes provide detailed line items and ranges, enabling a reasoned estimate, but many costs (R&D outcomes, decommissioning extent, frequency of breaches) have wide ranges and high uncertainty, so confidence is medium.
