Cost Scenarios
📊 Baseline (baseline) $7.9M/yr
74.0% probability / year
Normal year with routine operations, no major incidents; recurring costs only.
Routine operations No major breaches Standard MTF activity
🚨 Minor Incident $8.5M/yr
20.0% probability / year +$550K vs baseline
Localized incident requiring additional MTF deployments, targeted record-erasure, and modest medical/amnestic usage.
Small-scale breach or sighting Targeted record reappearance Several amnestic administrations
🚨 Major Breach $10.9M/yr
5.0% probability / year +$3.0M vs baseline
Significant containment breach requiring multi-day MTF operations, expanded amnestic campaigns, larger record-erasure operations and accelerated research response.
Coordinated instance escape High-frequency public exposures Large MTF/amnestic mobilization
🚨 Catastrophic Breach $17.9M/yr
1.0% probability / year +$10.0M vs baseline
Severe uncontrolled event or reality alteration requiring emergency multi-site response, mass amnestics, major legal cover-up and large contingency fund draw.
Widespread anomalous reality alteration Mass public exposure Multi-site emergency remediation
👥 Personnel 30 total
Role Count Notes
Security Officer / MTF Agent 20 [#4] Patrol personnel (20), higher-than-normal hazard pay reflected in wage estimates.
Engineer / Maintenance 5 [#4] Maintenance and facilities staff (5) for site upkeep and equipment.
Research Scientist 5 [#4, #13] Dedicated research team (5) focused on memetics, reality-bending studies and experiments.
📋 Confidence Notes
Estimates follow analyst-provided ranges and SCP text; personnel and baseline recurring costs are well-specified, but memetic behavior, record-erasure scope, and contingency needs introduce material uncertainty.
