One-time setup
$138.3M
Annual recurring
$13.6M
Personnel

🚨 Minor Incident $15.1M/yr
15.0% probability / year +$1.5M vs baseline
Localized containment incident requiring targeted response, additional repairs, limited amnestic operations and short-term overtime.
feeding port mis-seal small containment breach localized memetic leakage
🚨 Major Breach $23.6M/yr
3.0% probability / year +$10.0M vs baseline
Significant breach requiring prolonged containment operations, large-scale repairs, major PR/legal work and substantial temporary surge staffing.

📋 Confidence Notes
Estimates are based on analyst ranges and high-uncertainty items (memetic/thaumaturgic labor, contingency/reserve sizing, and decommissioning costs). The anomalous nature of SCP-9584 and wide ranges in line items reduce confidence.
