[#17] One-time insurance / liability reserve fund to cover litigation, accidental leaks, and unforeseen expenditures (baseline reserve).

[#4] Construction of hardened containment/research sites (secure datacenters, Faraday cages, underground labs); includes physical security infrastructure, HVAC, redundant power and safe storage vaults.

[#15] Discrete transactions, diplomatic payments, or one-time legal/regulatory costs to secure cooperation or emergency powers.

[#28] Rapid response fund for immediate PR/legal payouts and emergency remediation in the event of accidental disclosure.

[#27] Costs to safe-dispose hardware, archive/destroy data, staff layoffs and transition in case Project Chelone is terminated.

[#3, #6, #9, #19] Project Chelone operational costs (satellite ops, telemetry, updates) and HPC electricity/cooling/maintenance; monitoring network operations and long-term monitoring activities (excluding salaries captured in staff_wages).

[#7, #12, #19, #13, #10] Fully burdened salaries for theoretical physics team, security personnel, long-term archivists/watch officers, emergency-response team salaries and translation/curation staff (salaries consolidated here).
