It's tough to quantify how many were searching in an official capacity
versus doing it as mercenaries and how much time was actually spent by
both groups on the search. There was also the time spent by a few
involved individuals on the search before it became an "all hands on
deck" effort. The stinker was the records were needed for a litigation
deadline that was only days away. 

Taking into account all the records staff, the involved legal
professionals, and other employees hourly average rate of pay - That one
search probably cost $5,000-15,000 dollars. This is taking into account
some of the searchers were in high dollar professional positions. This
might have been an exceptional case because it is unknown what the legal
consequences may have been had the box not been found.

You told us of the actions of many people over a period of time in an

If one were to attempt to discover the cost of that search action, what
do
you suppose it would be?
