This paper studies local repair of such placements after resource failures. For one failed resource, we prove that one replacement cannot cover the failed hexagon and two always suffice, giving $\rho_{\mathrm{EJ}}(t)=2$ for all $t\ge1$. Among minimum-size repairs, the sharp minimum-overlap formula $\Omega_{\mathrm{EJ}}(t)=t^2$ follows from the three-strip geometry of EJ balls. For two failed resources, independent repair gives a four-replacement upper bound, but unlike the Gaussian case EJ repair is not always additive: two infinite neighboring displacement families admit three-replacement repairs, proved optimal by a two-ball impossibility argument. Additive behavior is established algebraically via endpoint-rigidity and diagonal-corridor theorems. For $q$ failed resources, independent canonical repair gives a universal $2q$ upper bound, exact when failed cells are pairwise more than $4t$ apart. Dense cluster subadditivity is proved for infinite four-fault and six-fault families with exact repair numbers four and five, giving savings of four and seven over independent repair. An exact inclusion--exclusion identity governs repeated coverage for arbitrary multi-fault repairs. An audit over 19,400 instances confirms widespread subadditivity. EJ local repair is structurally distinct from the Gaussian case: the one-fault overlap is quadratic, two-fault repair can be non-additive, and clustered repairs reuse replacement balls across multiple failed cells.
