    The official PDF URL returned HTTP 403 to direct retrieval on 2026-10-03; its indexed live-search extract was reviewed. The table does not define 'removal,' identify final disposition beyond 'UNK,' or establish construction details, asbestos presence, exposure, or legal eligibility.

    historical_record

    Limitations
    Absence of a located public record does not prove asbestos was absent from the vessel, does not establish present or historical material condition, and does not establish or defeat exposure, causation, or legal eligibility. CourtListener search completion is separately an access gap, not a no-result finding.
