Its item 8 records that 'industrial hygiene practices were formulated for the fabrication of the lead shielding for the nuclear waste tanks aboard the USS FULTON (AS-11)' (ventilation, personal protective measures, housekeeping), with Philadelphia Naval Shipyard as the reporting activity - a Navy-generated, hull-named industrial-hygiene record.

- Finding
- Pezzo v. Air & Liquid Systems Corp., No. 20-cv-10433 (JPO) (S.D.N.Y.) - qualifying asbestos litigation in which USS Fulton appears only inside a citation: the court's remand opinion (doc 61, 2021-07-08) quotes Pantalone's holding that the Pantalone plaintiff had not identified defendant-specific products for his exposure 'aboard the USS Fulton and USS Dortch'. Pezzo's own exposure allegations concern USS Wasp (CVS-18) laundry equipment; the case is an asbestos action but contains no claim about this hull.

- The hull's presence is a citation echo, not a claim: Pezzo alleges Wasp-era exposure. Recorded to classify the index hit; it adds no Fulton exposure allegation beyond Pantalone itself.
