    NavSource is a volunteer secondary compilation citing the Turner Publishing LCI history - not a primary registry; milestone dates are corroborated by uboat.net, the Shipbuilding History production table, and the official HyperWar ship listing, but 'date unknown' decommissioning and striking fields remain open. Photo captions label the 19 February 1945 Iwo Jima mortar-firing images 'LCI(M)-630' while the page's own campaign table places Iwo service under the LCI(G) designation - resolved by Rielly (ev-06): the physical mortar conversion preceded the 30 April 1945 administrative reclassification.

Log-coverage dates corroborate but do not assert commissioning/decommissioning dates; no inventoried coverage exists after 30 June 1945 despite continued service through the occupation/China-service period (to June 1946) and transfer in February 1948 - the disposition-era logs are an open archival question. Logs are not located in digitized public sources; retrieval requires NARA RG 24 access.

    Finding
    Published secondary account, synthesized from NARA action reports, naming this hull at both landings. At Iwo Jima, D-Day 19 February 1945: the ship arrived with TU 52.6 Mortar Support Group (LCDR S. J. Kelley aboard LCI(FF)-679) as a unit of TU 52.6.1, Mortar Support Unit One, under Lieutenant Commander William T. Dom - 'LCI(M)s 630, 631(F), 632, 638, 756, and 1010' - and Rielly notes of these mortar gunboats: 'Many had been recently converted and still had their (G) designation. This was the case for many of the gunboats, as their physical changes were ahead of the administrative changes' - reconciling this hull's 'as USS LCI(G)-630' Iwo Jima campaign credit with photographs of her firing 4.2-inch mortars there on 19 February 1945. At Okinawa, 1 April 1945: 'Covering them [Orange Beaches One and Two, the Army landing sites] were the mortar gunboats of Mortar Division One (TU 52.23.1) under Lieutenant Commander W. T. Dom. They included LCI(M)s 630-632, 638, 756, and 1010. Thirty-five minutes before the assigned landing time, the mortar gunboats moved into position and headed for the beaches at five knots. At a distance of 3,200 yards from shore, they began firing their mortars and continued their fire as they moved toward shore, marching the mortar rounds inland from the beach.' Dom was this hull's group commander - NavSource lists her as LCI Group Sixty-One flagship under LCDR W. T. Dom - so she operated under her own group commander's direction in both engagements.

    The HAER report documents this hull's builder and its own production block: New Jersey Shipbuilding Corporation was incorporated in 1942 as a wholly owned subsidiary of the Barber Asphalt Corporation, which converted its idled Perth Amboy asphalt plant on the Arthur Kill into a dedicated LCI(L) assembly-line yard - prefabricating hull and deckhouse sections in a factory 14 miles away, moving them by rail to sequential assembly stations on the ways, and launching from a submersible floating platform. 'Eventually managed by Todd Shipyards Corporation, New Jersey Shipbuilding employed about 2,500 workers and produced 375 LCI(L)s during the war'; the report's footnote lists the yard's hull ranges as 'LCIs 239 to 318, 423 to 657, 782 to 821, and 866 to 884' - this hull (630) falls inside the 423-657 block.

    Finding
    A welded-steel amphibious landing craft built in 1944 at a wartime emergency yard sits inside the Navy's documented asbestos-use era. Era-standard applications aboard a vessel of this type were diesel-exhaust and hot-pipe lagging in the engine rooms, gaskets and packing in piping and machinery, electrical insulation, and insulation in accommodation and galley spaces. As an all-diesel craft she carried no boilers or steam propulsion - the heavy boiler/turbine lagging pathway of steam-driven combatants does not apply, and a 158-foot landing craft would have carried markedly less lagged surface than a steam vessel.

    Finding
    No qualifying ship-specific asbestos record located: no asbestos survey, abatement contract, hazmat disclosure, museum record, or verified litigation naming LCI(L)-630 / LCI(G)-630 / LCI(M)-630 was found in the public sources searched (see search_ledger). CourtListener (authenticated API v4, 2026-09-30) returned zero hits in the opinion index for 'LCI(L)-630', 'LCI-630', 'LCI(G)-630', 'LCI(M)-630', and 'LCIM-630', and zero hits in the RECAP docket index for 'LCI(L)-630', 'LCI-630', and 'LCI(G)-630 OR LCI(M)-630'. A live-web sweep surfaced no qualifying case and no ship-specific asbestos content naming this hull; the only 'asbestos aboard' material in the ecosystem for numbered landing craft is law-firm marketing listicles asserting asbestos without primary sourcing - excluded by source policy.

    Limitations
    Absence of a located public record does not prove absence of asbestos aboard - as a 1944 combat-built landing craft the hull sits inside the documented Navy asbestos era. Litigation coverage is 'no hits in tested spellings', not an exhaustive negative: generic 'LCI' queries are not separable from name collisions and were not attempted. NARA deck logs (RG 24 E118, coverage 15 Jun 1944-30 Jun 1945), the Bureau of Ships detail specifications for the hull-543+ contract block, and any transfer/disposal documentation are undigitized leads. Does not establish that asbestos is or is not present, and does not establish or defeat any claim of exposure or legal eligibility.
