- Limitations
- NavSource is an archival compilation whose narrative credits a 1995 Turner Publishing LCI history. The page does not provide a decommissioning date and does not establish a present location, surviving fabric, asbestos content, or individual exposure. The listed campaign and disposition details are carried with that source limitation.

- LCI(L)/LCI(R) design group; this hull's designation row
- Limitations
- The table establishes designation continuity and design-group specifications; it does not prove that every listed specification or complement applied unchanged to this individual hull, and it contains no asbestos or exposure information. The PDF is a scan hosted outside a Navy domain.

- Publicly available records searched for this hull

- Finding
- The required authenticated CourtListener helper was invoked for exact-name and hull-number searches, but the requests did not return within the available network timeout. No qualifying hit, non-qualifying hit, name collision, or no-result classification can responsibly be asserted from those incomplete requests.
