- Limitations
- Official-primary-source status is not established for NavSource; it is used here as an archival lead and ship-specific compilation. The page states that decommissioning and striking dates are unknown. It does not identify asbestos-containing materials, an asbestos survey, an abatement event, individual exposure, or causation.

- USS LCS(L)(3)-113 / LSSL-113
- Limitations
- This is a bounded research result, not proof that asbestos was absent. Firecrawl search/scrape was unavailable because the service reported a multi-hour quota wait. Authenticated CourtListener docket searches for the exact name and hull number returned no results, while the exact-name opinion search was stopped by the fleet pacing limit. NARA archival holdings and incomplete opinion research remain gaps.
