    Finding
    GAO reported Navy-wide information on asbestos use in naval ships and the Navy's 1975 policy to remove asbestos insulation only when damaged or when removal was needed for repairs; in 1979 the policy expanded to selective replacement in high-maintenance areas. This report does not identify USS LSM-122 or an LSM class.

    Limitations
    The separate hull-number query and docket searches were not completed because the helper's fleet-wide pacing guard halted further requests. This negative finding is limited to the exact-name opinion query and does not establish absence of cases or exposure allegations.
