[3]Research log for this record: Bureau of Ships Ships' Data, Vol. II; NHHC Navy Department Library Pacific Fleet organization roster; NARA 1941-1959 Navy deck-log guidance; official-source and archival-source searches listed in search_ledger [other_primary]

- Scope and limits of searches recorded in search_ledger; NARA page explains the content and research use of 1941-1959 deck logs
- Finding type
- historical_record
- Finding
- No ship-specific asbestos survey, abatement record, hazardous-material disclosure, or other primary asbestos record for USS LSM-146 was located in the accessible official-source research completed for this record. This is a bounded search result, not proof that no such record exists.

- Study period
- Research conducted through 2026-10-06
- Limitations
- Search coverage was incomplete: Firecrawl free MCP quota was exhausted during follow-up source work, and the fourth authenticated CourtListener base query did not return a captured result after the fleet pacing wait. No inference is made that records do not exist. NARA's deck-log guidance is not itself a search of LSM-146 logs and does not establish asbestos status.

- historical_record
- Finding
- NARA describes the 1941-1959 Navy deck logs as containing daily remarks and operational information, including events, fuel received, and locations. LSM-146 deck logs were not retrieved or inspected in this research; the series is recorded as an archival lead only.

- Limitations
- This is series-level guidance only. No claim is made that LSM-146 logs survive, were digitized, or contain a repair or shipyard entry. Deck logs do not by themselves establish asbestos materials or exposure.
