- Finding type
- asbestos_application
- Finding
- BuShips' 1945 table for the LST-1081-1152 group documents two GM 12-567A diesel engines and 1,700 shp. For LST-1022's diesel LST-542 design, asbestos-relevant applications are limited to era-standard diesel-exhaust lagging, machinery/accommodation insulation, gaskets, packing, deck coverings, and brake linings; boiler and steam-line lagging is not a pathway.

[4]Batch-6510 search ledger: NHHC/DANFS candidate URL; NARA Special List 44; NavSource vessel page; BuShips Ships' Data; authenticated CourtListener helper [other_primary]
- Locator
- search_ledger rows sl-uss-lst-1022-01 through -05
- Finding type
- historical_record
- Finding
- No qualifying ship-specific asbestos survey, abatement record, material schedule, hazmat disclosure, or litigation record was located in the completed public-source review. CourtListener is expressly excluded from that negative finding: the required authenticated helper was throttled by the fleet-wide pacing limiter before the exact-name and hull-number opinion/docket sweep could complete.

- Limitations
- Absence of a located public record does not prove absence of asbestos aboard. CourtListener remains an open gap, not a no-result; this row establishes neither exposure nor non-exposure and does not address legal eligibility.
