    Limitations
    This is a bounded negative about the contents of one short administrative table entry, not evidence that no asbestos records exist or that the hull was asbestos-free. The underlying PDF could not be inspected directly; ship-specific asbestos status remains unknown.

    Limitations
    The Navy-hosted PDF URL resolves but direct retrieval returned HTTP 403; the table row is available in the search-index extract. It establishes Navy-recorded removal and final disposition, not the exact scrapping date, place, method, or asbestos status.
