REGISTRY DISCREPANCY
The registry files PER-05-ECHO as an unlicensed salvage operator. Sensors record the operator spending a month of settlement medicine on property that was not hers.
The registry files PER-05-CORVUS as a fabrication risk. Sensors record the risk conducting a damage inventory after sweep 05-812, converting losses into a repair sequence before the weather could compound them.
The registry files AST-05-0000 as unrecovered property. Sensors record the property operating anchor clamps rated for four workers, alone, to spare the settlement fuel.
Discrepancies of this class are normally resolved by revising the sensor record. These have been forwarded for classification review instead. The review queue does not disclose who forwarded them.
First-person records covering event 05-244 and sweep 05-812 are held outside this archive. Text and complete audio.
