Hi,

...

From Spaceflight Now: "SpaceX technicians stationed on a boat near

the drone ship planned to weld steel shoes over the rocket?s four carbon fiber and aluminum landing legs to keep the 156-foot-tall stage from tipping over. The recovery crew will safe the rocket, drain it of hazardous fluids and gases, and set course for Port Canaveral, the drone ship?s home base.

I'd like to think that the recovery crew will drain the fluids and gases, and inert the rocket's propellant tanks *before* the welders start on those shoes - I for one would not want to be welding anywhere near a not-quite-empty and not yet inerted booster.
