It's nice to get an update on fairing reuse, since they no longer regularly mention it during webcasts.
If memory serves its 3-5mil per half or pair.
If a fairing floats ashore am I safe breaking it down and selling it on the street?
No. It is part of the space treaty that most nations have signed up to, that any part of a space craft remains the property of whoever launched it, and clean-up of it is the responsibility of the country from which it is launched.
