UN3082 packed in LTD QTY is cooled by Dry Ice. Please advise whether the DGD shown below is properly made or not?

Dry ice is permitted to be used in a LTD QTY package as ?gall packed in one?h provided it is used as refrigerant for other dangerous goods per DGR 5.0.3.2 (c), therefore this DGD is made in accord with the regulations.

It is necessary to confirm that the gross weight of the package does not exceed 30 kgG by checking the House Manifest and the actual package. The indication of 18.0 kgG shown against UN3082 should contain the weight of dry ice (10 kg) but it requires to be addressed. Personally, I feel it would be advisable to show the Gross Weight once more immediately after the entry ?gAll packed in one fibreboard box?h for clarity.
