 (a) The Bureau of the Census classifies establishments using the North American

Industry Classification System (NAICS). 

 (b) A 'Local Utility' is an entity that produces and/or delivers a particular energy source

(for example, electricity, natural gas, steam) and is legally obligated to provide service

to the general public within its franchise area.

 (c) 'Sources Other than Local Utility' include independent producers, brokers,

marketers, and marketing subsidiaries of utilities; for the case of electricity sources,

also include small power producers and cogenerators not located at the establishment site.

 NF=No applicable RSE row/column factor.

 * Estimate less than 0.5.

 W=Withheld to avoid disclosing data for individual establishments.

 Q=Withheld because Relative Standard Error is greater than 50 percent.

 S=Withheld because estimate did not meet publication standards.

 NA=Not available.

 -- Estimation is not applicable.

 Notes: Totals may not equal sum of components because of independent rounding. 

Zeroes do not mean that the energy source is free, rather that the energy source either 

did not show up in this sample or it was not purchased at all in the sample population.

Purchased energy sources exclude quantities delivered from any other establishment(s) in the

company, quantities transferred from other establishments of the company for which

payment was not made, quantities purchased centrally within the company but separate

from the reporting establishment, and quantities for which payment was made in-kind.
