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

Industry Classification System (NAICS). 

 (b) 'Any Energy Source' represents the non-duplicative total of establishments identified with

any of the listed energy sources. This count includes only those establishments that reported

this activity in 2010.

 (c) 'Electricity' consists of quantities of electricity that were purchased

or transferred in, and is equivalent to 'purchased electricity' as defined in

the 'Annual Survey of Manufactures.'

 (d) 'Distillate Fuel Oil' includes Nos. 1, 2, and 4 fuel oils and Nos. 1, 2, and 4

diesel fuels.

 (e) 'Natural Gas' includes natural gas obtained from utilities, local distribution companies,

and any other supplier(s), such as independent gas producers, gas brokers, marketers,

and any marketing subsidiaries of utilities.

 (f) Examples of Liquefied Petroleum Gases '(LPG)' are ethane, ethylene, propane, propylene,

normal butane, butylene, ethane-propane mixtures, propane-butane mixtures, and isobutane

produced at refineries or natural gas processing plants, including plants that fractionate raw

Natural Gas Liquids '(NGL).'

 (g) 'Other' includes all other energy that was purchased or transferred in

and not shown elsewhere.

 (h) The establishment counts from the current frame represent the best classifications

available according to current procedures. However, some errors in classification 

can produce results that are in obvious disagreement with other known sources. Such is the

case for Petroleum Refineries, NAICS 324110. Upon later examination, this industry includes 

establishments that should probably be classified in other industries within 324. Their 

influence on energy consumption quantities should be minimal due to the relatively much 

higher energy intensities of correctly classified petroleum refineries.

 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.

 NA=Not available.

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

rounding. The derived estimates presented in this table represent the consumption 

of energy originally produced offsite, acquired as a result of a purchase or transfer

and consumed onsite for the production of heat and power. This definition is consistent

 with the definition of 'purchased' fuels and electric energy used by the Bureau of the

Census in the preparation of 'Fuels and Electric Energy Consumed,' of the 'Annual

 Survey of Manufactures,' for 1974 through 1981.
