 * 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.

 (b) The 'Participation' column includes those units which reported any of the two listed energy sources used in submetering at anytime in 2014, plus those units where the energy sources used in submetering was 

not ascertained.
