 (a) The Bureau of the Census classifies establishments using the 2012 North American Industry Classification System (NAICS). 

 (b) Four components of 'Biomass' are collected: agricultural waste, wood harvested directly from trees, wood residues and byproducts from mill processing, and wood-related and paper-related refuse. The 'Biomass 

Total' does not include pulping liquor or black liquor.

 (c) 'Agricultural Waste' includes bagasse, rice hulls, nut shells, and orchard prunings.

 (d) 'Wood Harvested Directly from Trees' includes round wood, wood chips, and tree bark.

 (e) 'Wood Residues and Byproducts from Mill Processing' include sawdust, shavings, and slabs.

 NA=Not available.

 Notes: Totals may not equal sum of components because of independent rounding. The estimates presented in this table are for the total consumption of energy (formerly total inputs of energy) for the production of 

heat, power, and electricity generation regardless of where the energy was produced. Specifically, the estimates include the quantities of energy that were originally produced offsite and purchased by or transferred to 

the establishment, plus those that were produced onsite from other energy or input materials not classified as energy, or were extracted from captive (onsite) mines or wells. During manufacturing processes, it is 

possible that the thermal energy content of an energy input is not completely consumed for the production of heat, power, or electricity generation. Hence, residuals of that input may remain. Those residual leftovers 

may be subsequently consumed for fuel purposes, whether onsite or offsite at another manufacturing establishment (for example, blast furnace gas as a byproduct recovered from coke and other inputs that were not 

completely consumed). In such cases, double counting of inputs cannot be avoided, and the "Fuel Consumption" estimates will be inflated.
