   * Quantity is less than 500 short tons or percent is less than .05.
   Note: Total may not equal sum of components because of independent rounding. The category "Industrial Plants" includes coal distributed to synthetic fuel plants that transform coal into synthetic coal and then redistribute to a final end-use sector. The distribution of synthetic coal is not collected on the EIA-6A, "Coal Distribution Report," and not included in these tables.
