KEY: N = data do not exist; R = revised; U =
data are not available.
a Does not add due to omission
of line from source table for depreciation and other noncash expenses.
b Figures obtained by addition
/ subtraction and may not appear directly in data source.
c Industry total includes
integrated and combination company totals in addition to distribution and
transmission company totals.
d Number of employees in
investor-owned companies is the sum of employees in distribution,
transmission, integrated and combination companies.
e Beginning in 1991 the number
of interstate natural gas pipeline companies is calculated using the Federal
Energy Regulatory Commission's FASTR database, which contains a listing by
year of pipeline companies that are regulated and, therefore, required to pay
tariff duties to the federal government.
Data for the years prior to 1991 were collected from the Energy
Information Administration's discontinued publication Statistics of Interstate Natural Gas Pipeline Companies. Data from the two
sources may not be comparable.
NOTES
Numbers may not add to totals due to rounding.
Gas utility industry totals include employees of privately owned
companies.
