a These estimates include
Commodity Flow Survey (CFS) data plus data on sectors that are not included
in the CFS such as imports, logging, construction, retail, services,
publishing, municipal solid waste, and household and business moves. They
also include estimates of shipments for sectors that are covered in the CFS
but may have been underestimated due to a small sample size, such as exports,
intermodal, and petroleum products.
b "Truck" as a single mode
includes shipments that were made only by private truck, for-hire truck, or a
combination of private and for-hire truck.
c Estimates for pipeline
include shipments of crude petroleum.
d Other multiple modes
includes a combination of truck and water, rail and water, and other
combinations.
