NOTICE
While compiling the March 2004 import statistics for energy-related petroleum products, found in exhibit 17 of this release, the U.S. Census Bureau identified a processing error that caused several commodities to be omitted from the energy-related petroleum products group. With this release, the energy-related petroleum products group has been revised to include the missing commodities and the statistics for January and February 2004 have been revised. If you have further questions contact the U.S. Census Bureau, Foreign Trade Division at: (301) 763-2311 or e-mail Nick Orsini at nick.orsini@census.gov.
