(1) These composite estimates include the Commodity Flow Survey and non-CFS
sectors such as imports, logging, construction, retail, services, publishing,
municipal solid waste, and household and business moves. They also include
estimates of in-scope shipments for sectors that are covered in CFS but may
have been underestimated due to small sample size, such as exports,
intermodal, and petroleum products.
(2) "Truck" as a single mode includes shipment that were made by
only private truck, only for-hire truck, or a combination of private and
for-hire truck.
(3) Estimates for pipeline include shipments of crude petroleum.
(4) Other multiple modes include combination of truck and water, rail and
water, and other combinations.
