KEY: - = Zero or Less than half the unit shown; thus, it has been rounded to zero.
1 Ton-miles estimates are based on
estimated distances traveled along a modeled transportation network.
2 Coefficient of Variation.
NOTES: Toxic by inhalation (TIH) gases and volatile liquids that are toxic when inhaled. Value-of-shipment estimates are reported in current prices. Estimated measures of sampling variability for each estimate known as coefficients of variation (CV) are also provided in these tables. More information on sampling error, confidentiality protection, nonsampling error, sample design, and definitions may be found at http://www.bts.gov/publications/commodity_flow_survey/.
