and electricity imports.  Values are negative so the columns will sum to the "Total Energy" column.
4Natural gas, plus a small amount of supplemental gaseous fuels. 13Retail electricity expenditures by ultimate customers, reported by electric utilities and, beginning in

hydroelectric, geothermal, wind, or solar energy.  ·  Totals may not equal the sum of components due to
independent rounding.
8Asphalt and road oil, aviation gasoline, kerosene, lubricants, petrochemical feedstocks, petroleum
coke, special naphthas, waxes, and miscellaneous petroleum products.		 Web Page:  For related information, see http://www.eia.gov/state/seds/seds-data-complete.cfm.
