(a) Negative numbers indicate the volume of injections in excess of
withdrawals. Positive numbers indicate the volume of withdrawals in
excess of injections.

-- Not Applicable.

Notes: Data through 2001 are final. All other data are preliminary
unless otherwise noted. See Explanatory Note 6 for discussion of
revision policy. Gas in storage at the end of a reporting period may not
equal the quantity derived by adding or subtracting net injections or
withdrawals during the period to the quantity of gas in storage at the
beginning of the period. This is due to changes in the quantities of
native gas included in base gas and/or losses in base gas due to
migration from storage reservoirs. Totals may not equal sum of
components because of independent rounding. Geographic coverage is the
50 States and the District of Columbia.
