1 Includes glass, steel, aluminum, other nonferous metals, plastic, rubber, other materials, and miscellaneuos inorganic wastes. 
2 Tires and other (nonspecified). 
3 The electric power sector comprises electricity-only and combined-heat-power (CHP) plants within North American Classification System (NAICS) 22 category whose primary business is to sell electricity, or electricity and heat, to the public. 
MSW = Municipal Solid Waste.
* = Less than 500 billion Btu.
Note: Details of EIA`s analysis that revised MSW consumption are found in the Energy Information Administration (EIA) report, Methodology for Allocating Municipal Solid Waste to Biogenic and Non-Biogenenic Energy (Washington, DC, May 2007). After 2003 small amounts of other non-renewable energy consumption in the industrial sector for certain plants, including those that capture energy from exothermic chemical and manufacturing processes, are no longer included due to a change in EIA survey reporting requirements.
