¹Data are rounded to no more than three significant digits; may not add to totals shown.
²Each salt type includes domestic and imported quantities.� Brine is excluded because brine is not shipped out of State.
³Less than � unit.
⁴Includes shipments to overseas areas administered by the United States, Puerto Rico, exports, and some shipments to unspecified destinations.��
⁵Because data include salt imported, purchased, and/or sold from inventory from regional distribution centers, data for evaporated and rock salt��
distributed by State may differ from totals shown in tables 1 and 3, which are derived from plant reports at salt production locations.� Data may
differ from totals shown in table 5 because of changes in inventory and/or incomplete data reporting.
