         Note: All data throughout this report are as reported by 11/25/2002.
         (1) Rates are based on 200,000 work-hours.  Due to changes in recordkeeping requirements effective
             January, 2002, injury/illness data are not comparable with prior years.                                                               (2) Fatality rates are based on 100,000 worker-years.            
         (3) Effective 1/1/96 thresholds were increased for reporting property loss (from $1,000 to $5,000)
             and for vehicle loss (from $500 to $1,000).  While some sites are still reporting at the lower 
             threshold due to contractual agreement, this report excludes all values below the new thresholds. 
         (4) Vehicle loss (i.e., automobile, truck, bus) does not include aircraft, railroad, or marine craft.
