- Laden and Ballast fuel consumption values do not refer to gallons per hour or any other specific rate of fuel consumption. Rather, they are expressed in ratios that relate the rates of fuel consumption in the states to each other. These ratios are used by the IMOS - Bunker Interpolator to perform its interpolations.
- This table combines in-port and in-transit consumption information into a single table. This is possible because, in inland barging, speed is not a useful factor for predicting fuel consumption.
- This table is used for calculating boat fuel consumption; the fuel consumption table on the IMOS - Boat form is not.
