Abstract The 1997 Commodity Flow Survey (CFS) is undertaken through a partnership between the Bureau of the Census, U.S. Department of Commerce, and the Bureau of Transportation Statistics, U.S. Department of Transportation. This survey produces data on the movement of goods in the United States. It provides information on commodities shipped, their value, weight, and mode of transportation, as well as the origin and destination of shipments of manufacturing, mining, wholesale, and selected retail establishments. The data from the CFS are used by public policy analysts and for transportation planning and decision-making to assess the demand for transportation facilities and services, energy use, and safety risk and environmental concerns. This report series presents data on Metropolitan Area (MA) and Remainder of State (ROS) shipment characteristics. An MSA consists of one or more counties that contain a city of 50,000 or more inhabitants, or contain a Census Bureau defined urbanized area (UA) and have a total population of at least 100,000 (75,000 in New England). Counties containing the principal concentration of population, the largest city, and surrounding densely settled area are components of the MSA. This report covers the Washington, DC-MD-VA-WV PMSA.
