In 1995, the transportation equipment
industry is included in "other manufacturing" because of data quality constraints.
Detail of the expenditure breakdown by type
of environmental protection activity is only available for the listed industries.
Before 1997 the wood products industry
was included with "other manufacturing".
Before the 1998 reference year establishments
were selected based on the 1980 Standard Industrial Classification
System (SIC). However, beginning with reference year 1998, industry selection
was based on the North American Industry Classification System (NAICS). For
further information, see Statistics Canada, 2001, Environmental Protection
Expenditures in the Business Sector, catalogue no. 16F0006X.
Operating expenditures on wildlife and habitat
protection are included with operating expenditures on reclamation and decommissioning.
Before the 1998 reference year, pipeline
transportation was included with gas distribution systems.
As of reference year 1998, the Survey
of Environmental Protection Expenditures is conducted every two years.
Operating expenditures on wildlife and habitat
protection are included with operating expenditures on other.
Before 2000 the fabricated metal
products industry was included with "other manufacturing".
