(c)	Effective January 1, 2007, we adopted FASB Staff Position (FSP) No. AUG AIR-1,Accounting for Planned Major Maintenance Activities. As a result, we recognized as other income an $8 million reversal of an accrual for major maintenance on our Geismar ethane cracker. We did not apply the FSP retrospectively because the impact to our 2007 earnings, as well as the impact to prior periods, is not material. We have adopted the deferral method of accounting for these costs going forward.
(d)	Represents balances written off, reclassifications, and recoveries.
(e)	Included inrevenues.
