In the above-mentioned Letter, the reported H2O maser luminosity (LH2O) is incorrect. Together with R. S. Furuya et al. (ApJS, 144, 71 [2003]), we checked the calculations and found that all the LH2O must be multiplied by a factor of 1.0 × 103. This leads to the following corrections.
In the last two sentences of the fourth paragraph of § 4.4, LH2O<~10-9 Lsolar should have appeared as LH2O<~10-6 Lsolar.
Regardless of this correction, we believe that our H2O maser survey remains one of the most sensitive.
In Figures 1 and 2, the data points for the Class I source GSS 30 IRS 1 (Lbol=26 Lsolar, LH2O=6.6×10-9 Lsolar, 4πd2S6cm=1.8×105 mJy pc2; R. S. Furuya et al. 2003) were mistakenly shown by the filled circle instead of the open one. This does not affect Figure 3 as GSS 30 IRS 1 is not plotted in the figure. Below are the figures and captions as they should have appeared.
