In relation to the UTC time and the local time of the time zone, UTC time is the result of adding the Bias and DaylightBias to the local time. For example, in a state adopting daylight time in the Pacific time zone, the Bias is 480 minutes and DaylightBias is -60 minutes. To determine the time in UTC for June 11, 2 A.M. PST, add a Bias of (480/60) hours and a DaylightBias of -(60/60) hours to the local time June 11, 2 A.M. The time in UTC is June 11, 9 A.M.
