SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: 

I. Abstract 

The Annual Survey of Foreign Ocean 

Carriers’ Expenses in the United States 

(BE–29) is a survey that collects data 

from U.S. agents of foreign ocean 

carriers who handle 40 or more foreign 

ocean port calls in the reporting period, 

or report total covered expenses of 

$250,000 or more in the reporting 

period for all foreign ocean vessels 

handled by the U.S. agent. The covered 

expenses are: (1) Port call services such 

as pilotage, towing and tugboat services, 

harbor fees, and berth fees; (2) cargorelated services such as loading, 

unloading, and storing cargo at U.S. 

ports; (3) fuels and oils (bunkers) 

purchased in U.S. ports; (4) other vessel 

operating expenses such as stores and 

supplies, vessel repairs, and personnel 

expenses in the United States; and (5) 

other expenses such as U.S. agents’ and 

brokers’ fees and commissions and 

expenses related to maintaining U.S. 

offices, such as rent, advertising, and 

wages. 

The data collected on the survey are 

needed to monitor U.S. trade in 

transport services to analyze the impact 

of U.S. trade on the U.S. and foreign 

economies, to compile and improve the 

U.S. economic accounts, to support U.S. 

commercial policy on trade in transport 

services, to conduct trade promotion, 

and to improve the ability of U.S. 

businesses to identify and evaluate 

market opportunities. The data are used 

in estimating the transport component 

of the U.S. international transactions 

accounts (ITAs) and national income 

and product accounts (NIPAs). 

The Bureau of Economic Analysis 

(BEA) is proposing no additions or 

modifications to the current BE–29 

survey. The effort to keep current 

reporting requirements unchanged is 

intended to minimize respondent 

burden while considering the needs of 

data users. Existing language in the 

instructions and definitions will be 

reviewed and adjusted as necessary to 

clarify survey requirements. 

II. Method of Collection 

BEA contacts potential respondents 

by mail in January of each year. 

Respondents must file the completed 

BE–29 forms within 90 days after the
