public and other Federal agencies to 

comment on proposed, and continuing 

information collections, which helps us 

assess the impact of our information 

collection requirements and minimize 

the public’s reporting burden. Public 

comments were previously requested 

via the Federal Register on November 8,

Agency: Bureau of Economic Analysis 

(BEA), Commerce. 

Title: Quarterly Survey of Foreign 

Direct Investment in the United States. 

OMB Control Number: 0608–0009. 

Form Number: BE–605. 

Type of Request: Regular submission, 

reinstatement without change. 

Number of Respondents: 6,500 per 

quarter, 26,000 annually. 

Average Hours per Response: 1 hour 

is the average but may vary considerably 

among respondents because of 

differences in company structure and 

complexity. 

Burden Hours: 26,000. 

Needs and Uses: The Quarterly 

Survey of Foreign Direct Investment in 

the United States (BE–605) obtains 

quarterly data on transactions and 

positions between foreign-owned U.S. 

business enterprises and their ‘‘affiliated 

foreign groups’’ (i.e., their foreign 

parents and foreign affiliates of their 

foreign parents). The survey is a sample 

survey that covers all U.S. affiliates, 

except for certain private funds, above 

a size-exemption level. The sample data 

are used to derive universe estimates of 

direct investment transactions, 

positions, and income in nonbenchmark years from similar data 

reported in the BE–12, Benchmark 

Survey of Foreign Direct Investment in 

the United States, which is conducted 

every five years. The data collected 

through the BE–605 survey are essential 

for the preparation of the U.S. 

international transactions accounts, the 

national income and product accounts, 

the input-output accounts, and the net 

international investment position of the 

United States. The data are needed to 

measure the size and economic 

significance of foreign direct investment 

in the United States, measure changes in 

such investment, and assess its impact 

on the U.S. economy. 

Affected Public: Businesses or other 

for-profit organizations. 

Frequency: Quarterly. 

Respondent’s Obligation: Mandatory. 

Legal Authority: International 

Investment and Trade in Services 

Survey Act (Pub. L. 94–472, 22 U.S.C.

Background 

On February 1, 2005, the Commerce 

published the order in the Federal 

Register.1 In the 2017–2018 

administrative review of the Order, 

Commerce determined that the Elque 

Group (i.e., Elque & Co., Calcutta 

Seafoods Pvt. Ltd. (Calcutta Seafoods), 

and Bay Seafood Pvt. Ltd. (Bay

entity for purposes of antidumping 

duties.2 In the 2021–2022 

administrative review, Commerce 

assigned the Elque Group a cash deposit 

rate of 3.88 percent.3 On July 21, 2023,

Commerce published a notice of 

initiation of changed circumstances 

review (CCR) to consider whether EVPL 

is the successor-in-interest to Elque & 

Co.5

supplemental questionnaire to EVPL, to 

which we received a response on
