SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: 

I. Abstract 

The Bureau of Economic Analysis 

(BEA) is responsible for the compilation 

of the U.S. international transactions 

accounts (ITAs), which it publishes 

quarterly in news releases, on its Web 

site, and in its monthly journal, the 

Survey of Current Business. These 

accounts provide a statistical summary 

of all U.S. international transactions 

and, as such, are one of the major 

statistical products of BEA. They are 

used extensively by both government 

and private organizations for national 

and international economic policy 

formulation and for analytical purposes. 

The information collected in this survey 

is used to develop the ‘‘transportation’’ 

portion of the ITAs. Potential 

respondents are U.S. agents of foreign 

ocean carriers operating in the United 

States. The information is collected on 

an annual basis from U.S. agents who 

handle 40 or more port calls by foreign 

ocean vessels and the covered expenses 

for all foreign ocean vessels handled by 

the U.S. agent were $250,000 or more. 

U.S. agents who handle fewer than 40 

port calls or where the total annual 

covered expenses for all foreign ocean 

vessels handled by the U.S. agent are 

below $250,000 are exempt from 

reporting. 

Without this information, an integral 

component of the ITAs would be 

omitted. No other government agency 

collects comprehensive annual data on 

foreign ocean carriers’ expenses in the 

United States. There are no changes 

proposed to the form or instructions. 

II. Method of Collection 

The survey forms will be sent to 

respondents each quarter via US mail; 

the surveys are also available from our 

Web site. Respondents return the 

surveys one of four ways: U.S. mail, 

electronically using BEA’s electronic 

collection system (eFile), fax or e-mail. 

Responses will be due within 50 days 

after the close of each calendar quarter. 

III. Data 

OMB Number: 0608–0012. 

Form Number: BE–29. 

Type of Review: Regular submission. 

Affected Public: Businesses or other 

for-profit organizations. 

Estimated Number of Respondents: 

149. 

Estimated Time per Response: 4 

hours. 

Estimated Total Annual Burden 

Hours: 596. 

Estimated Total Annual Cost to 

Public: $0. 

IV. Request for Comments 

Comments are invited on: (a) Whether 

the proposed collection of information 

is necessary for the proper performance 

of the functions of the Agency, 

including whether the information will 

have practical utility; (b) the accuracy of 

the Agency’s estimate of the burden 

(including hours and cost) of the 

proposed collection of information; (c) 

ways to enhance the quality, utility, and 

clarity of the information to be 

collected; and (d) ways to minimize the 

burden of the collection of information 

on respondents, including through the 

use of automated collection techniques 

or other forms of information 

technology. 

Comments submitted in response to 

this notice will be summarized and/or 

included in the request for OMB 

approval of this information collection; 

they also will become a matter of public 

record.
