SUMMARY: By this Notice, the Bureau of Economic Analysis (BEA), 
Department of Commerce, is informing the public that it is conducting 
the mandatory survey titled Quarterly Survey of Ocean Freight Revenues 
and Foreign Expenses of U.S. Carriers (BE-30). This survey is

U.S. persons who meet the reporting requirements set forth in this 
Notice that they must respond to, and comply with, the BE-30. Reports 
are due 45 days after the end of each calendar quarter. This Notice is 
being issued in conformance with the rule BEA issued in 2012 (77 FR 
24373) establishing guidelines for collecting data on international 
trade in services and direct investment through notices, rather than 
through rulemaking. Additional information about BEA's collection of 
data on international trade in services and direct investment can be 
found in the 2012 rule, the International Investment and Trade in 
Services Survey Act (22 U.S.C. 3101 et seq.), and 15 CFR part 801. 
Survey data on international trade in services and direct investment 
that are not collected pursuant to the 2012 rule are described 
separately in 15 CFR part 801. The BE-30 survey form and instructions 
are available on the BEA Web site at www.bea.gov/ssb.
