WHILE ON THE PREMISES OF A WINE CELLAR
OR WINERY MOST FEDERAL EXCISE TAXES ON THE WINE HAVE NOT YET BEEN
PAID BUT THE WINERY IS LIABLE FOR THE TAXES. THE FILING OF SUCH A
BOND FORM BY THE WINERY PROTECTS THE FEDERAL GOVERNMENT AGAINST
LOSS OF TAXES ON THE EVENT OF DEFAULT BY THE WINERY. THESE BONDS
PROTECT MILLIONS OF DOLLARS IN FEDERAL TAXES.

covers:
(i) Why the information is being collected;
