Abstract: The Internal Revenue Code (IRC) at 26 U.S.C. 5178 and 5180 authorizes the Secretary of the Treasury to issue regulations regarding the location, construction, and arrangement of distilled spirits plants (DSPs), the identification of DSP structures, equipment, pipes, and tanks, and the posting of an exterior sign at their place of business. The IRC at 26 U.S.C. 5206 also requires DSP proprietors to mark containers of distilled spirits, subject to regulations prescribed by the Secretary. The Alcohol and Tobacco Tax and Trade Bureau (TTB) regulations concerning the identification of DSP plants, equipment, structures, and bulk containers are contained in 27 CFR part 19. Those regulations describe the exterior identification sign required at DSPs and the identification signs or marks on DSP structures, cookers, fermenters, stills, tanks, and other major equipment. The regulations also require tank cars and tank trucks used by DSPs as bulk conveyances for distilled spirits to be permanently and legibly marked with identifying information and capacity. The information set forth under this information collection is necessary to protect the revenue and facilitate inspections, as TTB uses the required signs and marks to identify the location, use, and capacity of a DSP’s structures, equipment, and conveyances.

Burden decreases because of Program Change due to Agency Discretion: No

Burden Reduction Due to:

Short Statement: There are no program changes associated with this collection. As for adjustments, due to a change in agency estimates, caused by continued growth in the number of DSPs regulated by TTB, the Bureau is increasing the estimated number of annual respondents and responses to this information collection, from 2,220 to 3,160. However, as a usual and customary information collection, there is no corresponding increase in its estimated total annual burden hours, which remain zero. (TTB is removing the 1 hour of annual burden previously reported as a place holder for this usual and customary record collection requirement.)
