Abstract: The Internal Revenue Code (IRC) at 26 U.S.C. 5173 and 5181 requires distilled spirits plants (DSPs) and alcohol fuel plants (AFPs), respectively, to furnish a bond, unless exempted from doing so under the IRC at 26 U.S.C. 5551(d) or 5181(c)(3). Under those IRC authorities, the TTB regulations in 27 CFR part 19 require proprietors of such plants that are required to submit a bond to use TTB F 5110.56 to file with TTB either a surety bond or a collateral bond using cash or U.S. securities. Using that same form, proprietors also may withdraw coverage for one or more plants, and DSP proprietors may provide operations coverage for adjacent wine cellars. The collected information is necessary to protect the revenue as the required bonds ensure payment of any delinquent Federal alcohol excise tax liabilities.

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 information collection. As for adjustments, due to changes in agency estimates, TTB is decreasing the number of annual respondents, responses, and burden hours associated with this information collection. In 2017, TTB reported 357 respondents to this collection and that each respondent made 2 annual responses due to the requirement to submit 2 originals of the bond form, per the form’s instructions. As a result, at 1 hour per response, the annual estimated burden previously reported for this collection was 716 hours. However, TTB has determined that, while each response requires the submission of two original forms, this constitutes only a single response that requires 1 hour to complete. Therefore, given the now estimated 310 respondents to this collection, each making 1 annual response at 1 hour per response, TTB now estimates the total annual burden for this collection is 310 hours.
