Abstract: Under the Internal Revenue Code (IRC) at 26 U.S.C. 5178(a), a distilled spirits plant (DSP) is a delineated place on which only certain authorized activities may be conducted. However, under section 5178(b), the Secretary of the Treasury (the Secretary) may authorize other businesses on a DSP’s premises upon application under certain circumstances. Also, under the IRC at 26 U.S.C. 5221, DSP proprietors are required give written notification, in the form and manner prescribed by regulation, when they begin, suspend, or resume production of spirits. In addition, the IRC at 26 U.S.C. 5555 requires those liable for any tax imposed by chapter 51 of the IRC to keep such records, submit such returns and statements, and comply with such rules and regulations as the Secretary may prescribe. Under these authorities, TTB has issued regulations in 27 CFR part 19 requiring DSP proprietors to provide written notification regarding alternations of DSPs between proprietors or for customs purposes, and regarding changes to the production status of spirits. TTB also has issued regulations requiring DSP proprietors to keep alternating premises records when alternating operations at DSPs, including with an adjacent bonded wine cellar, taxpaid wine bottling house or brewery, as a manufacturer of eligible flavors, or as general premises.
