Abstract: Under the Internal Revenue Code (IRC) at 26 U.S.C. 5001, distilled spirits produced or imported into the United States are subject to an excise tax of up to $13.50 per proof gallon. However, under 26 U.S.C. 5214(a)(12) distilled spirits used for fuel purposes may be withdrawn from a distilled spirits plant (DSP) free of tax. To protect the revenue and help prevent diversion of alcohol fuel to taxable beverage use, 26 U.S.C. 5181 and 5207 require a proprietor of a DSP established as an alcohol fuel plant (AFP) to make applications, maintain records, and render reports as the Secretary of the Treasury prescribes by regulation. Under those IRC authorities, TTB has issued regulations in 27 CFR, part 19, subpart X, which require AFP proprietors to keep certain records, provide certain notices, place certain content and warning marks on alcohol fuel containers, and make annual operations reports using form TTB F 5110.75. The information collected under these regulations is necessary to keep AFP permits current, evaluate requested variations from prescribed AFP procedures, provide public disclosure of alcohol fuel container contents and poisonous nature, and account for distilled spirits produced for fuel purposes and verify the spirits’ disposition.

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

Burden Reduction Due to:

Short Statement: There are no program changes associated with the two information collections included under this collection request, and TTB is submitting it for extension purposes only. As for adjustments, due to changes in agency estimates, TTB is decreasing this information collection request’s overall annual estimated burden, from 2,100 to 300 respondents, from 2,150 to 600 responses, and from 2,150 to 1,200 burden hours. Those decreases result from a decrease in the number of alcohol fuel plants and the resulting decrease in the number of annual respondents and responses to the Alcohol Fuel Plant Reports information collection included under this request. For the Miscellaneous Applications, Notices, Marks, & Records (TTB REC 5110/10) information collection included under this collection request, TTB is increasing its annual burden estimate, from 50 to 300 respondents, from 50 to 300 responses, and from 50 to 300 hours. Those increases result from changes in agency estimates as TTB now finds that the estimated 300 alcohol fuel plant proprietors will annually submit, on average, one miscellaneous letterhead application or notice to TTB at a burden of 1 hour per response. However, TTB notes the keeping of the inventory, production, removal, and other records and the placement of the required content and poison warning marks on alcohol fuel containers required under this information collection are usual and customary business practices undertaken by respondents regardless of any regulatory requirement to do so. As such, under the OMB regulations at 5 CFR 1320(b)(2), such usual and customary practices, do not impose any burden on respondents as defined by the Paperwork Reduction Act.
