SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: On March 31, 2005, the Alcohol and Tobacco Tax and Trade Bureau (TTB) published a notice of proposed rulemaking in the Federal Register regarding the establishment of the Calistoga viticultural area (see Notice No. 36, 70 FR 16451). In light of comments regarding the potential adverse impact on established brand names that we E:\FR\FM\17DEP1.SGM 17DEP1 ebenthall on PROD1PC69 with PROPOSALS 71290 Federal Register / Vol. 72, No. 241 / Monday, December 17, 2007 / Proposed Rules received in response to that first notice, we published a second notice of proposed rulemaking on November 20, 2007, as Notice No. 77 (72 FR 65256) requesting comments on our proposal to provide ‘‘grandfather’’ protection for certain brand names used on existing certificates of label approval, provided those labels also carry information that would dispel an impression that the wine meets the requirements for using the viticultural area name. As originally published, comments on Notice No. 77 are due on or before December 20, 2007, 30 days after its publication. Also on November 20, 2007, TTB published Notice No. 78 (72 FR 65261), a notice of proposed rulemaking regarding our regulations on the establishment of American viticultural areas. The proposed amendments clarify rules for preparing, submitting, and processing viticultural area petitions. The proposals contained in Notice No. 78 also include an amendment to 27 CFR 4.39(i) that would establish a ‘‘grandfather’’ provision to protect wine labels using a viticultural area name, provided that the label in question was approved and in actual commercial use for a specified period of time preceding TTB’s receipt of a perfected petition for establishment of the viticultural area. As originally published, comments on Notice No. 78 are due on or before January 22, 2008, 60 days after its publication. After the publication of Notice No. 77, TTB received two requests from wine industry groups to extend that notice’s comment period. Both the Napa Valley Vintners, a trade group representing over 300 Napa Valley (California) vintners, and the Wine Institute, a trade representing 1,100 California wineries and wine-related businesses, requested that the comment period for Notice No. 77 be extended an additional 90 days. In support of its extension request, Napa Valley Vintners indicates that the proposed grandfather provision contained in Notice No. 77 ‘‘is of great concern to our association’’ and is ‘‘inextricably linked’’ to TTB’s more general grandfathering proposal contained in Notice No. 78. The association believes that its decisions regarding the two notices ‘‘should be made at the same time.’’ Its requested 90-day extension, the group states, will allow its Winegrower Appellation Committee to consider the grandfather provision and the specific questions posed by TTB in Notice No. 77. The Napa Valley Vintners’ request notes that its appellation committee’s recommendations must then be presented to the group’s board of VerDate Aug<31>2005 15:26 Dec 14, 2007 Jkt 214001 directors, which only meets once a month. The Wine Institute, in its comment period extension request, also noted that Notice Nos. 77 and 78 deal with similar issues ‘‘that call for consistent rather than staggered comment periods.’’ In addition, the Wine Institute stated that, with the holiday season, its membership ‘‘is engaged in one of its busiest months of the year.’’ In response to these requests, TTB extends the original 30-day comment period for Notice No. 77 for an additional 90 days, so that the comment period will equal 120 days. Therefore, comments on Notice No. 77 are now due on or before March 20, 2008. Drafting Information Michael Hoover of the Regulations and Rulings Division drafted this notice. John J.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: On November 20, 2007, the Alcohol and Tobacco Tax and Trade Bureau (TTB) published a notice of proposed rulemaking in the Federal Register as Notice No. 78 (72 FR 65261) requesting comments on proposed amendments to our regulations regarding the use of geographic brand names found in 27 CFR part 4 and the establishment of American viticultural areas (AVAs) contained in 27 CFR part 9. The proposed amendments address the effect that the approval of an AVA may have on established brand names and clarify the rules for preparing, submitting, and processing viticultural area petitions. TTB also proposes to add to the regulations statements regarding the viticultural significance of established viticultural area names, or key portions of those names, for wine labeling purposes. As originally published, comments on Notice No. 78 are due on or before January 22, 2008, 60 days after its publication. Also on November 20, 2007, TTB published Notice No. 77 in the Federal Register (72 FR 65256), a notice of proposed rulemaking regarding the establishment of the Calistoga viticultural area in Napa County, California.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: On March 31, 2005, the Alcohol and Tobacco 
Tax and Trade Bureau (TTB) published a notice of proposed rulemaking in 
the Federal Register regarding the establishment of the Calistoga 
viticultural area (see Notice No. 36, 70 FR 16451). In light of 
comments regarding the potential adverse impact on established brand 
names that we

[[Page 71290]]

received in response to that first notice, we published a second notice 
of proposed rulemaking on November 20, 2007, as Notice No. 77 (72 FR 
65256) requesting comments on our proposal to provide ``grandfather'' 
protection for certain brand names used on existing certificates of 
label approval, provided those labels also carry information that would 
dispel an impression that the wine meets the requirements for using the 
viticultural area name. As originally published, comments on Notice No. 
77 are due on or before December 20, 2007, 30 days after its 
publication.
    Also on November 20, 2007, TTB published Notice No. 78 (72 FR 
65261), a notice of proposed rulemaking regarding our regulations on 
the establishment of American viticultural areas. The proposed 
amendments clarify rules for preparing, submitting, and processing 
viticultural area petitions. The proposals contained in Notice No. 78 
also include an amendment to 27 CFR 4.39(i) that would establish a 
``grandfather'' provision to protect wine labels using a viticultural 
area name, provided that the label in question was approved and in 
actual commercial use for a specified period of time preceding TTB's 
receipt of a perfected petition for establishment of the viticultural 
area. As originally published, comments on Notice No. 78 are due on or 
before January 22, 2008, 60 days after its publication.
    After the publication of Notice No. 77, TTB received two requests 
from wine industry groups to extend that notice's comment period. Both 
the Napa Valley Vintners, a trade group representing over 300 Napa 
Valley (California) vintners, and the Wine Institute, a trade 
representing 1,100 California wineries and wine-related businesses, 
requested that the comment period for Notice No. 77 be extended an 
additional 90 days.
    In support of its extension request, Napa Valley Vintners indicates 
that the proposed grandfather provision contained in Notice No. 77 ``is 
of great concern to our association'' and is ``inextricably linked'' to 
TTB's more general grandfathering proposal contained in Notice No. 78. 
The association believes that its decisions regarding the two notices 
``should be made at the same time.'' Its requested 90-day extension, 
the group states, will allow its Winegrower Appellation Committee to 
consider the grandfather provision and the specific questions posed by 
TTB in Notice No. 77. The Napa Valley Vintners' request notes that its 
appellation committee's recommendations must then be presented to the 
group's board of directors, which only meets once a month.
    The Wine Institute, in its comment period extension request, also 
noted that Notice Nos. 77 and 78 deal with similar issues ``that call 
for consistent rather than staggered comment periods.'' In addition, 
the Wine Institute stated that, with the holiday season, its membership 
``is engaged in one of its busiest months of the year.''
    In response to these requests, TTB extends the original 30-day 
comment period for Notice No. 77 for an additional 90 days, so that the 
comment period will equal 120 days. Therefore, comments on Notice No. 
77 are now due on or before March 20, 2008.
