Description: Under the authority of the IRC at 26 U.S.C. 5412 and the Federal Alcohol Administration Act (FAA Act) at 27 U.S.C. 205(e), the TTB regulations require consumer containers of beer to be marked with the name and address of the brewer. In the case of brewers that operate multiple breweries, the TTB regulations in 27 CFR parts 7 and 25 allow brewers to label beer containers with their principal place of business, provided that the brewer also places a code on each beer container indicating its actual place of production. This option allows multi-plant brewers PO 00000 Frm 00097 Fmt 4703 Sfmt 4703 to use an identical, universal label at all of their breweries. The labeling of beer containers with the producer’s name and place of production is a usual and customary business practice undertaken by brewers to identify their products to consumers and facilitate recall of adulterated products. In addition, TTB uses the required information to verify tax refund claims for the loss or destruction of beer. Form: None. Affected Public: Business or other forprofit.

Type of Review: Extension without change of a currently approved collection. Description: The FAA Act at 27 U.S.C. 205(e) authorizes the Secretary to prescribe regulations for the labeling of wine, distilled spirits, and malt beverages. The FAA Act provides that these regulations should, among other things, prohibit consumer deception and the use of misleading statements on labels and ensure that labels provide the consumer with adequate information as to the identity and quality of the product. Under that authority, TTB regulates the use of appellations of origin on wine labels, including the use of American viticultural area (AVA) names. In response to petitions submitted by interested parties, TTB establishes new AVAs or modifies existing AVAs through the rulemaking process. The TTB regulations in 27 CFR part 9 specify the information to be included in such petitions. TTB uses the provided information to evaluate a petitioner’s proposal and draft rulemaking for public comment for creating a new AVA or amending the name, boundary, or other terms of an existing AVA. Form: None. Affected Public: Business or other forprofits. Estimated Number of Respondents: 15. E:\FR\FM\30JYN1.SGM 30JYN1
