Download as PDF Federal Register / Vol. 86, No. 113 / Tuesday, June 15, 2021 / Notices khammond on DSKJM1Z7X2PROD with NOTICES importers of such articles. The IRC, at 26 U.S.C. 6001, 6011, and 6302, also authorizes the issuance of regulations regarding IRC-based taxes, returns, and records, including the mode and time for collecting taxes due. Under those IRC authorities, the TTB regulations in 27 CFR part 53 require respondents who have firearms and/or ammunition excise tax liabilities to submit a quarterly tax return using form TTB F 5300.26. TTB uses the information collected on this return to identify the taxpayer, the amount and type of taxes due, and the amount of payments made, and, as necessary, to support any tax determination or related additional actions, such as tax assessment or refund. Current Actions: There are no program changes associated with this information collection, and TTB is submitting it for extension purposes only. As for adjustments, due to changes in agency estimates, TTB is increasing the number of annual respondents, responses, and burden hours associated with this collection. Type of Review: Extension of a currently approved collection. Affected Public: Businesses or other for-profits, and individuals. Estimated Annual Burden: • Number of Respondents: 715. • Average Responses per Respondent: 4. • Number of Responses: 2,860. • Average Per-Response Burden: 7 hours. • Total Burden: 20,020 hours. OMB Control No. 1513–0130 Title: Reports of Removal, Transfer, or Sale of Processed Tobacco. TTB Form Number: TTB F 5300.26. Abstract: The IRC at 26 U.S.C. 5722 requires importers and manufacturers of tobacco products, processed tobacco, or cigarette papers and tubes to make reports as required by regulation. While processed tobacco is not subject to excise tax under the IRC, it may be illegally diverted to taxable use or supplied to others who illegally produce tobacco products. To detect diversion of processed tobacco, TTB has issued regulations in 27 CFR parts 40 and 41 requiring persons holding certain TTBissued tobacco-related permits to report certain removals, transfers, or sales of processed tobacco. In general, respondents must report shipments for export or to domestic entities not holding such TTB-issued permits by the close of the next business day using form TTB F 5250.2. However, respondents may apply to TTB for approval to report removals made for export using a monthly summary report. VerDate Sep<11>2014 17:02 Jun 14, 2021 Jkt 253001 TTB F 5250.2 and the monthly summary report require information identifying the TTB permit holder making the processed tobacco shipment, the type and quantity of processed tobacco shipped, the person(s) purchasing (or receiving) and delivering the processed tobacco, and the destination address of the shipment. Current Actions: There are no program changes associated with this information collection, and TTB is submitting it for extension purposes only. As for adjustments, due to changes in agency estimates, TTB is increasing the number of annual responses and burden hours associated with this collection. There are no program changes or adjustments associated with this information collection, and TTB is submitting it for extension purposes only. Type of Review: Extension of a currently approved collection. Affected Public: Businesses or other for-profits. Estimated Annual Burden: • Number of Respondents: 20. • Average Responses per Respondent: 150. • Number of Responses: 3,000. • Average Per-Response Burden: 0.54 hours. • Total Burden: 1,620. OMB Control No. 1513–0132 Title: Generic Clearance for the Collection of Qualitative Feedback on Agency Service Delivery. Abstract: TTB uses the surveys, focus groups, usability tests, and other information collections approved under this generic clearance to gather timely feedback from its customers and stakeholders regarding its programs and services. TTB analyzes the collected information to help improve its programs and service delivery to ensure that regulated persons and others have effective, efficient, and satisfactory experiences when interacting with the agency. Current Actions: There are no program changes or adjustments associated with this information collection, and TTB is submitting it for extension purposes only. Type of Review: Revision of a currently approved collection. Affected Public: Businesses or other for-profits; Individuals.

TTB Form Numbers: TTB F 5100.25 and TTB F 5100.30. Abstract: The IRC at 26 U.S.C. 5175, 5214, and 5362 authorizes exporters (other than proprietors of distilled spirits plants or bonded wine premises) to withdraw distilled spirits and wine, without payment of tax, for export if the exporter provides a bond, as prescribed by regulation. To provide exporters with a degree of flexibility based on individual need, the TTB regulations in 27 CFR part 28 allow exporters to file either a specific bond using TTB F 5100.25 to cover a single shipment or a continuing bond using TTB F 5100.30 to cover export shipments made from time to time. Current Actions: There are no program changes or adjustments associated with this information collection, and TTB is submitting it for extension purposes only. Type of Review: Extension of a currently approved collection. Affected Public: Businesses or other for-profits. Estimated Annual Burden: • Number of Respondents: 20. • Average Responses per Respondent: 1 (one). • Number of Responses: 20. • Average Per-Response Burden: 1 hour. • Total Burden: 20 hours.
