That final rule, which also reorganized those regulations, published as T.D. TTB–176 in the Federal Register of February 9, 2022, at 87 FR 7526. The final rule contained several minor inadvertent, nonsubstantive errors in the preamble discussion of, and the regulatory text for, 27 CFR part 5, Labeling and Advertising of Distilled Spirits. First, in the final rule’s preamble, in the Derivation Table for part 5, subpart I, the entry for § 5.153 should read ‘‘[reserved]’’ instead of ‘‘New.’’ In the related notice of proposed rulemaking (see Notice No. 176, 83 FR 60562, November 26, 2018), TTB proposed a new section, which it decided not to finalize, as described in the final rule. Second, and related to that error, in the final rule’s regulatory amendments, the table of contents for part 5 lists the section heading for § 5.153 as originally proposed (‘‘Diluted spirits’’) instead of listing that section as ‘‘reserved’’ as finalized in T.D. TTB–176. (The final rule correctly shows § 5.153 as ‘‘[Reserved]’’ in the regulatory text of part 5) Third, in § 5.203, which lists the authorized standards of fill for distilled spirits, two paragraphs were designated as paragraph (a)(1)(v)—one setting out a standard of fill of 750 mL and the other a standard of fill of 720 mL. The described errors were inadvertent, and their correction does not alter the intended meaning of any regulatory section contained in the final rule.

AGENCY: The Alcohol and Tobacco Tax and Trade Bureau (TTB) is expanding the approximately 64,640-acre ‘‘Clarksburg’’ viticultural area by approximately 27,945 acres. The Clarksburg viticultural area is located in Sacramento, Solano, and Yolo Counties, in California, and the expansion area is located in Sacramento and Solano Counties. The established Clarksburg viticultural area and the expansion area are not located within any other established viticultural area. TTB designates viticultural areas to allow vintners to better describe the origin of their wines and to allow consumers to better identify wines they may purchase.

Thornton, Regulations and Rulings Division, Alcohol and Tobacco Tax and Trade Bureau, 1310 G Street NW, Box 12, Washington, DC 20005; phone 202–453–1039, ext. 175. SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: DATES: PO 00000 Frm 00041 Fmt 4700 Sfmt 4700 13157 Background on Viticultural Areas TTB Authority Section 105(e) of the Federal Alcohol Administration Act (FAA Act), 27 U.S.C. 205(e), authorizes the Secretary of the Treasury 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. The Alcohol and Tobacco Tax and Trade Bureau (TTB) administers the FAA Act pursuant to section 1111(d) of the Homeland Security Act of 2002, codified at 6 U.S.C. 531(d). The Secretary has delegated the functions and duties in the administration and enforcement of these provisions to the TTB Administrator through Treasury Order 120–01, dated December 10, 2013 (superseding Treasury Order 120–01, dated January 24, 2003). Part 4 of the TTB regulations (27 CFR part 4) authorizes TTB to establish definitive viticultural areas and regulate the use of their names as appellations of origin on wine labels and in wine advertisements. Part 9 of the TTB regulations (27 CFR part 9) sets forth standards for the preparation and submission to TTB of petitions for the establishment or modification of American viticultural areas (AVAs) and lists the approved AVAs. Definition Section 4.25(e)(1)(i) of the TTB regulations (27 CFR 4.25(e)(1)(i)) defines a viticultural area for American wine as a delimited grape-growing region having distinguishing features as described in part 9 of the regulations and, once approved, a name and a delineated boundary codified in part 9 of the regulations. These designations allow vintners and consumers to attribute a given quality, reputation, or other characteristic of a wine made from grapes grown in an area to the wine’s geographic origin. The establishment of AVAs allows vintners to describe more accurately the origin of their wines to consumers and helps consumers to identify wines they may purchase. Establishment of an AVA is neither an approval nor an endorsement by TTB of the wine produced in that area. Requirements Section 4.25(e)(2) of the TTB regulations (27 CFR 4.25(e)(2)) outlines the procedure for proposing an AVA and allows any interested party to E:\FR\FM\09MRR1.SGM 09MRR1

Modernization of the Labeling and Advertising Regulations for 
Distilled Spirits and Malt Beverages; Correction

AGENCY: Alcohol and Tobacco Tax and Trade Bureau, Treasury.

ACTION: Final rule; Treasury decision; correction.

-----------------------------------------------------------------------

SUMMARY: The Alcohol and Tobacco Tax and Trade Bureau (TTB) recently 
published a final rule amending certain of its regulations governing 
the labeling and advertising of distilled spirits and malt beverages. 
That final rule, which also reorganized the regulations, appeared in 
the Federal Register of February 9, 2022. This document corrects 
several minor, non-substantive errors in that final rule.

DATES: This final rule is effective March 11, 2022.

FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT: Christopher M. Thiemann, Regulations 
and Rulings Division, Alcohol and Tobacco Tax and Trade Bureau, 1310 G 
Street NW, Box 12, Washington, DC 20005; telephone 202-453-2265.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: The Alcohol and Tobacco Tax and Trade Bureau 
(TTB) recently published a final rule amending certain of its 
regulations governing the labeling and advertising

[[Page 13157]]

of distilled spirits and malt beverages. That final rule, which also 
reorganized those regulations, published as T.D. TTB-176 in the Federal 
Register of February 9, 2022, at 87 FR 7526. The final rule contained 
several minor inadvertent, nonsubstantive errors in the preamble 
discussion of, and the regulatory text for, 27 CFR part 5, Labeling and 
Advertising of Distilled Spirits.
    First, in the final rule's preamble, in the Derivation Table for 
part 5, subpart I, the entry for Sec.  5.153 should read ``[reserved]'' 
instead of ``New.'' In the related notice of proposed rulemaking (see 
Notice No. 176, 83 FR 60562, November 26, 2018), TTB proposed a new 
section, which it decided not to finalize, as described in the final 
rule. Second, and related to that error, in the final rule's regulatory 
amendments, the table of contents for part 5 lists the section heading 
for Sec.  5.153 as originally proposed (``Diluted spirits'') instead of 
listing that section as ``reserved'' as finalized in T.D. TTB-176. (The 
final rule correctly shows Sec.  5.153 as ``[Reserved]'' in the 
regulatory text of part 5) Third, in Sec.  5.203, which lists the 
authorized standards of fill for distilled spirits, two paragraphs were 
designated as paragraph (a)(1)(v)--one setting out a standard of fill 
of 750 mL and the other a standard of fill of 720 mL.
    The described errors were inadvertent, and their correction does 
not alter the intended meaning of any regulatory section contained in 
the final rule.
