Download as PDF lotter on DSK11XQN23PROD with NOTICES1 67452 Federal Register / Vol. 88, No. 188 / Friday, September 29, 2023 / Notices (3) Title: Principal Place of Business Address and Place of Production Coding on Beer and Malt Beverage Labels, TTB REC 5130/5. OMB Control Number: 1513–0085. Type of Review: Extension without change of a currently approved collection. Description: Under the authority of the Internal Revenue Code (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. Specific to this information collection, 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 to use an identical 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 submitted by brewers for the loss or destruction of beer. Form: None. Affected Public: Businesses or other for-profits. Estimated Number of Respondents: 2,725. Frequency of Response: On occasion. Estimated Total Number of Annual Responses: 2,725. Estimated Time per Response: None. The requirement is customary and usual business practice that imposes no additional burden on respondents. Estimated Total Annual Burden Hours: None. (4) Title: Petitions to Establish or Modify American Viticultural Areas. OMB Control Number: 1513–0127. Type of Review: Extension without change of a currently approved collection. Description: The Federal Alcohol Administration Act (FAA Act) at 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 alcohol beverage labels and ensure that such labels provide the consumer with adequate information as to the identity and quality of the VerDate Sep<11>2014 21:46 Sep 28, 2023 Jkt 259001 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, if accepted for rulemaking, TTB drafts a notice of proposed rulemaking requesting public comment regarding the creation of a new AVA or the amendment of the name, boundary, or other terms of an existing AVA. Form: None. Affected Public: Businesses or other for-profits. Estimated Number of Respondents: 15. Frequency of Response: On occasion. Estimated Total Number of Annual Responses: 15. Estimated Time per Response: 130 hours. Estimated Total Annual Burden Hours: 1,950. Authority: 44 U.S.C. 3501 et seq. Spencer W. Clark, Treasury PRA Clearance Officer.

Title: Statement of Person Claiming to Have Stood in Relation to Parent (VA Form 21P–524). OMB Control Number: 2900–0059. Type of Review: Revision of a currently approved collection. Abstract: 38 U.S.C 1315 established Dependency Indemnity Compensation to Parents (known as Parents’ DIC). Parent’s DIC is a monthly benefit payable to the parent(s) of a deceased Veteran. The payable monthly benefit is based on the parent’s (parents’) annual income. Additional funds are payable to the parent(s) if they are in a patient in a nursing home, blind, so nearly blind or significantly disabled as to need or require the regular aid and attendance of another person. 38 CFR 3.59 defines the term parent as ‘‘ . . . a natural mother or father (including the mother of an illegitimate child or the father of an illegitimate child if the usual family relationship existed), mother or father through adoption, or a person who for a period of not less than 1 year stood in the relationship of a parent to a Veteran at any time before his or her entry into active service.’’ The information collected will be used by VBA to evaluate a claimant’s parental relationship to a deceased Veteran when the claimant is not the Veteran’s natural mother or father or adopted mother or father. This is a revision of a currently approved collection. The burden has decreased due to the number of receivables over the past year with no substantive changes. An agency may not conduct or sponsor, and a person is not required to respond to a collection of information unless it displays a currently valid OMB control number. The Federal Register Notice with a 60-day comment period soliciting comments on this collection of information was published at 88 FR 144 on July 28, 2023, pages 48965 and 48966.
