Abstract:
As part of the Alcohol and Tobacco Tax and Trade Bureau's efforts to improve customer service, we survey respondents who complete and submit applications electronically using our online systems--Permits Online (PONL) for original or amended alcohol or tobacco permits, Formulas Online (FONL) for approval of certain alcohol product formulas, and COLAs Online for submission of certificates of label approval (COLAs) for alcohol beverages sold in interstate commerce. These customer satisfaction surveys assist TTB in identifying potential customer needs and problems, along with opportunities for improvements in our PONL, FONL, COLAs Online electronic application systems.

Miscellaneous Actions
Short Statement:
Program Changes: As a matter of agency discretion, TTB is decreasing the number of annual respondents, responses, and burden hours associated with this information collection. First, due to the limited number of respondents who submit new and amended alcohol and tobacco industry permit applications on paper forms, TTB is no longer sending customer satisfaction surveys to respondents who file such permit applications using paper forms. This change eliminates the two customer satisfaction survey instruments for paper permit applications, resulting in an estimated annual burden reduction of 750 respondents, 750 responses, and 150 hours for this collection. Second, TTB is further reducing the reported burden for this collection to match the estimated number of the four remaining surveys conducted under this collection. In total, the estimated annual burden for this collection decreases from 20,000 respondents, 20,000 responses, and 4,000 hours to 18,000 respondents, 8000 responses, and 3,600 hours. In addition, because TTB is eliminating customer satisfaction surveys for new and amended alcohol and tobacco permits filed on paper forms, TTB is revising the title of this information collection request from “Customer Satisfaction Surveys for Permit Applications, Permits Online (PONL), Formulas Online (FONL), and COLAs Online,” to “Customer Satisfaction Surveys for Permits Online (PONL), Formulas Online (FONL), and COLAs Online.”
