Abstract:
Under the authority of the Internal Revenue Code (IRC) at 26 U.S.C. 5051, 5052, 5415, 7805, and the authority of the Federal Alcohol Administration Act (FAA Act) at 27 U.S.C. 205(e), the TTB regulations in 27 CFR parts 7 and 25 require beer and malt beverage producers and importers to file a formula when certain non-exempted ingredients, flavors, colors, or processes are used to produce a non-standard fermented beverage product. This information collection, which respondents submit to TTB as a written notice, is necessary to protect the revenue by ensuring that non-standard fermented beverage products are properly classified for excise tax purposes, and is necessary to protect the public by ensuring that non-standard imported fermented beverage products are correctly labeled under the FAA Act.

Short Statement:
There are no program changes associated with this information collection at this time, and TTB is submitting it for extension purposes only. As for adjustments, while the estimated number of annual respondents remains the same as previously reported at 550, TTB is increasing the average number of annual responses per respondent from 3 to 3.3 in order to account for those formula approval applications for which TTB also requires submission of a product sample. This change, which is due to a change in agency estimates resulting from more complete data, results in an increase in the estimated number of annual responses, from 1,650 to 1,815, and an increase in the estimated total annual burden, from 1,650 hours to 1,815.
