Abstract:
Section 103 of the Federal Alcohol Administration Act (FAA Act, 27 U.S.C. 203) requires that a person must apply to the Secretary of the Treasury (the Secretary) for a "basic permit" before beginning business as: (1) An importer into the United States of distilled spirits, wine, or malt beverages; (2) a producer of distilled spirits or wine; or (3) a wholesaler of distilled spirits, wine, or malt beverages. In addition, section 104 of the FAA Act (27 U.S.C. 204) prescribes who is and who is not entitled to a basic permit, and it authorizes the Secretary to prescribe the manner and form of, and the information required for, basic permit applications. Under those FAA Act authorities, the TTB regulations in 27 CFR part 1, subpart C, require that new applications for FAA Act basic permits be made on form TTB F 5100.24. The collection information enables TTB to determine the location of the business, its ownership or control, the extent of its operations, and if the applicant is qualified under the FAA Act to receive a new basic permit. Basic permit qualifications help ensure that alcohol beverage industry members are likely to operate their businesses in conformity with Federal laws and regulations related to the labeling, advertising and marketing of alcohol beverage products, as well as those related to alcohol excise tax liability and payment.

Short Statement:
There is no program change associated with this information collection at this time, 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 and responses to this information collection, from 10,525 each to 11,300 (with each respondent making 1 annual response as previously reported). However, TTB is decreasing the estimated total annual burden hours for this information collection, from 11,538 hours to 11,470 hours. The decrease in annual burden is due to a decrease in the average per-response burden, from 1.0962 hours to 1.01504 hours, which results from an increase in the number of applications submitted electronically via TTB’s Permits Online (PONL) system, from 81 percent of all applications to 97 percent. This increased use of electronic submission by respondents also decreases the postage and mailing supply costs associated with this information collection, from $20,250.00 per year to $4,080.00.
