-----------------------------------------------------------------------
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.
