SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:
Alcohol and Tobacco Tax and Trade Bureau (TTB)
1. Title: Volatile Fruit-Flavor Concentrate Plants--Applications
and Related Records (TTB REC 5520/2).
OMB Control Number: 1513-0006.
Type of Request: Extension without change of a currently approved
collection.
Description: Volatile fruit-flavor concentrates contain alcohol
when made by an evaporative process from the mash or juice of a fruit.
However, under the Internal Revenue Code (IRC) at 26 U.S.C. 5511,
alcohol excise taxes and most other provisions of chapter 51 of the IRC
do not apply to such concentrates if the manufacturers file
applications, keep records, and meet certain statutory and regulatory
requirements. Under that IRC authority, the Alcohol and Tobacco Tax and
Trade Bureau (TTB) regulations in 27 CFR part 18 require volatile
fruit-flavor concentrate manufacturers to register using form TTB F
5520.3 and file amendments to their registrations using that form or a
letterhead application (depending on circumstances). Additionally, the
regulations require concentrate manufacturers to maintain a record file
of all approved registrations and related supporting documents. TTB
uses the collected information to identify concentrate manufacturers
and their operations to ensure that the tax provisions of the IRC are
appropriately applied.
Form: TTB F 5520.3.
Affected Public: Businesses or other for-profits.
Estimated Number of Respondents: 55.
Frequency of Response: On Occasion.
Estimated Total Number of Annual Responses: 55.
Estimated Time per Response: 2 hours.
Estimated Total Annual Burden Hours: 110.
2. Title: Volatile Fruit-Flavor Concentrate Manufacturers--Annual
Report, and Usual and Customary Business Records (TTB REC 5520/1).
OMB Control Number: 1513-0022.
Type of Request: Extension without change of a currently approved
collection.
Description: Volatile fruit-flavor concentrates contain alcohol
when made by an evaporative process from the mash or juice of a fruit.
However, under the Internal Revenue Code (IRC) at 26 U.S.C. 5511,
alcohol excise taxes and most other provisions of chapter 51 of the IRC
do not apply to such concentrates if the manufacturers meet certain
statutory and regulatory requirements. Under that IRC authority, the
TTB regulations in 27 CFR part 18 require manufacturers of volatile
fruit-flavor concentrates to submit an annual summary report using form
TTB F 5520.2 in order to account for all volatile fruit-flavor
concentrates produced, removed, or made unfit for beverage use. Such
manufacturers compile this report from usual and
[[Page 95359]]
customary business records, which, under the regulations, respondents
must retain for 3 years. TTB uses the collected information to ensure
that the tax provisions of the IRC are appropriately applied.
Form: TTB F 5520.2.
Affected Public: Businesses or other for-profits.
Estimated Number of Respondents: 55.
Frequency of Response: Annually.
Estimated Total Number of Annual Responses: 55.
Estimated Time per Response: 20 minutes.
Estimated Total Annual Burden Hours: 18.
Authority: 44 U.S.C. 3501 et seq.
