    1. Title: Authorization To Furnish Financial Information and 
Certificate of Compliance.
    OMB Control Number: 1513-0004.
    Type of Request: Extension without change of a currently approved

[[Page 42306]]

compliance with Federal law during an alcohol or tobacco permit 
application investigation. However, the Right to Financial Privacy Act 
of 1978 (the Act; 12 U.S.C. 3401 et seq.) limits the Federal 
Government's access to the records of individuals held by financial 
institutions. The Act provides that a person may authorize a financial 
institution to disclose their individual records to a Federal agency, 
but it also requires the agency to certify to the institution that the 
agency has complied with the Act. To meet those requirements, a permit 
applicant uses TTB F 5030.6, Authorization to Furnish Financial 
Information and Certificate of Compliance, to authorize a financial 
institution to disclose their individual records to TTB, and TTB uses 
the form to certify to the institution that the agency has complied 
with the Act.
    Form: TTB F 5030.6.
    Affected Public: Businesses or other for-profits.
    Estimated Number of Respondents: 10.
    Frequency of Response: On Occasion.
    Estimated Total Number of Annual Responses: 10.
    Estimated Time per Response: 15 minutes.
    Estimated Total Annual Burden Hours: 3 hours.
    2. Title: Labeling and Advertising Requirements Under the Federal 
Alcohol Administration Act.
    OMB Control Number: 1513-0087.
    Type of Request: Extension without change of a currently approved 
collection.
    Description: As required by the Federal Alcohol Administration Act 
(FAA Act) at 27 U.S.C. 205(e) and (f), the Secretary has issued 
regulations, administered by the Alcohol and Tobacco Tax and Trade 
Bureau (TTB), regarding the labeling and advertising of wine, distilled 
spirits, and malt beverages, which are contained in 27 CFR parts 4, 5, 
and 7, respectively. The FAA Act provides that these regulations 
should, among other things, prohibit consumer deception and the use of 
misleading statements on labels and ensure that labels provide the 
consumer with adequate information as to the identity and quality of 
the product. Under those regulations, bottlers and importers of alcohol 
beverages must provide certain mandatory information, conform to 
regulatory requirements regarding certain voluntary disclosures, and 
adhere to certain presentation standards for statements made on labels 
and in advertisements of alcohol beverages. Those regulations ensure 
that consumers are provided with adequate, legible, and non-deceptive 
or misleading information as to the identity and quality of such 
products.
    Form: None.
    Affected Public: Businesses or other for-profits.
    Estimated Number of Respondents: 15,000.
    Frequency of Response: On Occasion.
    Estimated Total Number of Annual Responses: 15,000.
    Estimated Time per Response: 1 hour.
    Estimated Total Annual Burden Hours: 15,000.
    3. Title: Records Supporting Drawback Claims on Eligible Articles 
Brought Into the United States From Puerto Rico or the Virgin Islands 
(TTB REC 5530/3).
    OMB Control Number: 1513-0089.
    Type of Request: Extension without change of a currently approved 
collection.
    Description: Under the Internal Revenue Code (IRC) at 26 U.S.C. 
7652(g), the provisions of 26 U.S.C. 5111-5114 providing for drawback 
(refund) of Federal excise taxes paid on distilled spirits used in 
certain nonbeverage products--medicines, medicinal preparations, food 
products, flavors, flavoring extracts, and perfumes--also apply to such 
articles brought into the United States from Puerto Rico or the U.S. 
Virgin Islands. In particular, 26 U.S.C. 5112 requires nonbeverage 
product drawback claimants to keep the records necessary to document 
the information provided in such claims, subject to regulations 
prescribed by the Secretary. Based on those IRC authorities, the 
Alcohol and Tobacco Tax and Trade Bureau (TTB) regulations at 27 CFR 
26.174 and 26.310 require persons making nonbeverage product drawback 
claims on eligible articles brought into the United States from Puerto 
Rico or the U.S. Virgin Islands to keep certain business, formula, and 
tax payment records documenting the data regarding the distilled 
spirits and articles in question provided in such claims. Those persons 
must maintain the required records at their business premises for at 
least 3 years, during which time TTB may inspect the records to verify 
the data provided in their claims. TTB's verification of such 
nonbeverage product drawback claims is necessary to protect the revenue 
and ensure compliance with relevant statutory and regulatory 
requirements.
    Form: None.
    Affected Public: Businesses or other for-profits.
    Estimated Number of Respondents: 10.
    Frequency of Response: On Occasion.
    Estimated Total Number of Annual Responses: 10.
    Estimated Time per Response: 1 hour.
    Estimated Total Annual Burden Hours: 10.
    4. Title: Beer for Exportation.
    OMB Control Number: 1513-0114.
    Type of Request: Extension without change of a currently approved 
collection.
    Description: Under the Internal Revenue Code (IRC) at 26 U.S.C. 
5051, Federal excise tax is imposed on beer removed from domestic 
breweries for consumption or sale, but under 26 U.S.C. 5053, brewers 
may remove beer without payment of tax for export purposes, subject to 
regulations prescribed by the Secretary of the Treasury. As such, the 
Alcohol and Tobacco Tax and Trade Bureau (TTB) regulations in 27 CFR 
part 28 allow brewers to remove beer without payment of tax for export 
to a foreign county, use as supplies on certain vessels or aircraft, 
transfer to a foreign trade zone for export, or shipment to U.S. armed 
forces stationed overseas. Those regulations also require brewers to 
give notice of each such removal on form TTB F 5130.12, or brewers may 
apply to TTB to use an alternative procedure to report beer removed for 
export purposes via a monthly summary report, provided that the brewer 
completes the notification section of TTB F 5130.12 for each removal 
and maintains the form and the related supporting export verification 
records at their premises. TTB uses the required information to account 
for beer removed without payment of tax for export purposes and ensure 
that such beer is not diverted into the taxable domestic market.
    Form: TTB F 5130.12.
    Affected Public: Businesses or other for-profits.
    Estimated Number of Respondents: 280.
    Frequency of Response: On Occasion.
    Estimated Total Number of Annual Responses: 4,200.
    Estimated Time per Response: 1.65 hours for TTB Form 5130.12, 3 
hours for monthly summary report and recordkeeping alternate procedure.
    Estimated Total Annual Burden Hours: 10,170.
    Authority: 44 U.S.C. 3501 et seq.

Treasury PRA Clearance Officer.
