DEPARTMENT OF THE TREASURY
Proposed Collection; Comment Request
ACTION: Notice and request for comments.
-----------------------------------------------------------------------
SUMMARY: The Department of the Treasury, as part of its continuing
effort to reduce paperwork and respondent burden, invites the general
public and other Federal agencies to take this opportunity to comment
on proposed and/or continuing information collections, as required by
the Paperwork Reduction Act of 1995, Public Law 104-13 (44 U.S.C.
3506(c)(2)(A)). Currently, the Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco and Firearms
within the Department of the Treasury is soliciting comments concerning
the Miscellaneous Requests and Notices for Distilled Spirits Plants.
DATES: Written comments should be received on or before January 3,
1997, to be assured of consideration.
ADDRESSES: Direct all written comments to Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco
and Firearms, Linda Barnes, 650 Massachusetts Avenue, NW., Washington,
DC 20226, (202) 927-8930.
FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT: Requests for additional information or
copies of the form(s) and instructions should be directed to Wine, Beer
and Spirits Regulations Branch, Steve Simon, 650 Massachusetts Avenue,
NW., Washington, DC 20226, (202) 927-8183.
SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:
Title: Miscellaneous Requests and Notices for Distilled Spirits
Plants.
OMB Number: 1512-0206.
Form Number: ATF F 5110.41
Abstract: The information provided by applicants assists ATF in
determining eligibility and providing for registration. These
eligibility requirements are for persons who wish to establish
distilled spirits plant operations. However, both statutes and
regulations allow variances from regulations, and this information
gives data to permit a variance.
Current Actions: This information collection is being submitted as
an extension with changes. Upon approval of this collection, ATF F
5110.34 is being eliminated, and some of the burden formerly associated
with that form is being taken up by letterhead notices under this
submission. Also, some requirements are being shifted from the
submission of a prescribed ATF form to the submission of letterhead
applications or notices. The net effect will be an increase of 50
burden hours for 1512-0206.
Type of Review: Extension with changes.
Affected Public: Business or other for-profit.
Estimated Number of Respondents: 328.
Estimated Time Per Respondent: 5 hours.
Estimated Total Annual Burden Hours: 1,620.
Request for Comments: Comments submitted in response to this notice
will be summarized and/or included in the request for OMB approval. All
comments will become a matter of public record. Comments are invited
on: (a) Whether the collection of information is necessary for the
proper performance of the functions of the agency, including whether
the information shall have practical utility; (b) the accuracy of the
agency's estimate of the burden of the collection of information; (c)
ways to enhance the quality, utility, and clarity of the information to
be collected; (d) ways to minimize the burden of the collection of
information on respondents, including through the use of automated
collection techniques or other forms of information technology; and (e)
estimates of capital or start-up costs and costs of operation,
maintenance, and purchase of services to provide information.
