Burden decreases because of Program Change due to Agency Discretion: No

Burden Reduction Due to:

Short Statement: TTB has lowered the number of responses and the resulting burden hours because a number of small-production wineries eligible to file excise tax returns on a quarterly basis are now able to file their report of wine premises operations (TTB F 5120.17) on a quarterly basis as well. As a result, there has been a drop in the number of wineries filing on a monthly basis; now able to file quarterly. The reduction of 961 burden hours is attributed to an adjustment in agency estimates.
