There are no program changes associated with this collection. As for adjustments, TTB is decreasing the estimated number of respondents due to a decrease in the number of specially denatured spirits users filing formulas on TTB F 5150.19. We are reporting a decrease in the estimated total burden hours for the same reason and also due to an increase in submissions of this form via TTBâs Formulas Online System, which is less burdensome than the paper form. The estimated annual number of respondents and responses have decreased by 281, and the estimated total burden for this collection has decreased by 367 hours.
