Abstract: The IRC at 26 U.S.C. 5351 through 5357 provides for the establishment of bonded wine cellars, bonded wineries, and taxpaid wine bottling houses and, to establish such wine premises, these IRC sections require the filing of applications and bonds. Under these authorities, TTB has issued TTB F 5120.25, Application to Establish and Operate Wine Premises, to collect information that TTB uses to determine the qualifications of an applicant applying to establish and operate a new wine premises. Proprietors of established wine premises also use TTB F 5120.25 to report changes to required information such as location and ownership. Unless exempted by the IRC at 26 U.S.C. 5551(d), wine premises respondents use TTB F 5120.36, Wine Bond, to file bond coverage with TTB. The bond may be secured through a surety company or it may be secured with collateral (cash, Treasury Bonds or Treasury Notes). The bond protects the revenue by ensuring adequate assets are available to pay Federal excise tax liabilities.

Burden Reduction Due to:

Short Statement: There are no program changes associated with this information collection approval request. As for adjustments, while the estimated annual burden was correctly reported in the last Supporting Statement submitted for this information collection request, the burden data was not correctly entered into the related ROCIS entry transmitted to OMB in December 2016. In particular, the burden for the Application to Establish and Operate Wine Premises (TTB F 5120.25) portion of the total burden estimate was incorrectly added into the burden estimate for the Wine Bond (TTB F 5120.36) portion of the total burden estimate, resulting in an over-reporting of the total burden by 4,295 responses. Therefore, TTB is correcting the burden data for this collection request as entered into the ROCIS system. This correction will appear as decrease of 4,295 responses and 1,055 burden hours due to an adjustment in agency estimate.
