In general, the Internal Revenue Code (IRC) at 26 U.S.C. 5001 imposes a Federal excise tax on distilled spirits produced or imported into the United States. Additionally, the IRC at 26 U.S.C. 5207 requires that distilled spirits plant (DSP) proprietors keep records and submit reports regarding their production, storage, denaturation, and processing operations in as the Secretary of the Treasury prescribes by regulation. As defined in section 5207, DSP processing activities include receipt or transfer of alcoholic ingredients used in spirits production, bottling and packaging of distilled spirits, and removal of distilled spirits from the DSP premises. Under that IRC authority, the Alcohol and Tobacco Tax and Trade Bureau (TTB) regulations in 27 CFR part 19 require DSP proprietors to keep certain daily or transaction records related to their processing operations, including processing records related to rums from Puerto Rico, the U.S. Virgin Islands, and other locations, as well as records related to any wholesale liquor dealer operations or taxpaid storeroom operations they conduct. Based on those records, the part 19 regulations also require DSP proprietors to submit summary monthly reports of their processing operations using form TTB F 5110.28. TTB uses the collected information to ensure proper tax collection. TTB also aggregates the collected information to produce generalized distilled spirits statistical reports for release to the public.

There are no program changes associated with this collection. However, due to changes in agency estimates resulting from continued growth in the number of DSPs in the United States, particularly small distilleries TTB is increasing the number of annual respondents, responses, and burden hours reported for this collection, from 3,700 respondents to 4,900, from 44,400 responses to 58,800, and from 88,800 hours to 117,600. However, due to changes in agency estimates resulting from more DSP respondents using Pay.gov to submit their monthly processing operations reports at no cost to themselves, TTB is decreasing the mailing costs associated with this information collection.
