Abstract: These records and occasional letter reports are used to show compliance with the trade practices provisions of the Federal Alcohol Administration Act at 27 U.S.C. 205(b), which prevent alcohol beverage wholesalers, producers, or importers from giving things of value to retail liquor dealers, and which prohibit industry members from conducting certain types of sponsorships, advertisements, promotions, etc., unless the practice is specifically exempted by regulation.

Short Statement: Program changes at agency discretion: TTB is adjusting the reporting of the two information collections contained in this information collection approval request. Rather than the previously reported two combined reporting and recordkeeping information collections, one for private sector businesses and one for individuals or households, TTB is reporting one recordkeeping information collection for private sector businesses (see 27 CFR 6.81(b)) and one reporting requirement for such businesses (see 27 CFR 6.6(c), 8.6(c), and 10.6(c)). Things of value provided to retailers by alcohol beverage industry members are provided on a business-to-business basis and do not involve individuals or households as such. TTB believes this change more accurately reflects the regulatory requirements of, and the respondents to, this information collection. As for adjustments, due to growth in the total number of alcohol beverage producers, importers, and wholesalers regulated by TTB, and the resulting growth in the number of such industry members who furnish things of value to retailers, TTB is increasing the number of potential respondents to the recordkeeping portion of this information collection from 12,665 to 25,000. However, because this information collection consists of usual and customary records kept during the normal course of business, such as invoices and billing records, TTB is decreasing the overall estimated annual burden hours for the recordkeeping portion of this information collection from 2,112 hours to 1 hour. The reporting portion of this information collection consists of 10 respondents, with each response taking 2 hours to compile, for a total estimated annual burden of 20 hours.
