Abstract

The Alcohol and Tobacco Tax and Trade Bureau (TTB) is responsible for the collection of Federal excise taxes on distilled spirits, wine, beer, tobacco products, cigarette papers and tubes, and firearms and ammunition, and the collection of special occupational taxes related to tobacco products and cigarette papers and tubes. The Internal Revenue Code (IRC, 26 U.S.C.) requires that such taxes be collected on the basis of a return, and it requires taxpayers to maintain records that document the information provided on such returns. The IRC also allows for the filing of claims for the abatement, credit, remission, or refund (drawback) of taxes under certain circumstances, and it requires claimants to maintain records to support such claims. TTB uses the collected information to determine the amount of excise and special occupational taxes rightly due, and to verify respondent computations on tax returns or the correctness of claims for refund or other adjustments to tax liabilities.

Abstract

As required by the Federal Alcohol Administration Act (FAA Act) at 27 U.S.C. 205(e) and (f), the Alcohol and Tobacco Tax and Trade Bureau (TTB) has issued regulations regarding the labeling and advertising of wine, distilled spirits, and malt beverages, which are contained in 27 CFR parts 4, 5, and 7, respectively. The FAA Act provides that these regulations should, among other things, prohibit consumer deception and the use of misleading statements on labels and ensure that labels provide the consumer with adequate information as to the identity and quality of the product. Under those TTB regulations, bottlers and importers of alcohol beverages must provide certain mandatory information, conform to regulatory requirements regarding certain voluntary disclosures, and adhere to certain presentation standards for statements made on labels and in advertisements of alcohol beverages. Those regulations ensure that consumers are provided with adequate, legible, and non-deceptive or misleading information as to the identity and quality of such products. The information collection requirements related to the required alcohol label and advertising disclosures are approved under OMB No. 1513-0087. Under TTB's FAA Act authority, TTB is issuing two proposed rules affecting this information collection: Notice No. 237, Alcohol Facts Statements in the Labeling of Wines, Distilled Spirits, and Malt Beverages (RIN 1513–AC93), and Notice No. 238, Major Food Allergen Labeling for Wines, Distilled Spirits, and Malt Beverages (RIN 1513–AC94). In the first proposed rule, TTB is proposing to require disclosure of per-serving alcohol, calorie, and nutrient content information in an “Alcohol Facts” statement on all alcohol beverage labels subject to TTB’s regulatory authority under the FAA Act. In the second proposed rule, TTB is proposing to require a labeling disclosure of all major food allergens used in the production of alcohol beverages subject to TTB’s regulatory authority under the FAA Act. Under the proposed regulations, unless an exception applies, labels must declare milk, eggs, fish, Crustacean shellfish, tree nuts, wheat, peanuts, soybeans, and sesame, as well as ingredients that contain protein derived from these foods, if used in the production of the alcohol beverage. In each proposed rule TTB is proposing a compliance date of 5 years after the date of a related final rule’s publication in the Federal Register.

Abstract

This substantive change request affects how data are collected for peanut prices paid for seed. The Peanut Prices Surveys provide a detailed picture of the peanut prices paid for both seed as well as peanut prices received by producers. These are collected by two separate surveys, with peanut seed prices being obtained from various sources, such as dealers, administrative data, and growers. NASS proposes to consolidate the two surveys into one for ease of data collection as well as provide a more reliable population for reporting peanut seed prices, since the main source of peanut seed prices in administrative data are the peanut seed growers.

Abstract

The objective of this study is to conduct human slip research on three bathtubs on the market and to measure the friction demand of participants stepping into and out of the bathtubs when dry and wet. The study will involve a total of three sessions to test three bathtub surfaces, where participants will walk into the tub and step out while wearing fall arresting harness systems for safety. During these sessions, resistance forces under the foot and motion of the foot movements will be measured. The study will quantify the minimum frictional performance required for a bathing surface to reduce slips and falls. CPSC will publish the study and will share the results of the study with the ASTM F15.03 Subcommittee on Safety Standards for Bathtub and Shower Structures working on replacing ASTM F462.

Abstract

The information VA is proposing to collect does not currently exist. It will be used in order to accomplish three aims: 1) collect baseline data on the knowledge and attitudes of adult US citizens living in specified communities about Veterans, Veteran suicide, and resources available to Veterans to reduce suicide, prior to the implementation of suicide prevention programs; 2) collect follow-up data in the same communities to assess whether those knowledge and attitudes have changed over time; and 3) determine whether the programs and policies implemented by a community resulted in positive change in knowledge and attitudes. The data will be utilized by the Office of Mental Health and Suicide Prevention in VA Central Office to measure the return on investment of significant resources that have been invested to support communities in their (that is, the communities’) efforts to reduce Veteran suicide. Specifically, the Community-Based Interventions (CBI) arm of VA’s “Suicide Prevention 2.0” initiative has launched two different initiatives whose goals are to increase the successful implementation of best practices to prevent Veteran suicide in local communities. The data will allow VA to measure a baseline level of expected outcomes, follow-up levels, and to explore the role of new programs in those changes. The data will be used to perform program planning and evaluation. The data will also be used by the State teams that are engaged in the Governor’s Challenge initiative. GC is one of the initiatives supported by SP2.0 and is structured so that State teams are provided training and technical assistance by VA to expand their efforts to implement suicide prevention programs in their State. This data collection will assist the State teams to assess the effects of their new programming or policies. The Suicide Prevention 2.0 Program - Community Opinion Survey has been updated pursuant to Executive Order 14168: Defending Women from Gender Ideology Extremism and Restoring Biological Truth to the Federal Government. The gender question has been changed to “sex” and gender options have been deleted from the Survey.

Abstract

Section 313 of the Joseph Maxwell Cleland and Robert Joseph Dole Memorial Veterans Benefits and Health Care Improvement (Cleland-Dole) Act of 2022 (P.L. 117-328) requires the VA to conduct a study on financial and credit counseling by querying financial and credit counselors, homeless programs providers, and subject matters experts regarding the use of financial and credit counseling services. The intent of this survey is to identify financial and credit counseling needs of Veterans experiencing homelessness or at risk of experiencing homelessness, the financial and credit counseling services offered to these Veterans, the specific barriers that these Veterans have in accessing these financial and credit counseling services, and the effects of financial and credit counseling services on such outcomes as employment, housing status, income, and credit score. The information collected will be used to inform VA policy makers, program managers, and process improvement investigators about how to enhance financial and credit counseling services that are offered to Veterans experiencing homelessness or at risk of experiencing homelessness. The results of this survey, which will not include personally identifiable information about the individual respondents, will be shared with Congress via a congressionally mandated report. The Veteran Financial and Credit Counseling Services (VFCCS) Survey (VA Form 10-377) has been updated pursuant to Executive Order 14168: Defending Women from Gender Ideology Extremism and Restoring Biological Truth to the Federal Government. There are no longer gender options, and the “Gender” field in Question 13 has been changed to “Sex” with only “Female or Male” as choices.

Abstract

The Bank Secrecy Act (BSA) prohibits financial institutions from issuing any “bank check, cashier’s check, traveler’s check, or money order to any individual in connection with a transaction or group of such contemporaneous transactions which involves United States coins or currency (or such other monetary instruments as the Secretary may prescribe) in amounts or denominations of $3,000 or more” unless (1) the financial institution verifies, through a signature card or other account documentation or information, that the individual has a transaction account with the financial institution, and records the method of verification in accordance with regulations issued by the Secretary; or (2) the individual furnishes the financial institution with such forms of identification as the Secretary may require by regulation, and the financial institution verifies and records such information in accordance with regulations issued by the Secretary. To implement these requirements, FinCEN issued a regulation requiring financial institutions to maintain records related to the issuance or sale of bank checks and drafts, cashier’s checks, money orders, and traveler’s checks. The regulation applies to all financial institutions as defined in 31 CFR 1010.100(t). However, it is FinCEN’s experience that banks and money services businesses (MSBs) are more likely than other categories of financial institution to issue or sell bank checks and drafts, cashier’s checks, money orders, and traveler’s checks. Under 31 CFR 1010.415, financial institutions are required to maintain records of certain information related to the issuance or sale of bank checks and drafts, cashier’s checks, money orders, and traveler’s checks when the issuance or sale involves currency between $3,000 and $10,000, inclusive, to any individual purchaser of one or more of these instruments.

Abstract

Pursuant to 38 U.S.C. 111 and 38 C.F.R. Part 70, Subpart A, the Veterans Health Administration (VHA) Beneficiary Travel (BT) Program provides payments for authorized travel expenses to help Veterans and other beneficiaries obtain care or services from VHA and VA authorized non-VA providers in the community. VHA must administer payments according to statutory mandates, including the Payment Integrity Information Act of 2019 (PIIA) (Public Law 116-117). In compliance with the PIIA and other program requirements, VHA must gather certain information to determine whether BT eligibility and other criteria for approval have been met, and the amount of payment or reimbursement that is authorized under the BT program. Claimants may include Veterans and other BT beneficiaries, and entities or individuals who provided or paid for travel. Claimants may apply for BT reimbursement orally or in writing through VA Form 10-3542 or the Beneficiary Travel Self Service System (BTSSS). This standard collection of information is necessary to enable VHA to provide this benefit and appropriately ensure that funds are being paid to the correct claimant. VA Form 10-3542 has been revised to add intake fields for VHA use only. In the upper right area on page 1, two fields have been added for “Facility ID” and “Claim Received Date.” There are no changes to the estimated numbers of respondents or burden hours
