Formulas for Denatured Alcohol and Rum

The Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco and Firearms (ATF) is proposing in this document to update the information provided for in parts 19 and 21 relating to the formulation of completely denatured alcohol (CDA), specially denatured alcohol (SDA), and specially denatured rum (SDR); the denaturants authorized for use in the manufacturing of these formulations; and the specifications for these denaturants. The updates being proposed include replacing the previously named ``Scientific Services Division'' and ``Chemical Branch'' with their new names, removing the only proprietory name listed with the denaturant denatonium benzoate, incorporating an ATF ruling that approves the use of two substitute denaturants, and making other amendments to provide clarity. ATF believes that the proposed updates will ensure that the information provided in this part is current. As part of the President's regulatory reform initiative that calls for a complete review and revision of all Federal government regulations, ATF is proposing in this document to eliminate regulatory requirements that may pose an undue burden on industry members.
