Alteration of Labels on Containers of Distilled Spirits, Wine, and Beer

Streszczenie

ATF is proposing to amend the regulations in 27 CFR Parts 4, 5, and 7 which implement section 205(e) of the Federal Alcohol Administration Act of 1935, which makes it unlawful for any person to alter, mutilate, destroy, obliterate, or remove any mark, brand or label on wine, distilled spirits, or malt beverages held for sale in interstate or foreign commerce or after shipment therein. The proposed amendments will reinstate a requirement that ATF approval be obtained before relabeling distilled spirits, and will make it unlawful to relabel a distilled spirits, wine, or malt beverage container if the effect of such action is to remove from the container or label any information required by ATF regulations, or a product identification code placed on the product by the producer for tracing purposes.
