SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:

Background

On August 9, 1996, ATF published an advance notice of proposed
rulemaking in the Federal Register soliciting comments from the public
and industry on a proposal to revise and recodify the regulations
pertaining to exportation of alcoholic beverages, denatured alcohol,
tobacco products, and cigarette papers and tubes. (Notice No. 835; 61
FR 41500).
The comment period for Notice No. 835 was scheduled to close on
October 8, 1996. Prior to the close of the comment period ATF received
a request from a national trade association, the Presidents' Forum of
the Beverage Alcohol Industry, to extend the comment period for sixty
days. The Presidents' Forum stated that it needed additional time to
address the numerous

and complex issues raised in the advance notice. A member of regulated
industry, Brown and Williamson Tobacco Corporation, requested a two-
week extension, saying that they discovered during the preparation of
their written comments that several issues were more complicated than
they originally assessed. In consideration of the above, ATF finds that
a reopening of the comment period is warranted.

Disclosure

Copies of this notice, Notice No. 835, and the written comments
will be available for public inspection during normal business hours
at: ATF Public Reading Room, Room 6480, 650 Massachusetts Avenue, NW,
Washington, DC.
