In Notice No. 815 the Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco and Firearms (ATF) solicited comments on its proposal to issue regulations specifically setting forth the procedures for the issuance, denial, and revocation of certificates of label approval (COLAs), certificates of exemption from label approval, and distinctive liquor bottle approvals. ATF is reopening the comment period for Notice No. 815 in order to allow all interested persons more time to prepare and submit comments. DATES: Written comments must be received by February 21, 1996. ADDRESSES: Send written comments to Chief, Wine, Beer and Spirits Regulations Branch, Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco and Firearms, P.O. Box 50221, Washington, DC 20091-0221 (Attn: Notice No. 815) FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT: Tami Light, Wine, Beer and Spirits Regulations Branch, 650 Massachusetts Avenue, NW., Washington, DC 20226; telephone (202) 927-8210. SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: Background On September 13, 1995, ATF published Notice No. 815, a notice of proposed rulemaking, in the Federal Register (60 FR 47506). ATF is soliciting comments on its proposal to issue regulations specifically setting forth the procedures for the issuance, denial, and revocation of certificates of label approval (COLAs), certificates of exemption from label approval, and distinctive liquor bottle approvals. The proposed denial and revocation regulations are new, whereas the proposed issuance regulations are more specific than the current regulations. The proposed regulations would also codify the procedures for administratively appealing the denial or revocation of certificates of label approval, exemptions from label approval, or distinctive liquor bottle approvals. The comment period for Notice No. 815 closed on December 12, 1995. Prior to the end of the comment period ATF received a request for an extension of the comment period. This request was submitted by the Beer Institute in order that they may carefully address the issues raised in Notice No. 815, an area where a solid industry-government working relationship is critical. In consideration of this request, ATF has decided to reopen the comment period for 30 days from the date of publication of this notice in the Federal Register. All written comments received will be considered in the development of a decision on this matter. Comments that provide the factual basis supporting the views or suggestions presented will be particularly helpful in developing a reasoned regulatory decision on this matter.
