TOM CRONE NAMED ASSISTANT ADMINISTRATOR FOR FIELD OPERATIONS
TTB Administrator John Manfreda and Deputy Administrator Mary Ryan have announced the appointment of Thomas R. Crone as Assistant Administrator for Field Operations, effective February 27, 2011. As TTB's Assistant Administrator for Field Operations, Mr. Crone is responsible for oversight, direction, and coordination of all Field Operations functions associated with TTB's tax collection and consumer protection programs. Mr. Crone brings a wealth of experience to the job along with his knowledgeable, practical, and collaborative approach that is so vital to carrying out our mission goals.
PUBLICATION OF REVISED DISTILLED SPIRITS PLANT REGULATIONS (PART 19)
In this document, we adopt as a final rule, with some changes, a proposed revision of its distilled spirits plant regulations. The revision modernizes the requirements for operating distilled spirits plants and includes a number of organizational changes to improve the layout of the regulatory texts. These changes make the regulations easier to apply, thereby facilitating compliance by distilled spirits plant proprietors and allowing those proprietors to operate in a more efficient manner. The revision also incorporates plain language principles in order to improve the clarity and readability of the regulatory texts.
This final rule is effective on April 18, 2011
