Regulations: Distilled spirits standards, malt beverage
OMB’s Office of Information and Regulatory Affairs (OIRA) reported it completed its review of proposed rules relating to the standards for distilled spirits and the malt beverage net content labeling regulation.
Treasury regulations that are identified as “major” regulations are subject to review by OMB’s OIRA before being issued, pursuant to Executive Order 13771. OIRA completed its review on June 13, 2019.
The proposed regulations are listed on the OIRA website as:
- RIN: 1513-AC45: Elimination of certain standards of fill for distilled spirits; amendment of malt beverage net contents labeling regulation
The U.S. Treasury Department will be expected to release these regulations, now that OIRA review has been concluded.
