27 C.F.R. Subpart R—Containers and Marks
Title 27 - Alcohol, Tobacco Products and Firearms
(a) General. Proprietors shall use for any purpose of containing, storing, transferring, conveying, removing, or withdrawing spirits or denatured spirits under this part only containers which are authorized by, or under the provisions of this part for such purpose, and a container so authorized will be deemed to be an approved container for such purpose. Except where stated otherwise, the provisions of part 20 of this chapter apply to containers used for containing, storing and shipping of articles, and the provisions of 27 CFR part 24 apply to containers used for storage or transfer of wine. Except for liquor bottles, this subpart does not regulate or prohibit the use on plant premises of any container for purposes other than containing alcoholic substances. (b) Alternate containers. In addition to the types of containers specifically authorized by this part for a particular purpose, a container of another type may be authorized for that purpose by the appropriate TTB officer on a finding by him that the use of such container will afford protection to the revenue equal to or greater than that afforded by the containers specifically authorized by this part, and that the use will not cause administrative difficulty. If another container is so authorized by the appropriate TTB officer, he shall prescribe the detail and manner in which such container shall be constructed, protected, and marked, consistent with the provisions of this part and the extent of such use. Similarly, where a container authorized for a particular purpose is required by this subpart to be made of specified materials, the appropriate TTB officer may authorize the use of containers made of other materials which he has found to be suitable for the intended purpose.

(2) The conveyance (or in the case of compartmented conveyances, each compartment) shall be so arranged that it can be completely drained. (3) Each tank car or tank truck shall have permanently and legibly marked thereon its number, capacity in wine gallons, and the name or symbol of its owner. (4) If the conveyance consists of two or more compartments, each compartment shall be identified and the capacity of each shall be marked thereon.

(b) Proprietor's responsibility. Before filling any bulk conveyance, the proprietor shall examine it to ascertain that it meets the requirements of this section and is otherwise suitable for receiving the spirits, denatured spirits, or wines, and he shall refrain from, or discontinue, using any such conveyance found by him or by an appropriate TTB officer to be unsuitable.

§ 19.593 Package identification numbers in production and storage.
(a) General. Packages of spirits filled during production or storage operations after December 31, 1979, shall be marked with a lot identification representing the date the package is filled, and consisting, in the order shown, as follows:
(1) The last two digits of the calendar year;

(b) Packages constituting a lot. Packages of spirits received from customs custody or filled during any one day shall be given the same lot identification subject to the following conditions:

§ 19.594 Numbering of packages and cases in processing.
(a) General. Packages of spirits and denatured spirits filled during processing operations and cases containing bottles or other containers of spirits and denatured spirits shall, when filled, be consecutively numbered in a separate series by the proprietor commencing with “1” in each series of serial numbers, except that any series of such numbers in use may be continued. When the numbering in any series reaches “1,000,000”, the proprietor may recommence the series. However, a new series for packages of spirits and denatured spirits filled during processing operations shall be given an alphabetical prefix or suffix. For additional identification, separate series of serial numbers, distinguished from each other by the use of alphabetical prefixes or suffixes, may be established to identify size of bottles, brand names, or other information, on written notice to the appropriate TTB officer. Remnant cases shall be given the serial number of the last full case followed by the letter R. Where there is a change in the individual, firm, corporate name, or trade name, all series in use at that time shall be continued. However, for a change in proprietorship, a new series shall be commenced.
(b) Alternative method for spirits, including denatured spirits, for industrial use. Instead of the numbering required by paragraph (a) of this section, packages and cases of spirits, including denatured spirits, for industrial use filled in processing may be marked with lot identification numbers provided in §19.593.
