Action Summary This action amends 3 sections of the Board’s regulations governing wine wholesalers and solicitors for distilled spirits manufacturers. Changes to 3 VAC 5-60-20 are designed to make reporting of purchases and sales by wine wholesalers easier by allowing reports in lieu of the submission of actual copies of certain purchase orders and invoices currently required to be submitted to the Board. It is proposed that 3 VAC 5-60-40 be amended to increase the penalty of the indemnifying bond required of wine wholesalers from $1,000 to $2,500. 3 VAC 5-60-80 is proposed to be amended by modifying language to conform to a statute enacted by the 2006 General Assembly, and to allow the display on licensed retail premises of advertising specialty items provided by solicitors for distilled spirits manufacturers.
Exempt from APA No, this action is subject to the Administrative Process Act and the standard executive branch review process.
