Sec.  20.56  Changes affecting applications and permits.

    (a) General--(1) Changes affecting application. When there is a 
change relating to any of the information contained in, or considered a 
part of the application on Form 5150.22 for a permit, the permittee 
shall, within 30 days (except as otherwise provided in this subpart) 
file a written notice with the appropriate TTB officer to amend the 
application. However, a change in the information required by Sec.  
20.42(a)(6) caused by approval of a new formula or statement of process 
shall not require filing a new application unless the approval is the 
permittee's first statement of process covering recovery operations.
    (2) Changes affecting waivers. When any waiver under Sec.  20.43 is 
terminated by a change to the application, the permittee shall include 
the current information as to the item previously waived with the 
written notice required in paragraph (a)(1) of this section.
    (3) Changes affecting permit. When the terms of a permit are 
affected by a change, the written notice required by paragraph (a)(1) of 
this section (except as otherwise provided in this subpart) will serve 
as an application to amend the permit.
    (4) Form of notice. A written notice to amend an application on Form 
5150.22 shall--
    (i) Identify the permittee;
    (ii) Contain the permit identification number;
    (iii) Explain the nature of the change and contain any required 
supporting documents;
    (iv) Identify the serial number of the applicable application, Form 
5150.22; and
    (v) Be consecutively numbered and signed by the permittee or any 
person authorized to sign on behalf of the permittee.
    (b) Amended application. The appropriate TTB officer may require a 
permittee to file an amended application on Form 5150.22 when the number 
of changes to the previous application are determined to be excessive, 
or when a permittee has not timely filed the written notice prescribed 
in paragraph (a)(1) of this section. If items on the amended application 
remain unchanged, they will be marked ``No change since Form 5150.22, 
Serial No. ----------.''
    (c) Changes in officers, directors and stockholders--(1) Officers. 
In the case of a change in the officers listed under the provisions of 
Sec.  20.45(a)(2), the notice required by paragraph (a)(1) of this 
section shall only apply (unless otherwise required, in writing, by the 
appropriate TTB officer) to those offices, the incumbents of which are 
responsible for the operations covered by this part.
    (2) Directors. In the case of a change in the directors listed under 
the provisions of Sec.  20.45(a)(2), the notice required by paragraph 
(a)(1) of this section shall reflect the changes.
    (3) Stockholders. In lieu of reporting all changes, within 30 days, 
to the list of stockholders furnished under the provisions of Sec.  
20.45(c)(1), a permittee may, upon filing written notice to the 
appropriate TTB officer and establishing a reporting date, file an 
annual notice of changes. The notice of changes in stockholders does not 
apply if the sale or transfer of capital stock results in a change in 
ownership or control which is required to be reported under Sec.  20.57.
