IN THIS ISSUE Greetings! This week we’re highlighting information for industry members impacted by natural disasters, 2 student intern opportunities, and a Federal Register Notice published by USDA about their National Organic Program. TTB DISASTER RELIEFIf your business has been affected by a natural disaster we understand that TTB is probably not the first thing you are worried about. We’ve tried to make it easy for you to access the information you may need if your facility or your alcohol or tobacco products have been damaged in a natural disaster, or if you expect difficulty in paying your taxes on time. Our Disaster Relief page contains links to information that can answer most of your questions. You may also call us toll free at 877-882-3277 or contact us online. STUDENT INTERNSHIP OPPORTUNITIES WITH TTBWe are looking to hire students in the Washington, D.C. area for two full-time or part-time internships in our Office of Headquarters Operations.
