Sec. 252.37  Action by appropriate ATF officer.

    The appropriate ATF officer shall carefully examine the application 
to see that all the required information has been furnished and shall 
cause an investigation to be made or require any additional evidence, 
including samples, to be submitted if necessary. If the appropriate ATF 
officer finds that the liquors were transported to and deposited in a 
foreign-trade zone in good faith for the purpose of exportation or 
storage pending exportation, and that the liquors, after deposit in the 
zone, have become unmerchantable or unfit for export, he may approve the 
application and authorize the destruction of the liquor described 
therein under the supervision of the district director of customs. On 
approval or disapproval of the application, the appropriate ATF officer 
shall advise the district director of customs of his action.
