 CHAPTER I--ALCOHOL AND TOBACCO TAX AND TRADE BUREAU, DEPARTMENT OF THE 
                                TREASURY
 
PART 17_DRAWBACK ON TAXPAID DISTILLED SPIRITS USED IN MANUFACTURING 
 
                Subpart E_Bonds and Consents of Sureties
 
Sec.  17.107  Strengthening bonds.

    Whenever the amount of a bond on file and in effect becomes 
insufficient, the principal may give a strengthening bond in a 
sufficient amount, provided the surety is the same as on the bond 
already on file and in effect; otherwise a superseding bond covering the 
entire liability shall be filed. Strengthening bonds, filed to increase 
the bond liability of the surety, shall not be construed in any sense to 
be substitute bonds, and the appropriate TTB officer shall not approve a 
strengthening bond containing any notation which may be interpreted as a 
release of any former bond or as limiting the amount of either bond to 
less than its full amount.
