    At any time prior to final action thereon the applicant may, by

contemplated disapproval and before referral of the proceeding to the 
administrative law judge or (b) after issuance by the administrative law

officer's order disapproving the application, the appropriate TTB 
officer shall, by order, dismiss the proceeding.
