(b) Prepare a duplicate commercial invoice or shipping document for each shipment of spirits that includes the following:
(1) The quantity of the spirits transferred;
(2) The proof of the spirits transferred;
(3) A description of the shipment that includes the number and size of drums, barrels, tank trucks, etc.;
(4) The consignor's name, address, and permit number and the name, address, and permit number of the proprietor of the alcohol fuel plant that will receive the spirits; and
(5) The serial numbers of seals, locks, or other devices used to secure the shipment; and
