BATF is a tax agency, and falls under Treasury.

Actually, the original Treasury BATF was split when DHS was created. The tax and regulatory side are still under the Treasury, and are now called the Alcohol and Tobacco Tax and Trade Bureau (TTB for short). The law enforcement and investigatory sides stayed as the BATFE (the E is Explosives) and moved under the Department of Justice. This was all done sometime in 2003, IIRC. There is still overlap, as is typical with the Fed.
