I know someone who works at a parts store, and this is a state law that IS already in effect, and for every can you buy that is the old style, the place that sold it to you is liable for a MASSIVE fine. (its on the order of thousands of dollars per can. ) The deposit is not taxed, and is fully refunded on return of the can, but the can must be returned within 90 days. The only reason they want the can back is to remove any residual refrigerant in the can, not for the can itself.
