Michigan Form 2196 PDF Details

The Michigan Department of Treasury provides an opportunity for retailers and dealers involved in the sale of beverages in returnable containers to recuperate some of the expenses incurred through their handling of empty returnable containers. This is made possible through the Report Year 2196 (Rev. 09-12) 2012 Request for Bottle Deposit Fund Reimbursement, rooted in the provisions of Public Act 148 of 1989. The essence of this act is to offer financial relief to businesses that contribute to the state's recycling efforts by managing the return of containers that once held their sold beverages. By submitting this form, eligible entities can claim a portion of funds, which originate from an excess of collected over redeemed deposits by manufacturers and distributors. The form specifies that submissions are expected by June 1, 2013, warning that any applications postmarked after this date will not be entertained. Furthermore, the document outlines the prerequisites for eligibility, including the necessity of reporting the actual number rather than the dollar value of handled containers and bases reimbursement issuance partly on whether the entity has also originated deposits on containers. Adequate completion and timely submission of this form not only support the smooth operation of Michigan's bottle deposit system but also ensure that eligible retailers and dealers receive due compensation for their role in promoting recycling within the state.

The Initiated Law of 1976 defi nes “returnable container” and “empty returnable container” as follows:

”Returnable container” means a beverage container upon which a deposit of at least 10 cents has been paid, or is required to be paid upon removal of the container from the sale or consumption area, and for which a refund of at least 10 cents in cash is payable by every dealer or distributor in this state of that beverage in beverage containers . . .

“Empty returnable container” means a returnable container which contains nothing except the residue of its original contents.

The Michigan Department of Treasury interprets the word “handled” as found in Public Act 148 of 1989 to mean an empty returnable container which a consumer has returned to a dealer for a deposit refund. It also includes empty returnable containers which, when full, were sold by a dealer for con- sumption on the premises but upon which no deposit was collected or a refund given to a consumer.
