HTN: Bottle Bill Bumped

New York State's effort to add deposit fees to bottled water has been delayed until April of next year. A federal judge has put the measure on hold after bottlers argued they were not given enough time to comply. The delay means that 115-million dollars in revenues to the state will have to wait. Environmentalists blasted the decision saying the nearly one year set back will put billions of plastic bottles into the garbage system instead of recycling.
