Here are my two 20# ASME tanks without OPD. They were re-certified two years ago. I have had a couple of refilling stations give me a little grief about filling them this past year.
Yep, this is a common problem. I just ran into it last week with my two 30#, pre-1998, horizontal, non-OPD cylinders which were also re-certified two years ago. Took them to the same station I'd been taking them to for the past 4 years, but they had a new attendant who insisted he had just returned from training and therefore knew that my cylinders were non-compliant with the OPD regulation. No amount of reasoning with him helped. So I got them filled somewhere else, then contacted his superiors who assured me that he would be "dealt with." I don't mind if someone is unsure and wants to err on the side of caution until they can get verification, but he was rude, adamant and 100% wrong.
