I've always heard that you should not burn pressure treated lumber,
but never why. Now I have a large pile of PTL that I have to burn or
pay to plant in the landfill. What is the reason not to burn?

Thanks,
John


This gal used to post in alt.building.construction, she was/is on a mission
to eliminate CCA wood. Her campaign obviously had an effect, because you
can not buy CCA for residential use any longer. She claims/claimed health
problems as a result of her neighbor constantly burning CCA treated wood.
Here's what a Google search turned up with her name and PT lumber.
