Abstract
The potential for migration of copper, zinc, and arsenic from Douglas-fir lumber treated with ammoniacal copper zinc arsenate (ACZA) using Best Management Practices (BMPs) was assessed on decking over a seasonal wetland in western Oregon. Although elevated levels of specific metals were observed in some samples, no sample exhibited consistently higher levels of all three elements. Metal losses into soil surrounding wood treated with ACZA using BMPs generally did not exceed background levels.
