Book excerpt: As part of a federal strategy to protect the environment and human health from potentially toxic commercial chemicals, Environment Canada has evaluated chemical use practices within the wood preservation industry. During 1982-1984, Envirochem Services were retained to visit and review practices at 19 wood preservation facilities operating in four Canadian provinces, and to document its findings. In July 1984, Environment Canada established the Wood Preservation Industry Steering Committee to develop technical recommmendations for wood preservation facility design and for operational measures which would: reduce or eliminate the release of wood preservation chemicals to the environment; and eliminate harmful exposure of workers to wood preservation chemicals.
