What should I do if I have an existing structure made of CCA-treated wood?
If you have an existing structure (e.g. deck or playground equipment) made of CCA-treated wood, it is not necessary to remove the structure. To minimize exposure, use a penetrating oil-based wood-finishing sealant on the structure. Re-apply sealant every one or two years, depending on wear and weathering. This can help reduce the amount of arsenic released by as much as 90%. Consult your local hardware or building store for appropriate products.
