All suspensions are handled through the agencies.

The activities of the agencies are monitored by AWPB as an overview function through a field staff which makes random checks of pressure treated lumber at treating plants and destination sites. In addition, three times each year a sampling survey is conductedrandomlyat l0 9oof each agency's plants to judge efficiency. This system is similar to that used by the American Lumber Standards Corhmittee in monitoring grade marked lumber. A laboratory maintained at Arlington, Va., assays ap proximately 1500 samples of treated wood each month. These samples are all taken by agency and AWPB field staff personnel.

The quality mark is approved by all model building codes and by HUD. It is also specified by many other government and nongovernment agencies.

The AWPB quality control program is supported voluntarily by29O treating plants in the United States that primarily treat softwood lumber with water-borne preservatives. A high proportion of the pressure treated lumber produced in the United States is from these plants.

What about material treated by non AWPB plants? Many are treating treatable species with waterborne preservatives to the same standards as AWPB plants. Some use other forms of quality control and most maintain a high level of quality.

It has been the experience of the AWPB field staff thar most of the problems found in pressure treated lumber are outside the scope of the quality control programs, as in the treatment of difficult to treat species, mostly unincised, and wood too wet to treat properly. The latter found usually in material over 2 inches thick. In investigating wood failures the field staff has also found a number of cases of untreated wood being sold as treated wood, usually by a contractor. In one instance, untreated wood wasbrush coated with a wood preservative purchased at a hardware store.

The wood failures investigated by AWPB point up clearly the necessity of using properly treated material that is also properly identified by a treatment stamp. The field staff has never found a failure in properly treated wood properly used.
