Many of the folks I work with who want to be compliant with the organic
standards don't want to even approach the issue. They'd rather use something
that isn't treated at all so that they don't ever have to deal with it. You
put a post in for 15-20 years, you don't want rule changes to cause trouble.
It's nice to be safe, sure, but it's also nice to not neurotically waste time and the money that time represents if the EPA has actually fixed this problem. Moreover, many of the traditionally rot resistant woods are no longer rot resistant in today's environment. Locust, for example. (due to a relatively fungal invader that is almost universal, at least it is around here.)
Thanks -Allan
