Abstract
The effect of storage after kiln-drying on the success of treatment wi th chromated copper arsenate (full-cell process) was investigated on l umber of Douglas-fir, mountain hemlock, and five species of hem-fir. T reatment of some species appeared to improve slightly after 1 month of storage, but the differences declined with additional storage. The re sults suggest that storage as long as 6 months after drying does not a dversely affect subsequent preservative treatment.
