Compost pile and "treated wood"
While I agree that conditions in such an area are ripe for decay, CCA cannot
'leach' out of pressure treated lumber.

Can I make the walls for my compost pile from "green treated" or

the compost?
Conditions around a compost pile are ideal for leaching out much of
the wood preservative into the compost. You really don't want the
toxic metals in compost or the soil as a result.
