I just reused my 2x6,8 & 10's from my old deck and pier to build an 8x16 garden shed.  Originally installed in the 80's and still in great shape.

I guess I look at things a bit different than a lot of folks.  It's not as much the EPA but it's the idiots that build playground equipment out of highly concentrated arsenic treated lumber rather than thinking about alternative products that would be safer for kid use.  If we didn't have ADEM and the EPA would we have our 'Treasured Lake'? or would we be like Flint, Michigan.  I don't believe any of us is perfect and we all make mistakes.  Sometimes we do things we know to be right but not everyone agrees.
