dc.description.abstractTreatment of wood with a mixture of copper, chrome and arsenic salts (CCA) is used to prevent the settlement of woodboring invertebrates. The efficacy of treatment is due to toxicity to the borers, so there is concern that preservatives may have undesirable impacts on non-target biota. This study aims to provide and assess the environmental risk posed by the use of treated wood in coastal installations. CCA-treated wood samples have been prepared to target retentions of 12, 24 and 48 kg CCA/m3 of timber. Racks of plasticiser-free plastic have been prepared on each of which are randomly arranged two replicates of each target retention plus two untreated controls. Rates of leaching of CCA components from these samples are being measured at marine sites in West Sweden, the South Coast of the UK, the West Coast of fRance, southern Portugal and Athens.pt_PT
