CCA is no longer approved as the primary wood preservative used in residential, recreational, and general consumer construction. It has been replaced by arsenic-free alternatives such as Alkaline Copper Quest (ACQ), Copper Azole (CA), and Baddac. CCA is approved for a variety of commercial and industrial applications, such as poles, marine piling, highway guard rails, highway noise barriers, and some agricultural uses.
