On Friday, October 13, 2023, Viance presented 17 DCOI wood pole, crossarm, post, bridge timbers and crosstie proposals to Technical Committee A366 to include DCOI in Standard CSAO80.
The proposals were well received by the committee and final approval and inclusion of DCOI in the Standard is contingent on the Pest Management Regulatory Agency (PMRA) registration of DCOI as a wood preservative.
