Bobby Slack Posted April 29, 2013 Report Share Posted April 29, 2013 Hey guys. I have access to a sawmill in Colorado where I am going to mill slabs for my own use. Is there a law about transporting wet wood between states? Since my area is so dry I am going to air dry this timber. Any ideas? I will take care of the transportation of course. Thanks.

TRBaker Posted April 29, 2013 Report Share Posted April 29, 2013 Bobby, the best source for that sort of information is going to be from your DOT and Agricultural Departments. Some states are funny about bringing certain plants, fruits, etc. into their state, so you'll have to check with each one that is involved. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bobby Slack Posted April 29, 2013 Author Report Share Posted April 29, 2013 Thank you so much for helping. I found that there is something called the EAB Border Which is the Emerald Ash Border. http://www.emeraldashborer.info/#sthash.mVY0HaFj.dpbs Also since I am going to dry and may be process this in Colorado I did a quick search "importing wood to colorado" and got this site http://www.colorado.gov/cs/Satellite/ag_Plants/CBON/1251623388715 So there you have it. Doing a little bit of homework. Bobby, the best source for that sort of information is going to be from your DOT and Agricultural Departments.
