 From David Schellinger

I have a compost producer who would like to find out about toxicities in 
composts and/or the affect of chemicals in glues from plywood during and 
after composting.  If only a small amount of untreated plywood was 
composted, are the glues expected to be biodegradable or toxic to 
microorganisms, and would the end product be safe?  I appreciate the 
assistance.
