Summary:
Mandates that the state building code accept New Hampshire-grown "spruce-pine-fir south" (SPFS) lumber wherever "spruce-pine-fir" (SPF) lumber is specified, provided it meets grading standards. This aims to remove technical barriers that currently disadvantage local sawmills compared to Canadian timber imports.
