Why not give it to homeowners to burn in their fireplaces?

I suspect that it’s pine, not hardwood. Not good to burn too much pine in the fireplace. Causes chimneys to get all gunked up......can start chimney fires.

Just a guess.

--generally, you can't burn wood in that part of the world--to much "pollution" ,--

--IIRC, Vail cops have an infra-red detector to check if people are burning wood at night , in violation of the regs--
