The maintenance of an organic coating (paint) which meets aerospace specification MIL-C-38413 may prevent corrosion. To prevent corrosion of exposed parts, thoroughly wash aircraft after each day of spraying to remove residues of Touchdown CT accumulated during spraying or from spills. Landing gear are most susceptible. Do not make direct applications to any body of water. Shielded/Hooded Application Use shielded/hooded sprayers to control weeds between rows while protecting the crop from the herbicide. Keep shields/hoods as close to the ground as possible and avoid ground speed in excess of 5 mph. Use appropriate nozzles, spacing, and pressure to achieve coverage without allowing spray to touch or drift onto the crop. Maintain equipment in good operating condition to prevent leakage or dripping onto the crop. Refer to state extension service recommendations and equipment manufacturers' guidelines for more information on proper operation ofshielded/hooded sprayers. Spot Treatments For annual weeds less than 6 inches, use a 0.4 to 0.75% vlv solution. For annual weeds over 6 inches, use a 0.75 to 1.5% v/v solution. Use a 1 to 2% vlv solution for most perennials (see Table 3 for specific rates and timing). When using motorized spot spray equipment (rider bar), use a 3% v/v solution. See Spot Spray Dilution Table below for rates of Touchdown CT/volume of finished spray solution. Spray the solution on actively growing weeds until uniformly wet but not to the point of runoff. Retreat 14- 21 days later if regrowth occurs.

Do not apply this product by direct application (ground or air) to any body of water. Cultural Considerations: Application to annual or perennial weeds that have been mowed, grazed, or cut, and have not been allowed to regrow to the recommended stage for treatment may result in reduced control. Weeds covered with dust or weeds damaged by insects or disease may result in reduced weed control. Rainfastness: Heavy rainfall or irrigation shortly after application may require retreatment. No Soil Activity: Touchdown CT does not provide soil residual control of weeds. Only emerged weeds at the time of application will be controlled. Weeds germinating from seed after application will not be controlled. Unemerged plants arising from unattached underground rhizomes or root stocks of perennials will not be affected. RATES Follow specified rates for Touchdown CT listed in the WEEDS CONTROLLED, WOODY BRUSH AND TREES CONTROLLED section. Use the higher label rates when weeds are dense or large. Also, use higher application volumes and pressures when weed vegetation is dense. TANK MIXES WITH RESIDUAL HERBICIDES Refer to crop sections for tank mixes. Tank mixes of Touchdown CT with other pesticides, fertilizers, or any other additives except as specified on this label or other approved Syngenta supplemental labeling may result in tank mix incompatibility or unsatisfactory performance. It is recommended that the compatibility of any tank mix combination be tested on a small scale such as a jar test before actual tank mixing. Always refer to labels of other pesticide products for mixing directions and precautions which may differ from those outlined here. Use in accordance with the most restrictive of label limitations and precautions. No label dosage rates should be exceeded. This product cannot be mixed with any product containing a label prohibition against such mixing. ( 43 Tank Mixing Recommendations: 1. Fill spray tank % full with clean water. 2.

Add Touchdown CT. 7. Fill remainder of spray tank. APPLICATION PROCEDURES - NONAGRICULTURAL USE AREAS APPLICATION EQUIPMENT AND TECHNIQUES • Do not make direct applications to any body of water. • Avoid drift. Applications should not be made in low level inversion conditions, when winds are gusty or under any other conditions which favor drift. Inversions are characterized by stable air and increasing temperatures with height above the ground. The applicator may detect the presence of an inversion by producing smoke and observing a smoke layer. Drift may cause damage to any vegetation contacted to which treatment is not intended. • Compatibility with drift control additives may vary. It is recommended that the combination be tested on a small scale such as a jar test. Read and follow manufacturer's directions for use. A reduction in weed control may occur when drift control agents are used. • All equipment must be properly maintained and washed to remove product residues after use. BROADCAST APPLICATIONS Ground Applications should be made in 3 to 40 gallons of water per acre. When foliage is dense, spray volume should be increased to ensure coverage of the target weeds. Flat-fan nozzles will result in the most effective application of Touchdown CT. Spray boom and nozzle heights must be adjusted to provide coverage of target weed. Flood nozzles may result in reduced weed control due to inadequate coverage. Do not make direct applications to any body of water. ( 44 Air Applications should be made in 3 to 15 gallons of water per acre. Spray should be released at the lowest height consistent with effective weed control and flight safety. Applications more than 10ft above the canopy should be avoided. Do not make direct applications to any body of water. Do not make applications by air to forestry sites or utility rights-of-way. Use the largest droplet size consistent with good weed control. Formation of very small droplets may be minimized by appropriate nozzle selection, by orienting nozzles away from the air stream as much as possible, and by avoiding inappropriate spray boom pressure. Solid stream or low shear nozzles may be utilized to reduce small droplet formation. These nozzles direct the fluid parallel to the existing airflow to reduce shear effects. Other techniques may include reducing the fan angle of flat fan nozzles if used, or reducing the deflector plate angle if deflector type nozzles are used. Ensure the spray is released alan appropriate distance below the airfoil. For best results, each specific aerial application vehicle used should be quantifiably pattern tested for aerial application of Touchdown CT initially and every year thereafter. To minimize drift, it is suggested aerial application equipment produce the following minimum spray deposition characteristics: Volume Median Diameter (VMD) Volume Diameter (VD) {O.g} ) 400 microns ) 200 microns Prolonged exposure of Touchdown CT to uncoated steel surfaces may result in corrosion and possible failure of the part. The maintenance of an organic coating (paint) which meets aerospace specification MIL-C-38413 may prevent corrosion. To prevent corrosion of exposed parts, thoroughly wash aircraft after each day of spraying to remove residues of Touchdown CT accumulated during spraying or from spills. Landing gear are most susceptible. For aerial application in California, refer to the Federal Supplemental Label for aerial application for specific instructions, restrictions, and requirements. For aerial application, consult with State or local authorities regarding any additional requirements for aerial treatments. Banvel tank mixtures may not be applied by air in California. Do not make direct applications to any body of water. SHIELDED/HOODED APPLICATION Use shielded/hooded sprayers to control weeds between rows while protecting the crop from the herbicide. Keep shields/hoods as close to the ground as possible and avoid ( 45 ground speed in excess of 5 mph. Use appropriate nozzles, spacing, and pressure to achieve coverage without allowing spray to touch or drift onto the crop. Maintain equipment in good operating condition to prevent leakage or dripping onto the crop. Refer to state extension service recommendations and equipment manufacturers' guidelines for more information on proper operation of shielded/hooded sprayers. SPOT TREATMENTS For annual weeds less than 6 inches, use a 0.4 to 0.7% v/v solution. For annual weeds over 6 inches, use a 0.7 to 1.1 % v/v solution. Use a 0.7 to 1.5% v/v solution for most perennials (see Table 3 for specific rates and timing). When using motorized spot spray equipment (rider bar), use a 2.2% v/v solution. See Spot Spray Dilution Table below for rates of Touchdown CT/volume of finished spray solution. Spray the solution on actively growing weeds until uniformly wet but not to the point of runoff. Retreat 14 to 21 days later if regrowth occurs.

Precautions should be taken to avoid contact with crops or desirable vegetation. Equipment should be operated at speeds of 5 mph or less. Use slower speeds where weeds are dense. For improved control, make two applications in opposite directions. 46 Hand-Held and High-Volume Equipment For applications made on a spray-to-wet basis, spray coverage should be uniform and complete. Do not spray to the point of runoff. Use coarse sprays only. For control of weeds listed in Table 1 (Annual Weeds Controlled), apply a 0.5% solution of Touchdown CT to weeds less than 6 inches in height or runner length. For annual weeds over 6 inches tall, or unless otherwise specified, use a 1 % solution. Apply prior to seed head formation in grass or bud formation in broad leaf weeds. For harder-to-control perennials, such as bermudagrass, Canada thistle, dock, field bindweed, hemp dogbane, and milkweed, use a 2% solution. For low volume directed spray applications, use a 5 t010% solution of Touchdown CT for control or partial control of annual weeds, perennial weeds, or woody brush and trees. Spray coverage should be uniform with at least 50 percent of the foliage contacted. When spraying large woody brush and trees with dense and thick foliage or multiple sprouts, spray both sides to ensure adequate coverage. Injection Systems Touchdown CT may be used in aerial or ground injection spray systems. It may be . used as a liquid concentrate or diluted prior to injecting into the spray stream. Do not mix Touchdown CT with the undiluted concentrate of other products when using injection systems unless specifically recommended. CDA EQUIPMENT For control of annual weeds with hand held equipment, apply a 20% solution of Touchdown CT at a flow rate of 2 fl oz per minute and a walking speed of 1.5 mph (1 qtlA). For perennial weeds, use a 20 to 30% solution of Touchdown CT at a flow rate of 2 oz per minute and a walking speed of 0.75 mph (2 to 3 qtlA). For vehicle mounted equipment, apply in 3 to 15 gallons of water per acre. Refer to the WEEDS CONTROLLED, WOODY BRUSH AND TREES CONTROLLED sections for application rates and timing. Precautions should be taken to avoid contact with crops or desirable vegetation. LOW VOLUME EQUIPMENT For low volume directed spray applications, use a 5 t010% solution of Touchdown CT for control or partial control of annual weeds, perennial weeds, or woody brush and trees. Spray coverage should be uniform with at least 50 percent of the foliage contacted. When spraying large woody brush and trees with dense and thick foliage or multiple sprouts, spray both Sides to ensure adequate coverage. ( Soof'61 47 Selective Equipment AVOID CONTACT OF HERBICIDE WITH DESIRABLE VEGETATION. Touchdown CT may be applied through recirculating spray systems, shielded applicators, hooded sprayers, wiper applicators, or sponge bars to listed weeds growing in any noncrop site specified on this label. A recirculating spray system directs the spray solution onto weeds growing above desirable vegetation. Spray solution not intercepted by weeds is collected and returned to the spray tank for reuse. Shielded or hooded sprayers direct the herbicide solution onto weeds, while shielding desirable vegetation from the herbicide. Adjust selective applicators so that the lowest spray stream or wiper contact point is at least 2 inches above the desirable vegetation. Droplets, mist, foam, or splatter of the herbicide solution settling on desirable vegetation is likely to result in discoloration, stunting, or destruction. Better results may be obtained when more of the weed is exposed to the herbicide solution. Weeds not contacted by the herbicide solution will not be affected. In dense clumps, severe infestations, or when the height of the weeds varies so that not all weeds are contacted, repeat treatment may be necessary. Shielded and Hooded Applicators For shielded and hooded applicators, use nozzles that provide uniform coverage within the treated area. Keep shields on these sprayers adjusted to protect desirable vegetation. Wiper Applicators and Sponge Bars Equipment must be designed, maintained, and operated to prevent the herbicide solution from contacting desirable vegetation. Apply at ground speeds of 5 mph or less. Use slower speeds where weeds are dense. For improved control, make 2 applications in opposite directions. Do not use wiper equipment when weeds are wet. Use the spray solution within 24 hours of mixing. For Rope or Sponge Wick Applicators: Mix 1 to 2 gallons of Touchdown CT in 2 gallons of water to prepare a 33 to 75 % solution. Apply this solution to weeds listed in this section. For Porous Plastic Applicators and Pressure Feed Systems: Mix 1 gallon of Touchdown CT in 2 gallons of water to prepare a 33% solution up to using the product undiluted as a 100% solution.

Renovation; Seed or Sod Production Touchdown CT may be used to renovate turf in any areas described in NONAGRICULTURAL USE AREAS. Touchdown CT controls most existing vegetation prior to renovating turfgrass areas or establishing turfgrass grown for seed or sod. For maximum control of existing vegetation, delay planting or sodding to determine if any regrowth from escaped underground plant parts occurs. Where repeat treatments are necessary, sufficient regrowth must be attained prior to application. For warm season grasses such as bermudagrass, summer or fall applications provide the best control where existing vegetation is growing under mowed turfgrass management. Apply Touchdown CT after omitting at least one regular mowing to allow sufficient growth for good interception of the spray. Use Precautions and Restrictions for Turfgrass Uses • Do not feed or graze turfgrass grown for seed or sod production for 8 weeks following application. • Do not disturb soil or underground plant parts before treatment. Tillage or renovation techniques such as vertical mowing, coring, or slicing should be delayed for 7 days after application to allow translocation into underground plant parts. • Desirable turfgrasses may be planted following the above procedures. Hand-held equipment may be used for spot treatment of unwanted vegetation growing in existing turfgrass. Broadcast or hand-held equipment may be used to control sod remnants or other unwanted vegetation after sod is harvested. 61 • Application of rates greater than 12 fI ozlA of Touchdown CT may result in injury or delayed green-up in highly maintained areas, such as golf courses and lawns. • Oust XP tank mixes should not be used in highly maintained turfgrass. • Use only in areas where some temporary injury or discoloration of perennial grasses can be tolerated.

For best results, applications should be made during periods of active growth and full leaf expansion. Avoid applications during peak sap flow in spring. Alder Coyote Brush Dogwood Eucalyptus Hickory Madrone Maple Oak Poplar Reed, giant Salt-cedar Sweetgum Tan oak Willow ( 64 Note: Avoid making cut stump applications when roots of desirable adjacent trees may have grafted onto the roots of the cut stump. Tree Injections and Frill Applications Touchdown CT may be used to control woody brush and trees by using injection and frill applications in any areas described in NONAGRICULTURAL USE AREAS. Apply the equivalent of 1 ml of this product per each 2 to 3 inches of trunk diameter at breast height (DBH). For best results, apply a 25 to 100% solution of Touchdown CT to a continuous frill or to evenly spaced cuts around the tree below all branches. In larger diameter trees, better results are achieved by applying diluted material to a continuous frill or more closely spaced cuttings. Avoid runoff in species that exude sap freely by making frills or cuts at an oblique angle, producing a cupping effect. Use Touchdown CT in an undiluted form. For best results, avoid applications during peak sap flow in the spring. Make applications during periods of active growth and after full leaf expansion. Following is a partial list of species that can be controlled using this technique.

WEEDS CONTROLLED, WOODY BRUSH AND TREES CONTROLLED Water volumes of 3 to 40 gallons per acre by ground equipment and 3 to 15 gallons by air are recommended. Use the minimum spray volume that provides adequate coverage. When tank mixing with residual herbicides, refer to the individual crop section for recommendations. Apply to actively growing weeds.

Use the higher rate for larger plants and/or dense areas of growth. On vines, use the higher rate for plants that have reached the woody stage of growth. In most areas, best results are obtained when application is made in late summer or fall after fruit formation. In arid areas, best results are obtained when applications are made in the spring to early summer when brush species are at high moisture content and are flowering. Symptoms may not appear prior to frost or senescence with fall treatments. Allow 7 or more days after application before tillage, mowing, or removal. Repeat treatments may be necessary to control plants regenerating from underground parts or seed. Reduced performance may result if fall treatments are made following a frost. When plants are growing under stressed conditions, or where infestations are dense, Touchdown CT may be used at 3.6 to 7.6 qtlA or a 0.7 to 1.5% solution for spot spray clean-up.
