Dear Shannon: 
 
The Agency, in accordance with the Federal Insecticide, Fungicide and Rodenticide Act 
(FIFRA), as amended, has completed reviewing all the information submitted with your 
application to support the Registration Review of the above referenced product in connection 
with the Chlorimuron and Sulfentrazone Interim Decisions, and has concluded that your 
submission is acceptable. The label referred to above, submitted in connection with registration 
under FIFRA, as amended, is acceptable. 
 
Should you wish to add/retain a reference to the company’s website on your label, then please be 
aware that the website becomes labeling under the Federal Insecticide Fungicide and Rodenticide 
Act and is subject to review by the Agency. If the website is false or misleading, the product 
would be misbranded and unlawful to sell or distribute under FIFRA section 12(a)(1)(E). 40 
CFR 156.10(a)(5) list examples of statements EPA may consider false or misleading. In addition, 
regardless of whether a website is referenced on your product’s label, claims made on the 
website may not substantially differ from those claims approved through the registration process. 
Therefore, should the Agency find or if it is brought to our attention that a website contains false 
or misleading statements or claims substantially differing from the EPA approved registration, 
the website will be referred to the EPA’s Office of Enforcement and Compliance. 
 
A copy of your label stamped “Accepted” is enclosed. Products shipped after 12 months from the 
date of this amendment must bear the new revised label. Your release for shipment of the 
product bearing the amended label constitutes acceptance of these conditions. If these conditions 
are not complied with, the registration will be subject to cancellation in accordance with FIFRA 
section 6. 
 
If you have any questions about this letter, please contact Miguel Zavala by phone at 973-873-
5298, or via email at zavala.miguel@epa.gov.
