Thiodan 2 pyrenone 0.3-0.03 EC 
EPA Registration Number 279-2822 
Your submission dated August ~~, ~997 
The amendment referred to above, submitted in connection 
with a registration under FIFRA section 3(c) (7) (a), is acceptable 
provided that you: 
l. Submit and/or cite all data or other material required for 
registration/reregistration of your product under FIFRA 
section 3(c) (5) or FIFRA section 4 when the Agency requires 
all registrants of similar products to submit such data. 
2.·Make the labeling changes listed below before you release the 
product for shipment bearing the amended labeling: 
a) Regarding the Small Grains use retention, the Agency 
understands that you, together with other members of the 
Endosulfan Task Force, are now actively engaged in satisfying 
the overdue data requirement and that you will keep the 
Agency apprised of progress on the study involving winter 
wheat. This letter is not to be construed as a final 
determination by the Agency regarding the acceptability of 
this use pattern.

2 
b) In the Ingredients Statement, in the footnote ***, chang~ 
"Solvents" to "Solvent". 
c) At the end of the Note to Physician, add "This product 
contains petroleum hydrocarbons (xylene range aromatic 
solvent). Care should be taken to prevent aspiration because 
of the possibility of chemical pneumonia or pulmonary edema 
due to the organic solvent in the formulation.". 
d) Replace the cu=ent HAZARDS TO HUMANS lIND DOMESTIC ANIMALS 
text with the following: 
Fatal if swallowed. May be fatal if inhaled or absorbed 
through skin. Causes moderate_eye irritation. Do not breathe 
vapor or spray mist. Do not get in eyes, on skin, or on 
clothing. Do not contaminate food or feed. Keep out of 
reach of domestic animals. Food utensils such as spoons and 
measuring cups must not be used for food purposes after use 
in measuring pesticides. 
e) In the first paragraph of the Personal Protective Equipment 
(PPE) entry, replace "category F" with "category G", since 
there is more than 40% solvent. In the PPE listing, revise 
"Protective eyewear when mixing or loading," to read just 
"Protective eyewear;" and for consistency with the rest of 
the entries, capitalize the "e" of "chemical-resistant 
apron", and the- "R" of "respirator'. 
f) Add the heading Engineering Control Statement over the 
paragraph beginning "When handlers use closed systems". 
g) In the Environmental Hazards, after " ... are important 
resources." add "Do not contaminate water by cleaning of 
equipment or disposal of equipment washwaters.". 
h) For consistency with your other Thiodan products, directly 
above "Not For Use Or Storage In Or Around The Home." add the 
heading GENERAL INSTRUCTIONS. Directly under that heading you 
may elect to add "This product is not registered for use in 
California.". Immediately under "Not For Use or Storage in 
or ArOund the Home." add- "Do not use in undiluted form.". 
In the second sentence of the paragraph beginning "Apply the 
listed", relocate "Unless otherwise noted," from the middle 
to the beginning of the second sentence. 
i) For Apricots, Nectarines, and Peaches (21) , for Peachtree 
Borer and Lesser Peachtree Borer, should a maximum number of 
quarts entry appear in the Rate of Applicationas it does for 
control of these same pests on Plums and Prunes? Such a 
modified entry would then read "i 1/2 quarts per 100 gallons

3 
or 4 to 5 quarts per acre". Also in the Rate of App~ication, 
revise "West Coast-II to "Pacific Northwest:". 
j) For Apricots, Nectarines, and Peaches (30) , in the Rate of 
App~ication, delete "West Coast- do not use more than 6 
quarts per acre". That limitation applies nationwide and 
already app'ears in the Notes for this crop. 
k) For Barley, Oats, Rye, and Wheat, for Army Cutworm revise the 
Rate of App~ication to read "1 quart per -acre" and rep~ace 
the current Method of App~ication with "Apply when sma~~ 
larvae are readily found in the fie~d. For aerial 
application, apply in 2 gallons of crop oil per acre.". 
1) For Barley, Oats, Rye, and Wheat, for Cereal Leaf Beetle 
revise the Rate of App~ication to read "1/2 to 1 quart per 
acre". For Aphids, revise the Rate of App~ication to read 
"1 to 1 1/2 quarts per acre". In the Notes for these crops, 
revise "(i.e., 11/3 quarts)" to"read "(i.e., 2 quarts)". 
m) For Blueberries, revise the Rate of Application to read 
"3 quarts per acre in 300 gallons of water". 
n) Correct the crop name to read "Brussels Sprouts". 
0) For Carrots, in the Method of Application revise "Make 
applications" to "Make applica.tion", since only one 
application is permitted per year. 
p) For Cherry, Peach, Plum Nursery Stock Dip, the full set of 
personal protective clothing is also required for this use. 
In the Notes, replace "Wear rubber gloves during the dipping 
operation." with "Full Personal Protective Equipment (PPE) 
requirements for applicators also apply to this dipping 
operation.". 
q) The Agency questions whether the Rate of App~ication entry 
for Citrus (Non-Bearing Trees and Nursery Stock) is correct. 
AgrEvo has recent~y verified that the correct rate for both 
Federal and California endosulfan 3EC for this same use is 
2/3 quarts (1/2 ~b. a.i.) per 100 gallons of water. The 
label for the subject product calls for 1/2 quart of product 
per 100 gallons of water (equivalent to 1/4 lb. a.i per 100 
gal~ons). Should this instead be 1 quart of product in 100 
gal~ons (1/2 ~b. a.i.) to match the rate appearing on the 3EC 
~abe~s? Does your residue data for Citrus support an equal 
amount of active ingredient regardless of the formulation 
used? 
r) For Collards, in the Method of Application revise "Make

I. 
4 
applications" to "Make application", since only one 
application is permitted per year. 
s) For Cotton, unite the directions block, i.e., a single line 
should separate the Insects Controlled and Rate of 
Application columns. 
t) For Kale, in the Method of Application revise "i\1ake 
applications" to "Make application", since only one 
application is permitted per year .. 
u) For Macadamia Nuts, should the Notes include a maximum number 
of applications per year? 
v) For Mustard Greens, in the Method of Application revise 
"Make applications" to "Make application", since only one 
application is permitted per year. 
w) For Pears, revise the Method of Application for Pear Leaf 
Blister Mites to read "Apply to trees as a post harvest or 
dormant treatment.". 
x) For the crops Plums and Prunes, combine Peachtree Borer and 
Lesser Peachtree Borer as a single block entry (as you have 
for Apricots, Nectarines, and Peaches) with a revised Method 
of Application reading "Best control is obtained with a 
single application post-harvest during the first week of 
September. Spray all bark areas from ground level to lower 
scaffold limbs.". The combined pests entry will have a Rate 
of Application of "1 1/2 quarts per 100 gallons or4 to 5 
quarts per acre." plus the reduced rate which is currently 
indicated as "West Coast-". However, revi-se "West Coast-" 
to "Pacific Northwest:". 
y) For Spinach, in the MethOd of Application revise "Make 
applications" to "Make application", since only one 
application is permitted per year. 
z) For Strawberries, based on your Thiodan Cottonseed Oil 
Insecticide product (the old linear version California 
label), it appears that the Rate of Application entry for the 
subject pro,duct should be expanded to the following: "1 quart 
per 100 gallons or 2 quarts per acre (Apply in a minimum of 
150 gallons of water per acre.)". Please check with your 
agricultural experts and revise' the label accQrdingly. If 
such a revision is llQt appropriate, please promptly notify 
the Agency in writing citing the reason(s). Also, for 
Cyclamen Mites revise the Rate of Application to read "4 
quarts per acre in 400 gallons of water".

5 
aa) For Strawberries.- Northwest Use Only, the full set of 
personal protective clothing is also required for this use. 
In the. Notes, replace."Wear rubber gloves.during the dipping 
operation." with "Full Personal Protective Equipment (PPE) 
requirements for applicators also apply to this dipping 
operation.". 
bb) For Tomatoes, in the Notes delete "In greenhouse applications 
wear a mask or respirator approved by MSA and OSHA for 
protection against endcisulfan. II" [under WPS full PPE is also 
required in greenhouses]. Also, for Whitefly, revise the 
Rate of Application entry to read "1 quart per 100 or 200 
gallons of water per acre". Since you have deleted field 
tomatoes, should the directions for all uses on tomatoes on 
this label be expressed in something else besides acres, 
considering that what remains is greenhouse use only? 
cc) For Walnuts, should the Rate of Application entry be 
expanded? Based on your Thiodan Cottonseed Oil Insecticide 
product (the old linear version Califo=ia "label), it appears 
that the Rate of Application entry for the subject product 
should be expanded to the following: "3 to 4 quarts per acre 
(Apply in a minimum of 150 gallons of water per acre.)". 
However, the directions on this label for other fruit and nut 
trees generally include a number of quarts per 100 gallons 
entry along with the maximum amount" of quarts per acre. 
Based on this, it may be that the Rate of Application should 
be even further expanded to read "1 quart per 100 gallons or 
3 to 4 quarts per acre (Apply in a minimum of 150 gallons of 
water per acre.)". Please check with your agr~cultural 
experts and revise this label accordingly. If neither such 
revision is appropriate, please promptly notify the Agency in 
writing citing the reason(s) . 
dd) For COMMERCIALLY GROWN ORNAMENTALS, in the Notes for 
O=amentals (Greenhouse and Out-of-Doors), delete "In 
greenhouse application, wear a mask or respirator approved by 
MSA and OSHA for protection against endosulfan." [under WPS 
full PPE is also required in greenhouses] . 
eel For COMMERCIALLY GROWN ORNAMENTALS, in the Notes for Douglas 
Fir, add. "Food utensils such as teaspoons must not be used 
for food purposes after use in measuring pesticides·.". 
ff) The Agency notes that you have only included the teaspoons 
per gallon rate for Douglas Fir but not for any of the other 
uses. Is this intentional? If not, you may add appropriate 
converted rates (2 teaspoons per gallon when the rate is 1 
quart per 100 gallon~ and 4 teaspoons per gallon when the 
rate is 2 quarts per 100 gallons). For each crop that ypu

.. .. ," 
( 
6 
elect .to add the teaspoons per gallon rate, you must then_add 
"Food utensils such as teaspoons must not be used for food 
purposes after use in measuring pesticides." to the Notes for 
that crop. 
3. Submit three (3) copies of your final printed labeling before 
you release the product for shipment. 
If these conditions are not complied with, the registration 
will be subject to cancellation in accordance with FIFRA section 
6(e). Your release for ~hipment of the product constitutes 
acceptance of these condit~ons.
