ENVIRONMENTAL HAZARDS This product is toxic to fish. Do not apply directly to water or to areas where surface water is present, or to intertidal areas below the mean high water mark. Do not contaminate any body of water and do not apply when or where conditions could favor runoff. Do not contaminate water by cleaning of equipment or disposal of equipment wash waters or rinsate. Do not allow sprays to drift onto desirable plants. Drift or runoff may be hazardous to aquatic organisms and non-target plants. SURFACE WATER ADVISORY This product may impact surface water quality due to runoff of rain water. This is especially true for poorly draining soils and soils with shallow ground water. This product is classified as having a medium potential for reaching both surface water and aquatic sediment via runoff for several months or more after application. A level, well-maintained vegetative buffer strip between areas to which this product is applied and surface water features such as ponds, streams, and springs will reduce the potential loading of pyrasulfotole from runoff water and sediment. Runoff of this product will be reduced by avoiding applications when rainfall or irrigation is expected to occur within 48 hours. GROUND WATER ADVISORY This chemical has properties and characteristics associated with chemicals detected in groundwater. This chemical may leach into groundwater if used in areas where soils are permeable, particularly where the water table is shallow. Users are advised not to apply pyrasulfotole where soils have a rapid to very rapid permeability (such as loamy sand to sand) and the water table of an underlying aquifer is shallow or to soils containing sinkholes over limestone bedrock, severely fractured surfaces, and substrates which would allow direct introduction into an aquifer. Your local agricultural agencies can provide further information on the type of soil in your area and the location of groundwater. NON-TARGET ORGANISM ADVISORY This product is toxic to plants and may adversely impact the forage and habitat of non-target organisms, including pollinators, in areas adjacent to the treated site. Protect the forage and habitat of non-target organisms by following label directions intended to minimize spray drift. REPORTING ECOLOGICAL INCIDENTS To report ecological incidents, including mortality, injury, or harm to plants and animals, call 1-866-99BAYER (1-866-992-2937).

WEED RESISTANCE MANAGEMENT Huskie FX Herbicide contains a Group 4-fluroxypyr, a Group 6-bromoxynil and a Group 27-pyrasulfotole herbicide. Any weed population could contain plants naturally resistant to Group 4-fluroxypyr, a Group 6-bromoxynil and a Group 27-pyrasulfotole herbicides. The resistant individuals could dominate the weed population if these herbicides are used repeatedly in the same fields. Appropriate resistance management strategies should be followed. To delay herbicide resistance take one or more of the following steps: • Rotate the use of Huskie FX Herbicide or other Group 4-fluroxypyr, Group 6-bromoxynil and Group 27-pyrasulfotole herbicide within a growing season sequence or among growing seasons with different herbicide groups that control the same weeds in a field. • Use tank mixtures with herbicides from a different group, if such use is permitted; where information on resistance in target weed species is available, use the less resistance-prone partner at a rate that will control the target weed(s) equally as well as the more resistance-prone partner. Consult your local extension service or certified crop advisor if you are unsure as to which active ingredient is currently less prone to resistance. • Adopt an integrated weed-management program for herbicide use that includes scouting and uses historical information related to herbicide use and crop rotation, and that considers tillage ( or other mechanical control methods), cultural ( e.g., higher crop seeding rates; precision fertilizer application method and timing to favor the crop and not the weeds), biological (weed-competitive crops or varieties) and other management practices. • Scout after herbicide application to monitor weed populations for early signs of resistance development. Indicators of possible herbicide resistance include: (1) failure to control a weed species normally controlled by the herbicide at the dose applied, especially if control is achieved on adjacent weeds; (2) a spreading patch of non-controlled plants of a particular weed species; (3) surviving plants mixed with controlled individuals of the same species. If resistance is suspected, prevent weed seed production in the affected area by an alternative herbicide from a different group or by a mechanical method such as hoeing or tillage. Prevent movement of resistant weed seeds to
3 other fields by cleaning harvesting and tillage equipment when moving between fields, and planting clean seed. • If a weed pest population continues to progress after treatment with this product, discontinue use of this product and switch to another management strategy or herbicide with a different mode of action, if available. • Contact your local extension specialist or certified crop advisors for additional pesticide resistance management and/or integrated weed management recommendations for specific crops and weed biotypes. • For further information or to report suspected resistance contact Bayer CropScience at 1-866-99BAYER (1-866-992-2937). You can also contact your pesticide distributor or university extension specialist to report resistance. CROP ROTATION Huskie FX Herbicide breaks down in the soil mainly by microbial degradation. Under adverse conditions such as cold temperatures and drought conditions, degradation can be slowed. Observe the intervals listed below for the minimum time between application of this product and planting of the crops indicated and follow the additional instructions provided, if applicable. For crops not listed here, conduct a small-scale field bioassay before planting into fields treated with Huskie FX Herbicide the previous season. DO NOT plant any crop that is not included on this label for use with this product within 120 days following a Huskie FX Herbicide application. Crop Rotation Interval Wheat, Barley, and Grain Sorghum 7 days Fine fescue, Tall fescue, Kentucky bluegrass, Oats, Orchardgrass, Perennial ryegrass, Annual ryegrass, Rye, and Triticale 1 month Alfalfa1, Corn, Millet2, and Soybeans 4 months Canola, Canary seed, Chickpeas, Dry Beans, Flax, Field Peas3, Green Beans, Green Peas, Lentils4, Mustards, Onions5, Potatoes, Safflower2, Sunflowers, Sugar beets, and Timothy. 9 months 1 Thorough tillage prior to planting alfalfa and a minimum of 12 inches of rainfall or overhead, or flood irrigation, or any combination of these water sources totaling 12 inches, is required between the time of Huskie FX Herbicide application and the time of alfalfa seeding, in addition to the 4-month rotation interval. 2 Millet and Safflower: In Montana only, 8 inches of cumulative precipitation is required from the time of application of Huskie FX Herbicide before planting millet or safflower, in addition to the required rotation interval given in months. 3 Field peas: 9 months for all states except 18 months in Montana. 4 Lentils: 9 months for all states except 18 months in Minnesota, Montana, North Dakota and South Dakota. 5 Onion plantback interval of 9 months is only allowed if the preceding crop is grown with supplemental irrigation and onions are also being grown under irrigated conditions. Cover Crops Use of cover crops as a means of soil improvement, erosion control, weed and/or insect suppression following harvest in the Fall is increasing. Planting of cover crops in fields treated with Huskie FX Herbicide is allowed as long as these cover crops are not grazed by livestock or harvested for food or feed. Cover crops must be tilled under or chemically controlled with burndown herbicides in the spring. Many cover crops may be planted within 90-120 days after application of this herbicide. However, all potential cover crops have not been evaluated for tolerance to Huskie FX Herbicide and significant injury could occur. Prior to seeding a cover crop in fields previously treated with this herbicide, complete a successful small scale bioassay to provide an indication of the level of tolerance. Refer to the Small Scale Field Bioassay instructions below. Small Scale Field Bioassay To avoid potential crop injury, a field bioassay must be conducted before planting crops not listed on this label into fields previously treated with this product. To conduct a field bioassay, plant strips of the crop you want to grow in the field treated with Huskie FX Herbicide the previous season before planting the entire field. Monitor the crop for any herbicidal response to determine if the crop can be grown safely. PRODUCT MIXING Huskie FX Herbicide is formulated as an emusifiable concentrate that mixes readily with water and is compatible with many commonly used tank-mix additives and pesticide products. It is the responsibility of the pesticide user to ensure that all products are registered for the intended use. Read and follow the applicable restrictions and limitations and directions for use on all product labels involved in tank-mixing. Users must follow the most restrictive directions for use and precautionary statements of each product in the tank mixture. Follow the guidelines in this section regarding the order of mixing spray solutions of this product. Always predetermine the compatibility of all tank-mix products together in the carrier by mixing small proportional quantities in advance. Equipment Cleaning Procedure Apply Huskie FX Herbicide with clean and properly calibrated application equipment. Prior to adding Huskie FX Herbicide to the sprayer tank, ensure that the tank, filters and nozzles have been thoroughly cleaned according to the following procedure.
- Drain the tank completely, and then wash out the tank, boom and hoses with clean water. Drain again.
- Fill the tank half full with clean water and add ammonia (i.e., 3% domestic ammonia solution) at a dilution rate of 1% (i.e., 1 gallon of domestic ammonia for every 100 gallons of rinsate). Complete filling of the tank with water. Agitate and/or recirculate for a minimum of 10 minutes before flushing out through the boom and hoses. Drain tank completely.
- Repeat step 2.
- Remove nozzles and screens and soak them in a 1% ammonia solution. Inspect nozzles and screens and remove visible residues.
- Flush tank, boom and hoses with clean water.
- Inspect tank for visible residues. If present, repeat step 2. Compatibility Testing If Huskie FX Herbicide is to be tank mixed with other pesticides, compatibility should be tested prior to mixing. To test for compatibility, use a small container and mix a small amount (0.5 to 1 quart), combining all ingredients in the same proportions as the anticipated use. If any indications of physical incompatibility develop, do not use this mixture for spraying. Indications of incompatibility will usually appear within 15 minutes after mixing. Read and follow the label of each product added to the mixture. Spray Additives When Huskie FX Herbicide is applied alone in spring planted cereals, spray additives such as ammonium sulfate, nonionic surfactant, or urea ammonium nitrogen fertilizer may be added to the spray mixture to help improve weed control, especially under challenging growing conditions. If Huskie FX Herbicide is applied in a tank mixture with other herbicides or pesticides, spray additives could cause unacceptable crop response. Adding additives to the spray tank when Huskie FX Herbicide is applied as a tank-mix is not recommended unless specifically directed on the label of the tank-mix product. In winter wheat, the addition of spray additives to a spray tank with Huskie FX Herbicide will be dictated by the requirements of any herbicide tank-mix partner. Follow label of the tank-mix product regarding appropriate adjuvant requirements. Consult local your Bayer CropScience Representative or County Extension agent for additional information. Ammonium Nitrogen Fertilizer – A spray grade quality ammonium sulfate fertilizer (21-0-0-24) added to the spray mixture at an application rate of 0.5 to 1 pound per acre is the preferred nitrogen source for optimal weed control with Huskie FX Herbicide. A spray grade quality urea ammonium nitrogen fertilizer (28-0-0 or 30-0-0 or 32-0-0) at 1 to 2 quarts per acre may also be added to the spray mixture. Nonionic Surfactant (NIS) – Some tank mix options require the use of a nonionic surfactant. Use the amount of NIS recommended on the tank mix product label or at a concentration of 0.25 to 0.5% by volume (1 to 2 quarts per 100 gallons of spray solution). At least 80% of the surfactant product must be active nonionic surfactant. Avoid products that do not accurately define their ingredients. Nonionic Surfactant (NIS) + Ammonium Nitrogen Fertilizer (in water carrier solutions) – Use a nonionic surfactant at a concentration of 0.25 to 0.5% by volume (1 to 2 quarts per 100 gallons of spray solution) with ammonium nitrogen fertilizer. Use a spray grade quality urea ammonium nitrogen fertilizer (28-0-0 or 30-0-0 or 32-0-0) at 1 to 2 quarts per acre or ammonium sulfate fertilizer (21-0-0-24) at 0.5 to 1 pounds per acre. Application in Fluid Fertilizer (Winter Wheat Only) – Huskie FX Herbicide may be applied using a 20 to 32% liquid nitrogen solution as the spray carrier. For fall applications,
4 the fertilizer solution should not exceed 50% liquid nitrogen and not exceed more than 30 pounds of actual nitrogen per acre. In WA, ID and OR, do not use more than 50% urea ammonium nitrogen fertilizer as a portion of the spray carrier at any application timing. A nonionic surfactant at a maximum concentration of 0.25% by volume (1 quart per 100 gallons of spray solution) may be added to spray solutions containing liquid nitrogen. Due to the activity of fertilizer on the crop, temporary injury could result when liquid nitrogen is used as a spray carrier. Crop response symptoms due to the use of liquid nitrogen as the spray carrier include discoloration and leaf burn. Tank Mixtures for Insect and Disease Control Do not apply Huskie FX Herbicide in a tank mixture with products containing tebuconazole. Do not apply Huskie FX Herbicide in grain sorghum in a tank mixture with products containing chlorpyrifos, as unacceptable crop response can occur. Huskie FX Herbicide may be mixed with insecticides or fungicides not prohibited on this label, if those products are also labelled for use on the crops listed on this label and the application timing (crop stage) is the same as for the application of Huskie FX Herbicide. Tank mix applications of herbicides with insecticides or fungicides can cause temporary yellowing, leaf burn and/or height reduction of the crop. Refer to the specific insecticide or fungicide label for use directions, application rates, restrictions and a list of insects and diseases controlled. Tank Mixtures for Weed Control Huskie FX Herbicide is a broad spectrum broadleaf herbicide. In certain weed control situations it can be advantageous to tank mix Huskie FX Herbicide with the herbicides listed on this label to provide expanded weed control. When tank-mixing, read and follow the precautionary statements, directions for use, weeds controlled, geographic, and other restrictions on the labeling of each tank mix partner used. Ensure tank mix product is registered for the desired crop, and use in accordance with the most restrictive label limitations and precautions. See the CROP SPECIFIC USE DIRECTIONS for specific tank-mix recommendations for each use of this product. Tank-Mixing Procedure Prepare spray mixtures of this product as follows:
- Fill the spray tank ¼ to ½ full with clean water, then add ammonium sulfate or urea ammonium nitrogen fertilizer, if desired, and begin agitation or bypass circulation.
- Add the appropriate rate of Huskie FX Herbicide directly to the spray tank while continuing to maintain proper agitation.
- Add additional pesticide products, if desired.
- Add surfactant, if desired.
- Fill the spray tank the rest of the way with water, up to the desired volume prepared. Continue agitation during Huskie FX Herbicide application to ensure uniform spray coverage. APPLICATION METHODS AND TECHNIQUES This product may be broadly applied with ground boom application equipment for all uses listed on this label. Fixed-wing and rotary (helicopter) aerial application equipment may be used only for application of this product in barley, rye, triticale and wheat. DO NOT apply this product using backpack or any other handheld application equipment. DO NOT apply this product through any type of irrigation system. Thorough spray coverage is important for optimal weed control. Best results are obtained when application of this product is made to young, actively growing weeds. Apply this product to control weeds before they become competitive with the crop being grown. Broadleaf weeds listed on this label that have been injured or partially controlled by previous herbicide applications can be further controlled by this product provided good growing conditions exist. Do not apply this product for weed control in hot, dry conditions where weeds are not actively growing or where weeds are covered with dust. Rainfall within 1 hour of application of this product can result in reduced weed control. Use screens that are 50 mesh or larger on spray equipment. Spray Drift Management AVOID DRIFT. Huskie FX Herbicide is not volatile; however, damage to sensitive crops can occur as a result of spray drift. Avoiding spray drift at the application site is the responsibility of the applicator. DO NOT apply under circumstances where possible drift onto unprotected persons or food, forage, or other plantings that might be damaged or rendered unfit for sale, use or consumption can occur. DO NOT apply when the potential for drift to adjacent sensitive areas (e.g., residential areas, bodies of water, known habitats for threatened or endangered species, non-target crops) is high (e.g., when wind is blowing towards sensitive areas). Mandatory Spray Drift Management Aerial Applications • Do not release spray at a height greater than 10 ft above the ground or vegetative canopy, unless a greater application height is necessary for pilot safety. • Applicators are required to use a fine or coarser droplet size (ASABE S641). • Do not apply when wind speeds exceed 10 mph at the application site. • The boom length must be 75% or less of the wingspan for fixed-wing aircraft and 90% or less of the rotor diameter for helicopters. • Applicators must use ½ swath displacement upwind at the downwind edge of the field. • Do not apply during temperature inversions. Ground Boom Applications • User must only apply with the release height recommended by the manufacturer, but no more than 4 feet above the ground or crop canopy. • Do not apply when wind speeds exceed 10 mph at the application site. • Do not apply during temperature inversions. SPRAY DRIFT ADVISORIES THE APPLICATOR IS RESPONSIBLE FOR AVOIDING OFF-SITE SPRAY DRIFT. BE AWARE OF NEARBY NON-TARGET SITES AND ENVIRONMENTAL CONDITIONS. Importance Of Droplet Size An effective way to reduce spray drift is to apply large droplets. Use the largest droplets that provide target pest control. While applying larger droplets will reduce spray drift, the potential for drift will be greater if applications are made improperly or under unfavorable environmental conditions. Controlling Droplet Size - Ground Boom • Volume - Increasing the spray volume so that larger droplets are produced will reduce spray drift. Use the highest practical spray volume for the application. If a greater spray volume is needed, consider using a nozzle with a higher flow rate. • Pressure - Use the lowest spray pressure recommended for the nozzle to produce the target spray volume and droplet size. • Spray Nozzle - Use a spray nozzle that is designed for the intended application. Consider using nozzles designed to reduce drift. Controlling Droplet Size - Aircraft Adjust Nozzles - Follow nozzle manufacturers recommendations for setting up nozzles. Generally, to reduce fine droplets, nozzles should be oriented parallel with the airflow in flight. Boom Height - Ground Boom For ground equipment, the boom should remain level with the crop and have minimal bounce. Boomless Ground Application Setting nozzles at the lowest effective boom height will help to reduce the potential for spray drift.
5 Release Height - Aircraft Higher release heights increase the potential for spray drift. Shielded Sprayers Shielding the boom or individual nozzles can reduce spray drift. Consider using shielded sprayers. Verify that the shields are not interfering with the uniform deposition of the spray on the target area. Temperature And Humidity When making applications in hot and dry conditions, use larger droplets to reduce effects of evaporation. Temperature Inversions Drift potential is high during a temperature inversion. Temperature inversions are characterized by increasing temperature with altitude and are common on nights with limited cloud cover and light to no wind. The presence of an inversion can be indicated by ground fog or by the movement of smoke from a ground source or an aircraft smoke generator. Smoke that layers and moves laterally in a concentrated cloud (under low wind conditions) indicates an inversion, while smoke that moves upward and rapidly dissipates indicates good vertical air mixing. Wind Drift potential generally increases with wind speed. AVOID APPLICATIONS DURING GUSTY WIND CONDITIONS. Applicators need to be familiar with local wind patterns and terrain that could affect spray drift. Boomless Ground Applications: Setting nozzles at the lowest effective height will help to reduce the potential for spray drift. Handheld Technology Applications: Take precautions to minimize spray drift. Ground Application Equipment Properly calibrated ground application equipment may be used to apply Huskie FX Herbicide as a foliar spray on emerged target weeds. For optimum spray coverage and crop canopy penetration, select nozzles, nozzle spacing and a sprayer pressure that, as indicated by the manufacturer, deliver medium spray droplets in accordance with ASAE Standard S-572, such as 80-degree or 110-degree flat-fan nozzles. Nozzle types, nozzle spacing and spray pressures that produce coarse spray droplets might not provide adequate coverage to ensure optimum weed control. Do not apply this product using flood-jet nozzles or cone nozzles. Avoid uneven spray distribution, skips, overlaps, and spray drift. For best performance, do not exceed 10 miles per hour when using ground application equipment. Aerial Application Equipment This product may be applied using properly calibrated fixed-wing or rotary (helicopter) aerial application equipment only in barley, rye, triticale and wheat. Apply this product at the appropriate application rate listed on this label, along with ammonium sulfate at a rate of 0.5 pound per acre, in a minimum spray volume of 5 gallons per acre, if crop canopy and weed density allow for adequate spray coverage. Application in less than 5 gallons of spray solution per acre using aerial application equipment could result in reduced weed control. For optimum spray coverage and crop canopy penetration, select nozzles, nozzle spacing and a sprayer pressure that, as indicated by the manufacturer, deliver medium spray droplets in accordance with ASAE Standard S-572. Do not use raindrop nozzles. Flagmen and loaders should avoid inhalation of spray mist and prolonged contact with skin.

10 Weeds Suppressed The weeds listed below will be stunted in growth and/or reduced in number compared to non-treated areas. Overall performance for control may not be commercially acceptable. The degree of weed control will vary with weed size, density, coverage and growing conditions. Best results are obtained when Huskie FX Herbicide is applied before these weeds reach 4 inches in height and are actively growing. Weeds Suppressed Scientific Name Weeds Suppressed Scientific Name Bedstraw, catchweed / cleavers Galium aparine Horseweed / Marestail Conyza canadensis Bindweed, field Convolvulus arvensis Jerusalem artichoke Helianthus tuberosus Canada thistle Cirsium arvense Knotweed, prostrate Polygonum aviculare Catchfly, cone Silene conoidea Lanceleaf sage Salvia reflexa Catchfly, conical Silene colorata Mayweed chamomile / dogfennel Anthemis cotula Catchfly, nightflowering Silene noctiflora Mallow, common Malva neglecta Chamomile, false Matricaria maritima Nightshade, cutleaf Solanum triflorum Chickweed, common Stellaria media Pepperweed, Virginia Lepidium virginicum Dandelion (established) Taraxacum officinale Sharppoint fluvellin Kickxia elatine Dock, curly Rumex crispus Witchgrass Panicum capillare Henbit Lamium amplexicaule GRAIN SORGHUM APPLICATION INSTRUCTIONS Best weed control in grain sorghum is achieved with an integrated weed management approach of crop rotation, herbicides and tillage. Weeds should be controlled prior to planting. Huskie FX Herbicide is a selective postemergence herbicide for control of critical broadleaf weeds in grain and forage sorghum, such as tall waterhemp, palmer amaranth, and redroot pigweed. Apply 15 to 19 fluid ounces of Huskie FX Herbicide in a minimum of 10 gallons of spray volume per acre to actively growing grain or forage sorghum between the 3-leaf growth stage up to 30 inches or prior to flag leaf emergence, whichever comes first, using ground application equipment only. In denser canopies or when larger weeds are present, increase the spray volume to 15 gallons per acre to ensure thorough spray coverage on target weeds. Make no more than 2 applications of Huskie FX Herbicide per year with a minimum of 11 days between applications. Transitory leaf burn will occur following application of Huskie FX Herbicide in grain sorghum. Stunting and yellowing can also occur. These early symptoms generally dissipate within 21 days and do not affect yield. Crop response will be greater in small grain sorghum that is stressed by unfavorable growing conditions, such as high temperatures and humidity. Do not apply Huskie FX Herbicide if transient early season crop injury is not acceptable. Different sorghum varieties may differ in their tolerance to postemergence herbicides. If a sorghum variety or hybrid has not been tested (especially newly released varieties), treat only a small area until tolerance is confirmed before treating large acreages. Sensitivity of sweet sorghum (sorgo), sudangrass, sorghum-sudangrass hybrids, or dual-purpose sorghum varieties to Huskie FX Herbicide is not known and the use of Huskie FX Herbicide on these sorghum types is not recommended. For optimum weed control when Huskie FX Herbicide is applied under challenging growing conditions, apply this product in a spray solution with one pound of ammonium sulfate per acre. Huskie FX Herbicide can also be combined with 0.25% by volume (1 quart per 100 gallons of spray solution) of a nonionic surfactant or 0.5% by volume (2 quarts per 100 gallons of spray solution) of a high surfactant oil concentrate (HSOC) to increase performance. Unacceptable crop response can occur when Huskie FX Herbicide is applied to acreage that has been previously treated with any product containing mesotrione. See the APPLICATION METHODS AND TECHNIQUES and PRODUCT MIXING sections of this label for more information. TANK MIXTURES Huskie FX Herbicide may be tank-mixed with products containing one or more of the active ingredients listed below. Ensure that the product used is labeled for use with the crop being grown. It is the responsibility of the pesticide user to ensure that the intended use is included on the label of all products added to a tank mixture. Read and follow label directions for all products added to the mix and use in accordance with the most restrictive label limitations and precautions. Huskie FX Herbicide is a broadleaf herbicide and will not control key grass weeds in grain and forage sorghum. A tank-mix of Huskie FX Herbicide with 0.25 to 1.0 pound atrazine per acre will strengthen and expand weed control. Refer to the specific atrazine product label for use directions, maximum application rates, restrictions and a list of weeds controlled for your area and soil type. Consult your local Bayer CropScience Representative or certified crop advisor for additional information. Compatibility of Huskie FX Herbicide with other pesticide products should always be predetermined before mixing large quantities of spray solution. See the PRODUCT MIXING section of this label for more information on preparing tank mixtures and using other spray additives with this product.

Do not apply directly to water or to areas where surface water is present, or to intertidal areas below the mean high water mark. Do not contaminate any body of water and do not apply when or where conditions could favor runoff. Do not contaminate water by cleaning of equipment or disposal of equipment wash waters or rinsate. Do not allow sprays to drift onto desirable plants. Drift or runoff may be hazardous to aquatic organisms and non-target plants. SURFACE WATER ADVISORY This product may impact surface water quality due to runoff of rain water. This is especially true for poorly draining soils and soils with shallow ground water. This product is classified as having a medium potential for reaching both surface water and aquatic sediment via runoff for several months or more after application. A level, well-maintained vegetative buffer strip between areas to which this product is applied and surface water features such as ponds, streams, and springs will reduce the potential loading of pyrasulfotole from runoff water and sediment. Runoff of this product will be reduced by avoiding applications when rainfall or irrigation is expected to occur within 48 hours. GROUND WATER ADVISORY This chemical has properties and characteristics associated with chemicals detected in groundwater. This chemical may leach into groundwater if used in areas where soils are permeable, particularly where the water table is shallow. Users are advised not to apply pyrasulfotole where soils have a rapid to very rapid permeability (such as loamy sand to sand) and the water table of an underlying aquifer is shallow or to soils containing sinkholes over limestone bedrock, severely fractured surfaces, and substrates which would allow direct introduction into an aquifer. Your local agricultural agencies can provide further information on the type of soil in your area and the location of groundwater. NON-TARGET ORGANISM ADVISORY This product is toxic to plants and may adversely impact the forage and habitat of non-target organisms, including pollinators, in areas adjacent to the treated site. Protect the forage and habitat of non-target organisms by following label directions intended to minimize spray drift. REPORTING ECOLOGICAL INCIDENTS To report ecological incidents, including mortality, injury, or harm to plants and animals, call 1-866-99BAYER (1-866-992-2937).
