Respirator fit testing, medical qualification, and training Using a program that conforms to OSHA’s requirements (see 29 CFR Part 1910.134), employers must verify that any handler who uses a respirator is: • Fit-tested and fit-checked, • Trained, and • Examined by a qualified medical practitioner to ensure physical ability to safely wear the style of respirator to be worn. A qualified medical practitioner is a physician or other licensed health care professional who will evaluate the ability of a worker to wear a respirator. The initial evaluation consists of a questionnaire that asks about medical conditions (such as a heart condition) that would be problematic for respirator use. If concerns are identified, then additional evaluations, such as a physical exam, might be necessary. The initial evaluation must be done before respirator use begins. Handlers must be reexamined by a qualified medical practitioner if their health status or respirator style or use- conditions change.
Upon request by local/state/federal/tribal enforcement personnel, employers must provide documentation demonstrating how they have complied with these requirements.
User Safety Requirements
Follow manufacturer’s instructions for cleaning/maintaining PPE. If no such instructions for washables exist, use detergent and hot water. Keep and wash PPE separately from other laundry.
Engineering Controls
Heritage Fungicide Page 4 When handlers use closed systems, enclosed cabs, or aircraft in a manner that meets the requirements listed in the Worker Protection Standard (WPS) for agricultural pesticides (40 CFR 170.240 (d)(4-6), the handler PPE requirements may be reduced or modified as specified in the WPS. Human flagging is prohibited.
IMPORTANT: When reduced PPE is worn because a closed system is being used, handlers must be provided all PPE specified above for “applicators and other handlers” and have such PPE immediately available for use in an emergency, such as a spill or equipment breakdown.
User Safety Recommendations Users should: • Wash hands before eating, drinking, chewing gum, using tobacco or using the toilet. Wash thoroughly with soap and water after handling. • Remove clothing/PPE immediately if pesticide gets inside. Then wash thoroughly and put on clean clothing. • Remove PPE immediately after handling this product. Wash the outside of gloves before removing. As soon as possible, wash thoroughly and change into clean clothing.
Environmental Hazards
This pesticide is toxic to freshwater and estuarine/marine fish and aquatic invertebrates. Azoxystrobin can be persistent for several months or longer. Do not apply directly to water, or to areas where surface water is present, or to intertidal areas below the mean high-water mark. Drift and runoff may be hazardous to aquatic organisms in neighboring areas. Do not contaminate water when disposing of equipment wash water or rinsate.
Groundwater Advisory
Azoxystrobin and a degradate of azoxystrobin are known to leach through soil to groundwater under certain conditions as a result of label use. This chemical may leach into groundwater if used in areas where soils are permeable, particularly where the water table is shallow.
Heritage Fungicide Page 5 Surface Water Advisory
This product may impact surface water quality due to run-off of rain water. This is especially true for poorly draining soils and soils with shallow groundwater. This product is classified as having a high potential for reaching surface water via run-off 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 azoxystrobin and a degradate of azoxystrobin from run-off water and sediment. Run-off of this product also will be reduced by avoiding applications when rainfall or irrigation is expected to occur within 48 hours.
Notify state and/or Federal authorities and Syngenta immediately if you observe any adverse environmental effects due to use of this product.

SPRAY DRIFT MANAGEMENT
SPRAY DRIFT
Aerial Applications: • Do not release spray at a height greater than 10 ft above the ground or crop canopy, unless a greater application height is necessary for pilot safety. • Applicators are required to select nozzles that deliver Medium to coarse spray droplets in accordance with ASABE Standard S-572.1. • Do not apply when wind speeds exceed 15 mph at the application site. If the windspeed is greater than 10 mph, the boom length must be 65% or less of the wingspan for fixed wing aircraft and 75% or less of the rotor diameter for helicopters. Otherwise, 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.
Groundboom Applications: • User must only apply with the release height recommended by the manufacturer, but no more than 4 ft above the ground or crop canopy. • Applicators are required to use a medium or coarser droplet size (ASABE S572.1). • Do not apply when wind speeds exceed 15 mph at the application site. • Do not apply during temperature inversions.
Heritage Fungicide Page 10 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 favorable 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 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.
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 now wind. The presence of an inversion can be
Heritage Fungicide Page 11 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. Avoid applications during temperature inversions.
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.
AVOIDING SPRAY DRIFT IS THE RESPONSIBILITY OF THE APPLICATOR.
INTEGRATED PEST (DISEASE) MANAGEMENT (IPM)
Heritage Fungicide should be integrated into an overall disease and pest management strategy whenever the use of a fungicide is required. Cultural practices known to reduce disease development, such as planting of resistant cultivars, removal of plant debris to reduce inoculum, and water management, should be followed. The following sections in this label identify specific IPM recommendations for each crop. Consult your local agricultural, turf and ornamental authorities for additional IPM strategies established for your area. Heritage Fungicide may be used in State Agricultural Extension advisory (disease forecasting) programs that recommend application timing based on environmental factors favorable for disease development.
Heritage Fungicide Page 12 RESISTANCE MANAGEMENT
For resistance management, Heritage Fungicide contains a Group 11/[azoxystrobin] fungicide. Any fungal population may contain individuals naturally resistant to Heritage Fungicide and other Group 11 fungicides. A gradual or total loss of pest control may occur over time if these fungicides are used repeatedly in the same fields. Appropriate resistance management strategies should be followed.
To delay fungicide resistance, take one or more of the following steps:
• Rotate the use of Heritage Fungicide or other Group 11 fungicides within a growing season sequence with different groups that control the same pathogens. • Use tank mixtures with fungicides from a different group that are equally effective on the target pest when such use is permitted. Use at least the minimum application rate as labeled by the manufacturer. • Adopt an integrated disease management program for fungicide use that includes scouting, uses historical information related to pesticide use, and which considers host plant resistance, impact of environmental conditions on disease development, disease thresholds, as well as cultural, biological and other chemical control practices. • Where possible, make use of predictive disease models to effectively time fungicide applications. Note that using predictive models alone is not sufficient to manage resistance. • Monitor treated fungal populations for resistance development. • Contact your local Syngenta Representative, retailer, or extension specialist for any additional pesticide resistance-management and/or IPM recommendations for specific crops and pathogens. • For further information or to report suspected resistance contact Syngenta at 1-866- Syngent(a) (866-796-4368). You can also contact your pesticide distributor or university extension specialist to report resistance.
Since pathogens differ in their potential to develop fungicide resistance, use the resistance management strategies for each disease given in the SPECIFIC USE DIRECTIONS section in this label.
Syngenta Crop Protection encourages responsible resistance management to ensure effective long-term control of the fungal diseases on this label.
MIXING INSTRUCTIONS
To prepare spray solution, partially fill the spray tank with clean water and begin agitation. Add the specified amount of Heritage Fungicide to the tank, allowing adequate time for good mixing. Add an adjuvant if appropriate. Finish filling the tank to the desired volume to obtain the proper spray concentration. Maintain agitation throughout the spraying operation. DO NOT allow spray mixture to stand overnight or
Heritage Fungicide Page 13 for prolonged periods. Mix only the amount of spray required for your immediate use. Sprayers should be thoroughly cleaned immediately after application.
Heritage Fungicide is compatible with commonly used fungicides, liquid fertilizers, herbicides, insecticides and biological control products. If tank mixes are desired, products should be added to the spray tank in the following order: Heritage Fungicide, other WG or dry flowable formulations, wettable powders and flowable (aqueous suspension) products. Observe all directions, precautions, and limitations on labeling of all products used. Consult compatibility charts or your local or state agricultural or turf authorities for compatibility information.
Adjuvants: When an adjuvant is to be used with this product, use an adjuvant that meets the standards of the Chemical Producers and Distributors Association (CPDA) adjuvant certification program.
DO NOT mix Heritage Fungicide in the spray tank with pesticides, surfactants or fertilizers unless compatibility charts or your own prior use has shown that the combination is physically compatible, effective and non-injurious under your conditions of use. If physical compatibility is unknown, the following procedure should be followed: Pour the specified proportions of the products into a suitable container of water, mix thoroughly and allow it to stand at least 20 minutes. If the combination remains mixed or can be re-mixed readily, the mixture is considered physically compatible.
Heritage Fungicide is incompatible with many fertilizers when low water volumes are used for in-furrow applications. Cold temperatures and water quality exacerbate these compatibility problems. Conduct a physical compatibility test as described in the paragraph as above before making a field application.
NOTE: Heritage Fungicide has demonstrated some phytotoxic effects when mixed with products that are formulated as EC’s. These effects are enhanced if applications are made under cool, cloudy conditions and these conditions remain for several days following application. In addition, silicone-containing adjuvants have also contributed to phytotoxicity.
APPLICATION INSTRUCTIONS
Heritage Fungicide should be applied prior to disease development at the rates and timings given in this label. Apply at the higher rates in the rate range and/or shorter spray intervals under conditions of heavy infection pressure, on highly susceptible varieties or when environmental conditions are conducive for disease development. Use of Heritage Fungicide as a "rescue" (late curative or eradicant) treatment is not recommended and may not give satisfactory disease control.
Heritage Fungicide may be applied with various types of spray equipment commonly used for making ground and aerial applications. For ground applications, apply
Heritage Fungicide Page 14 Heritage Fungicide in a volume of water sufficient to provide good plant canopy penetration and coverage. For aerial applications, apply Heritage Fungicide in a minimum of two gallons of water per acre. Ground application is preferred as it typically provides better canopy penetration and coverage.
Proper adjustments and calibration of spraying equipment are essential for optimal disease control. If you have questions about calibration, contact a State Extension Service specialist, the equipment manufacturer or other experts.
Directions for Use through Sprinkler and Drip Chemigation Systems
Spray Preparation: Chemical tank and injector system should be thoroughly cleaned. Flush system with clean water.
Use Precautions for Sprinkler and Drip Irrigation Applications:
Drip and Micro Irrigation: Heritage Fungicide may be applied through drip and micro irrigation systems to potted ornamentals or to bedded, field-grown ornamentals for soil- borne disease control. The soil or potting media should have adequate moisture capacity prior to drip application.
Terminate drip irrigation at fungicide depletion from the main feed supply tank or after 6 hours from start, whichever is shorter. For maximum efficacy, subsequent irrigation (water only) should be delayed for at least for 24 hours following drip application.
Sprinkler Irrigation: Apply this product through sprinkler irrigation systems including center pivot, motorized boom, lateral move, end tow, side [wheel] roll, traveler, big gun, solid set, or hand move irrigation systems. Do not apply this product through any other type of irrigation system except as specified on this label.
Apply with center-pivot or continuous-move equipment distributing ½ acre-inch or less during treatment. In general, use the least amount of water required for proper distribution and coverage. If stationary systems (solid set, handlines or wheel lines other than continuous-move) are used, this product should be injected into no more than the last 20-30 minutes of the set. DO NOT apply when winds are greater than 10- 15 mph to avoid drift or wind skips. Plant injury, lack of effectiveness, or illegal pesticide residues in the crop can result from non-uniform treated water. Thorough coverage of foliage is required for good control. Good agitation should be maintained during the entire application period.
If you have questions about calibration, contact the State Extension Service specialist, equipment manufacturers or other experts.
• The system must contain a functional check valve, vacuum relief valve, and low pressure drain appropriately located on the irrigation pipeline to prevent water- source contamination from backflow.
Heritage Fungicide Page 15
• The pesticide injection pipeline must contain a functional, automatic, quick- closing check valve to prevent the flow of fluid back toward the injection pump.
• The pesticide injection pipeline must also contain a functional, normally closed, solenoid-operated valve located on the intake side of the injection pump and connected to the system interlock to prevent fluid from being withdrawn from the supply tank when the irrigation system is either automatically or manually shut down.
• The system must contain functional interlocking controls to automatically shut off the pesticide injection pump when the water pump motor stops.
• The irrigation line or water pump must include a functional pressure switch which will stop the water pump motor when the water pressure decreases to the point where pesticide distribution is adversely affected.
• Systems must use a metering pump, such as a positive displacement injection pump (e.g., diaphragm pump) effectively designed and constructed of materials that are compatible with pesticides and capable of being fitted with a system interlock.
Allow sufficient time for pesticide to be flushed through all lines and all nozzles before turning off irrigation water. A person knowledgeable of the chemigation system and responsible for its operation, or under the supervision of the responsible person, shall shut the system down and make necessary adjustments should the need arise.
DO NOT connect an irrigation system (including greenhouse systems) used for pesticide application to a public water system unless the pesticide label-prescribed safety devices for public water systems are in place.
Specific Instructions for Public Water Systems
-
Public water system means a system for the provision to the public of piped water for human consumption if such system has at least 15 service connections or regularly serves an average of at least 25 individuals daily at least 60 days out of the year.
-
Chemigation systems connected to public water systems must contain a functional, reduced-pressure zone, back-flow preventer (RPZ) or the functional equivalent in the water supply line upstream from the point of pesticide introduction. As an option to the RPZ, the water from the public water system should be discharged into a reservoir tank prior to pesticide introduction. There must be a complete physical break (air gap) between the outlet end of the fill pipe and the top or overflow rim of the reservoir tank of at least twice the inside diameter of the fill pipe.
Heritage Fungicide Page 16

The pesticide injection pipeline must contain a functional, automatic, quick-closing check valve to prevent the flow of fluid back toward the injection pump.
-
The pesticide injection pipeline must contain a functional, normally closed, solenoid-operated valve located on the intake side of the injection pump and connected to the system interlock to prevent fluid from being withdrawn from the supply tank when the irrigation system is either automatically or manually shut down.
-
The system must contain functional interlocking controls to automatically shut off the pesticide injection pump when the water pump motor stops, or in cases where there is no water pump, when the water pressure decreases to the point where pesticide distribution is adversely affected.
-
Systems must use a metering pump, such as a positive displacement injection pump (e.g., diaphragm pump) effectively designed and constructed of materials that are compatible with pesticides and capable of being fitted with a system interlock.
-
Do not apply when wind speed favors drift beyond the area intended for treatment.
Heritage Fungicide Page 17 DIRECTIONS FOR TURF
Heritage Fungicide controls the listed pathogens that cause foliar, stem, and root diseases, including leaf and stem blights, leaf spots, patch diseases, mildew, molds and rusts of turfgrass. Heritage Fungicide may be used on golf courses, lawns and landscape areas around residential, institutional, public, commercial and industrial buildings, parks, recreational areas, athletic fields, and sod farms.
Integrated Pest (Disease) Management (IPM)
Sound turf management resulting in healthy, vigorous turf is the foundation of a good IPM program. Cultural practices, such as proper choice of turf variety, nutrient management, proper cutting height, thatch management, and proper watering, drainage, and moisture stress management, should be integrated with the use of fungicides to increase turf vigor and reduce the susceptibility to disease. Immunoassay detection kits and extension service diagnostic services can assist in the early and accurate identification of causal organisms and corresponding selection of the proper fungicide when required.
Resistance Management
DO NOT spray more than two sequential Heritage Fungicide applications for Gray Leaf Spot or Pythium spp. control. For all other diseases when Gray Leaf Spot and Pythium spp. are not present, DO NOT spray more than three sequential applications of Heritage Fungicide.
Application Directions
Heritage Fungicide should be applied prior to disease development. Mix Heritage Fungicide with the required amount of water and apply as a dilute spray in 2-4 gallons of water per 1,000 square feet (87-174 gallons per acre).

Heritage Fungicide may be applied through a liquid fungicide injector for the control of ectrotrophic root diseases such as summer patch and take-all patch. Use Heritage Fungicide only in liquid injection equipment specifically designated for pesticide use.
Apply Heritage Fungicide at 0.2 to 0.4 oz per 1,000 sq ft. Spray carrier volume should fall within 30-150 gallons of water per 1,000 sq ft. Use an injection hole spacing of 1 inch by 1 inch for optimum control. Do not exceed injection depth of 2 inches. Use a one-inch depth for optimum results. Application timing should follow disease control strategies used for normal broadcast spray programs.
Application when Establishing Turfgrass from Seed or in Overseeding of Dormant Turfgrass
Heritage Fungicide may be used for control of certain turfgrass diseases associated with turfgrass establishment from seed or during overseeding of dormant turfgrass. Heritage Fungicide may be safely applied before or after seeding or at seedling germination and emergence to ryegrass, bentgrass, bluegrass (including Poa trivialis), and fescue turfgrass types. Optimum application timing is during seeding. See Application Directions section.
Dollar Spot: Heritage Fungicide does not control dollar spot. Mix Heritage Fungicide with another fungicide labeled for dollar spot control when environmental conditions are conducive for disease development. Heritage Fungicide is tank-mix compatible with many fungicides that control dollar spot.

DIRECTIONS FOR ORNAMENTALS
Heritage Fungicide controls listed pathogens that cause foliar, aerial, and root diseases, including: leaf, tip, and flower blights; leaf spots; downy mildew; powdery mildew; anthracnose; and rusts of ornamental plants. Heritage Fungicide may be used to control certain diseases of container, bench, flat, plug, bed, succulents or field-grown ornamentals in greenhouses, shade- and lath-houses, outdoor nurseries, retail nurseries, interiorscapes, and other landscape areas.
Integrated Pest (Disease) Management (IPM)
Heritage Fungicide should be integrated into an overall disease management strategy that includes selection of varieties with disease tolerance, optimum plant populations, proper fertilization, winter and/or spring pruning, plant debris management and proper timing and placement of irrigation. Immunoassay detection kits and diagnostic services can assist in the early and accurate identification of causal organisms and corresponding selection of the proper fungicide when required.
Resistance Management
DO NOT make more than three (3) sequential applications of Heritage Fungicide before alternating with a fungicide of a different mode of action. A sound resistance management program would include blocks of three Heritage Fungicide applications separated by blocks of two alternate fungicide applications. DO NOT alternate Heritage Fungicide with other strobilurin fungicides.
Application Directions
Apply Heritage Fungicide as a foliar or soil broadcast, drench, or banded spray targeted at the foliage or crown of the plant. Apply to the point of runoff to ensure complete coverage of the target plant. Good coverage and wetting of foliage is necessary for best control. Refer to the label for specific use directions for control of certain diseases. Repeat applications at specified intervals using an appropriate resistance management program.
Apply Heritage Fungicide at listed use rates. The addition of an adjuvant at the specified use rate may enhance coverage on hard-to-wet plant foliage. Under light to
Heritage Fungicide Page 22 moderate disease pressure, use the lower listed rates and shorter listed application interval. Under environmental conditions conducive to severe disease development, use the higher rates and shorter listed application interval. Use of Heritage Fungicide as a "rescue" (late curative or eradicant) treatment is not recommended and may not result in satisfactory disease control.
ORNAMENTALS USE RESTRICTIONS
DO NOT apply more than 0.75 lb ai/A for field-grown or nursery ornamentals by groundboom or chemigation.
For applications with handheld equipment to nursery ornamentals, broadcast application or landscaping (plants, flowers, trees and turf), DO NOT exceed 0.0025 lb ai/gal.
For application with handheld equipment to Christmas tree, DO NOT exceed 0.00125 lb ai/gal.
For application with mechanically pressurized handwand to greenhouse ornamentals, DO NOT exceed 0.0025 lb ai/gal.
DO NOT apply greater than 2 pints of solution per square foot for drench and crown applications.
DO NOT exceed 600 gallons spray volume per acre for foliar applications.
DO NOT tank-mix Heritage Fungicide with other fungicides, insecticides, herbicides, fertilizers, or adjuvants unless local experience indicates that the tank mix will not injure ornamental plants.
DO NOT apply Heritage Fungicide to apple or cherry trees (including flowering and ornamental varieties, such as Yoshino) due to possible phytotoxicity.
DO NOT use spray equipment that has applied Heritage Fungicide for use in these sensitive crops due to possible phytotoxicity from residue remaining in the sprayer.
DO NOT apply more than 10 lb of Heritage Fungicide/Acre (5 lb ai/Acre) per year to crops grown outdoors.
Drench Application
Heritage Fungicide may be applied to control soilborne, seedling, and crown diseases of ornamentals as a preventative drench treatment prior to infection. Good coverage of
Heritage Fungicide Page 23 the pre-infection area (root zone, root ball, and crown) is necessary for satisfactory control. Heritage Fungicide may be applied by drench to container-grown ornamentals. Make a drench application prior to infection as healthy roots are necessary to optimize product uptake and systemic translocation to optimize disease protection. Due to the systemic activity of Heritage Fungicide, suppression of certain foliar diseases has been observed in plants treated with drench applications.
Use caution before applying Heritage Fungicide as a drench to small bedding plants in the seedling/plug stage due to possible phytotoxicity. A limited quantity of plants should be tested prior to full-scale application.
Chemigation: Use through Sprinkler and Drip Irrigation Systems
Heritage Fungicide may be applied through sprinkler, drip, or other micro irrigation systems to potted ornamentals or to bedded, field-grown ornamentals for soil-borne disease control. Apply Heritage Fungicide as a preventative treatment. The soil or potting media should have adequate moisture capacity prior to drip application.
Terminate irrigation at fungicide depletion from the main feed supply tank or after 6 hours from start, whichever is shorter. For maximum efficacy, subsequent irrigation (water only) should be delayed for at least for 24 hours following application.
PHYTOTOXICITY Application of Heritage Fungicide to crabapple may cause phytotoxicity. Heritage Fungicide may be applied to specific tolerant varieties of crabapple. Heritage Fungicide has been shown to be safer when applied to the species and varieties listed in Table 12. Due to the large number of species, and varieties of crabapple, it is impossible to test every one for tolerance to Heritage Fungicide. The user should conduct small-scale testing to ensure plant safety prior to large-scale commercial use on plant species and varieties not listed on this label.
When used in accordance with the label directions, Heritage Fungicide will provide control of the diseases of ornamental plants in the following table.
