1. Add the following aquatic use restriction to the mosquito larvae control directions. As described in the 1988 Malathion Reregistration Standard, footnote numbers 164 and 165 of the Residue Chemistry Generic Data Requirement Table (page 114), these restrictions are being required in lieu of conducting residue chemistry studies under 171-4 (Magnitude of the Residue in Fish and Shellfish and Magnitude of the Residue in Drinking and Irrigation Water) . "Broadcast use only over intermittently flooded areas. Application may not be made around bodies of water where fish or shellfish are grown and/or harvested commercially."
2. Add a statement prohibiting the grazing or feeding of the treated crop foliage by livestock for the crops, beans, and peas (vines/forage and straw/hay) .
3. Correct the "If swallowed:" statement of practical treatment to read as follows so that it reflects the aspiration hazard associated with the product. .' "If swallowed: Drink promptly a large quantity of milk, egg whites, or gelatin solution, or, if these are not available, ~ Printed on Recycled Paper

) large quantities of water. Avoid alcohol. Do not induce vomiting as it may cause aspiration pneumonia." 4. Delete the restriction, "Do not use treated seed for food, feed, or oil purposes." The seed treatment uses have been deleted from the label. 5. Clarify the use sites covered by the indoor use precautionary statements appearing in the human precautionary statements by specifying that the only indoor use on the submitted label is for the listed empty grain storage facilities. Malathion is not being supported for general indoor use. 6. Under the directions for fly contrel, specify outdoor use only and delete the use on stanchions. 7. Verify that the chemigation suppleental labeling referenced on the submitted labeling is the same chemigation supplemental labeling accepted for e proict on March 28, 1989.
