UNITED STATES ENVIRONMENTAL PROTECTION AGENCY WASHINGTON, D.C. 20460 OFFICE OF CHEMICAL SAFETY AND POLLUTION PREVENTION Ms. Luz G. Chan Drexel Chemical Company P.O. Box 13327 Memphis, TN 38113-0327 Subject: Label Amendment Revising Storage and Disposal Instructions Per PR Notice 2007-4 and Making Other Minor Changes Drexel LV 6 Weed Killer . EPA Reg. No. 19713-337 ocr -4 2)ID Your Submission Dated June 14,2010 (Submitted as Notification and Converted to Amendment by EPA on July 6, 2010) Dear Ms. Chan: The labeling referred to above, submitted in connection with registration under the Federal Insecticide, Fungicide, and Rodenticide Act (FIFRA), as amended, is acceptable, provided you make the following changes:

  1. Revise the PPE to clarify that chemical-resistant gloves are required for all handlers of the product. As currently written, users might think gloves are only required for exposures to the concentrated product. The revised PPE statement should read as follows: "All mixers, loaders, applicators, naggers, and other handlers must wear: Long­ sleeved shirt and long pants, shoes plus socks, and chemical-resistant gloves. A chemical-resistant apron is also required when mixing or loading, cleaning up spills or equipment, or otherwise exposed to the concentrate."
  2. In the second column on page 2 (4th paragraph), revise the sentence "Product should not be used in greenhouses" to read "Do not use this product in greenhouses."
  3. On page 4, under Established Pastures and Rangelands, delete the statement "Do not cut grass for hay for 30 days after treatment." This statement conflicts with restriction #5 for pastures and rangelands at the top of page 5 ("Do not cut forage for hay within 7 days of application."). The 7-day PHI is consistent with the requirements of the 2,4-D RED.
  4. On page 5, in the directions for use on Non-Cropland, reduce the maximum rate from 4 pints per acre to 2.6 pints per acre. The 4 pints per acre rate (3 lbs. a.e.! A) exceeds the 7

(' '-. Page 2 of2 EPA Reg. No. 19713-337 maximum use rate allowed by the 2,4-D RED. Note: The maximum rate is correctly specified as 2.6 pints/A in the Use Restrictions and Precautions for Non-Cropland. 5. On page 4, in the first column, in the statement which begins "Compatible crop oil concentrates, agricultural surfactants, ... ", change "effective" to "effectiveness" or . , "efficacy", so that the sentence reads "Compatible crop oil concentrates, ... may increase the herbicidal efficacy (or effectiveness) of2,4-D on certain weeds and may be added to the spray tank." 6. Correct application rate statements throughout the label which don't indicate the area covered by the specified amount of product. The incomplete rate statements include the following: • The rates for soybeans, currently given as "0.5 to 0.6 pint ... " or "0.6 to 1.3 pints ... " (depending on the days before planting) should be revised to read "0.5 to 0.6 pint per acre ... " and "0.6 to 1.3 pints per acre ... " • The rates for grass seed crops: "Apply 0.6 to 2.6 pints of this product ... " should read "Apply 0.6 to 2.6 pints of this product per acre ... ". "After the grass is well established, higher rates of up to 2.6 pints can be used ... " should read "After the grass is well established, higher rates of up to 2.6 pints per acre can be used ... " • Restriction #1 in the directions for use on non-cropland: Revise the second sentence to read "Do not apply more than 2lbs. ae (2.6 pints of this product) per acre per application. A stamped copy of your label is enclosed for your records. This label supersedes all previously accepted labels for the subject product. You must submit one (1) copy of the fmal printed label before you release the product for shipment. Products shipped after eighteen (18) months from the date of this letter or the next printing of the label, whichever occurs first, must bear the new, revised label. If these conditions are not complied with, the registration will be subject to cancellation in accordance with FIFRA §6(e). Your release for shipment of the product constitutes acceptance of these conditions. Enclosure v· Kathryn M ntague Product Manager 23 Herbicide Branch Registration Division (7505P) £. -7

ENVIRONMENTAL HAZARDS . This pesticide may be toxic to fish and aquatic invertebrates. Do not apply directly to water, 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 water adjacent to treated areas. Do not contaminate water when disposing of equipment wash waters or rinsate. This chemical has properties and characteristics associated with chemicals detected in groundwater. The use of this chemical in areas where soils are permeable, particularly where the water table is shal­ low, may result in groundwater contamination. Application around a cistern or well may result in contamination of drinking water or ground­ water. USe of this product in certain portions of California, Oregon and Wash­ ington is subject to the January 22, 2004 Order for injunctive relief in Washington Toxies Coalition, et. al. v. EPA, C01-0132C,(W.D. WA). Forfur­ ther information, please refer to EPA Web Site: http://www.epa.gov/espp. GROUND CONTAMINATION Most cases of groundwater contamination involving phenoxy herbi­ cides such as 2,4-0 have been aS,sociated with mixing/loading and disposal sites. Caution should be exercised when handling 2,4-0 pes­ ticides at such sites to prevent contamination of groundwater supplies. Use of closed systems for mixing or transferring this pesticide will re­ duce the probability of spills. Placement of the mixing/loading eqUip­ ment on an impervious pad to contain spills will help prevent groundwater contamination. DIRECTIONS FOR USE It is a violation of Federal law to use this product in a manner incon­ sistent with its labeling. Do not apply this product through any type of irrigation system. For any requirements specific to your State or Tribe, consult the agency responsible for pesticide regulation. Do not apply this product in a way that will contact workers or other persons, ei­ ther directly or through drift. Only protected handlers may be in the area during application. AGRICULTURAL USE REQUIREMENTS Use this product only in accordance with its labeling and with the . Worker Protection Standard, 40 CFR Part 170. This standard con­ tains requirements for the protection of agricultural workers on farms, forests, nurseries, greenhouses and handlers of agricultural pesticides. It contains requirements for training, decontamination, notification and emergency assistance. It also contains specific in­ structions and exceptions pertaining to the statements on this label about person protective equipment (PPE), and restricted entry in­ terval. The requirements in this box only apply to uses of this prod­ uct that are covered by the Worker Protection Standard. Do not enter or allow worker entry into treated areas during the re­ stricted entry interval (REI) of 12 ho.urs. PPE required for early entty to treated areas that is permitted under the Worker Protection Standard and that involves contact with any­ thing that has been treated, such as plants, soil, or water is: Cover­ alls, chemical-resistant gloves made of any waterproof material, and shoes plus socks. NON-AGRICULTURAL USE REQUIREMENTS The requirements in this box apply to uses of this product that are NOT within the scope of the Worker Protection Standard for agri­ cultural pesticides (40 CFR Part 170). The WPS applies when this product is used to produce agricultural plants on farms, forests, nurseries or greenhouses. For use on residential and other turf (ex­ cluding sod farms), do not allow people (other than applicator) or pets on treatment area during application. Do not allow people or pets to enter treated area until sprays have dried. USE INFORMATION Performance of this product may be affected by local conditions, crop varieties and application method. User should consult local extension service. agricultural experiment or university weed specialists and state regulatory agencies for recommendations in your area. Best results are obtained when product is applied to young succulent weeds that are actively growing. Application rates lower than labeled rates will be satisfactory on susceptible annual weeds. For perennial weeds and conditions such as the very dry areas of the Western states, where control is difficult, the higher labeled rates should be used. When product is used for weed control in crops, the growth stage of the crop must be considered. Some plants and weedsCeCiallY woody varieties, are difficult to control and may require repeat applications. Application rates should be 1 to 5 gallons of total spray by air or 5 to 25 gallons by ground equipment unless otherwise directed. In either case, use the same amount of 2,4-0 directed per acre. Aerial application should be used only when there is no danger of drift to susceptible crops. Many states have regulations conceming aerial application of 2,4-0 formulations. Consult local regulatory authorities before making applications. Although this product is a low volatile for­ mUlation, at temperatures above 95°F vapor may damage susceptible crops grow­ ing nearby. Refer to "Spray Drift Management" section on this label. Because coarse sprays are less likely to drift than fine, do not use equipment (such as hollow cone small orifice nozzles) or conditions (such as high pressure) that produce such sprays. Product should not be allowed to come into contact with desirable sus­ ceptible plants such as beans, cotton, fruit trees, grapes, legumes, or­ namentals, peas, tomatoes and other vegetables. Product should not be used in greenhouses. Excessive amounts ofthis product in the soil may temporarily inhibit seed germination and all plant growth. '. Users should note that herbicide treatment of public water require a permit from appropriate state agencies in most states. Your State Con­ servation Department or Game and Fish Commission will aid you se­ curing a permit in your state. If stored below freezing, it may be necessary to warm product to 40'F and agitate before using. This does not affect the efficiency of the product. Spray equipment used to apply 2,4-0 should not be used for any other purpose until thoroughly cleaned with a suitable chemical cleaner. SPRAY DRIFT MANAGEMENT A variety of factors including weather conditions (e.g., wind direction, wind speed, temperature, relative humidity) and method of application (e.g., ground, aerial, airblast, chemigation) can influence pesticide drift. The applicator must evaluate all factors and make appropriate adjust­ ments when applying this product. Droplet Size: When applying sprays that contain 2,4-0 as the sole active ingredi­ ent, or when applying sprays that contain 2,4-0 mixed with active in­ gredients that require a Coarse or coarser spray, apply only as a Coarse or coarser spray (ASAE standard 572) or a volume mean di­ ameter of 385 microns or greater for spinning atmozier nozzles. When applying sprays that contain 2,4-0 mixed with other active in­ gredients that require a Medium or more fine spray, apply only as a Medium or coarser spray (ASAE standard 572) or a volume mean di­ ameter of 300 microns or greater for spinning atomizer nozzles. Wind Speed: Do not apply at wind speeds greater than 15 mph. Only apply this product if the wind direction favors on-target deposition and there are not sensitive areas (including, but not limited to, residential areas, bod­ ies of water, known habitat for nontarget species, nontarget crops) within 250 feet downwind. If applying a Medium spray, leave one swath unsprayed at the downwind edge of the treated field. Temperature Inversions: If applying at wind speeds less than 3 mph, the applicator must de­ termine if: a) conditions of temperature inversion exist, or b) stable at­ mospheriC conditions exist at or below nozzle height. Do not make applications into areas of temperature inversions or stable atmospheric conditions. Susceptible Plants: Do not apply under circumstances where spray drift may occur to food, forage, or other plantings that might be damaged or crops thereof ren­ dered unfit for sale, use, or consumption. Susceptible crops include, but are not limited to, cotton, okra, flowers, grapes (in growing stage), fruit trees (foliage), soybeans (vegetative stage), orn9ri,e(lal~ sun­ flowers, tomatoes, beans, and other (en(ltqhlf,s, or toha-.:co.

safety. Do not release spray at a height grey'--- 'han 10 feet above the crop canopy unless a greater height is requk_. ,'or aircraft safety. This re,quirement does not apply to forestry or rights-of-way applications. When applications are made with a crosswind, the swath will be dis­ placed downwind. The applicator must compensate for this by adjust­ ing the path of the aircraft upwind. Additional requirements for ground boom application: Do not apply with a nozzle height greater than 4 feet above the crop canopy. Additional requirements for this product: 2,4-0 esters may volatize during conditions of low humidity and high temperatures. Do not apply during conditions of low humidity and high temperatures. MIXING INSTRUCTIONS Spray Preparation: Add the directed amount of product to approxi­ mately one-half the volume of water to be used for spraying. Agitate . well, then add the remainder of the water. Continue agitation during ap­ plication until spray tank is empty. Tank Mixture with Liquid Nitrogen Fertilizer: This product may be combined with liquid nitrogen fertilizer suitable for foliar application on corn, grass, pastures or small grains in one operation. Use this prod­ uct according to directions on this label for those crops. Use liquid fer­ tilizer at rates recommended by supplier or extension service specialist. Mix this product and fertilizer according to the following instructions: Fill the spray tank approximately one-half full with the liquid fertilizer. Add this product while agitating the tank. Add the remainder of the liquid fer­ tilizer while continuing to agitate. Apply immediately maintaining agi­ tation during application until tank is empty. DO NOT APPLY DURING COLD (NEAR FREEZING) WEATHER. Spray mixture must be used immediately and may not be stored. WEEDS CONTROLLED This product is used to control broad leaved weeds in cereal crops, corn, sorghum, weeds and brush in rangeland, pastures, rights-of-way, similar non-crop uses. This product will kill or control the following in addition to many other noxious plants susceptible to 2,4-0: A1lig;;ltorweed Duckweed Povertyweed Arrow head Elderberry Puncturevine Artichoke Goldenrod Purslane Bindweed (hedge, field, Ground ivy Rush and European) Hemp Russian thistle Bitter wintercress Hoary cress Sagebrush Boxelder Honeysuckle Shephardspurse Buckhorn Indigo Smartweed Bull thistle Ironweed Sowthistle Bulrush Jimson weed Stinkweed Burdock Lambsquarters Sumac Burragweed Locoweed Sunflower Buttercup Mexican weed Virginia creeper Catnip Morningglory Waterhyacinth Chickweed Mustard Waterlilly Chicory Nutgrass Waterprimrose Cocklebur Parrotfeather Wild garlic Coffeebean Pennywort Wild lettuce Creeping jenny Pigweed' Wild onion Curly indigo Plaintain Wild radish Dandelion Poison Ivy Willow Dock Pokeweed • The control of "hybrid" Pigweeds appears to be less satisfactory from 2,4- o products than formerly experienced on "non-hybrid" varieties. Since 2,4-0 herbicides are not as effective on the "hybrid" Pigweeds, it is necessary to apply higher rates of 2,4-0 for control, especially later in the growing season. Higher rates injure some crops, so less than satisfactory Pigweed control may be experienced by the highest tolerated crop dosage. CROPS SMALL GRAINS NOT UNDERSEEDED WITH LEGUMES (barley, oats, wheat, rye): See the following table for use rates. Spray when weeds are small after grain begins tillering but before boot stage (usually 4 to 8 inches tall). To control larger weeds that will interfere with harvest or to sup­ press perennial weeds, preharvest treatment can be applied when the grain is in the dough stage. Be'st results will be obtained when soil moisture is adequate for plant growth and weeds are growing well. Use Restrictions and Precautions:

  1. Do not apply before the tiller stage nor from early boot through milk

stage. (. 2. Limit to one postemerg,--._~ application per crop cycle. Do not apply more than 1.25 Ibs. ae (1.6 pints of this product) per acre per ap­ plication. 3. Limit to one preharvest application per crop cycle. Do not apply more than 0.51b ae (0.6 pints of this product) per acre per applica­ tion. 4. Limit to 1.75 Ibs. ae (2.3 pints of this product) per acre per crop cycle. 5. The preharvest interval (PHI) is 14 days. Spring Planted Oats: Use 0.3 pint per acre in sufficient water to give good coverage. Apply after the fully tiIIered stage, except during the boot to dough stage. Fall Planted Oats: Apply 0.2 to 1.8 pints per acre after full tillering but before early boot stage. Some difficult weeds may require higher rates of 0.5 to 0.8 pints per acre for maximum control, but crop injury may result. Do not spray during or immediately following cold weather . Note: Oats are less tolerant to 2,4-0 than wheat or barley and more likely to be injured. Do not forage or graze treated grain fields within 2 weeks after treatment with 2,4-0. Do not feed treated straw to live­ stock. CORN (Field, Pop, Sweet): See the following table for use rates. Use Restrictions and Precautions:

  1. Limit to one preplant or pre emergence application per crop cycle. Do not apply more than 1 lb. ae (1.3 pints of this product) per acre per application.
  2. Limit to one postemergence application per crop cycle. Do not apply more than 0.5 lb. ae (0.6 pint of this product) per acre per applica­ tion.
  3. For Field and Pop corn, limit to one preharvest application per crop cycle. Do not apply more than 1.5 Ibs. ae (2 pints of this product) per acre per application. Do not apply more than 3lbs. ae (4 pints of this product) per acre per crop cycle.
  4. For Sweet corn, do not apply more than 1.5 Ibs. ae (2 pints of this product) per acre per crop cycle. Do not apply less than 21 days between applications.
  5. The preharvest interval (PHI) is 7 days for Field and Pop corn. For Sweet corn, the PHI is 45 days.
  6. Do not use treated crop as fodder for 7 days following application. Preemergence: Apply this product from 3 to 5 days after planting but before corn emerges. Do not use on very light, sandy soils. Use the higher rates on heavy soils. Plant corn as deep as practical. Postemergence: Best results are usually obtained when weeds are small and corn is 4 to 18 inches tall. When corn is over 8 inches tall, use drop nozzles. Do not apply from tasseling to dough stage. If corn is growing rapidly and temperature and soil moisture content is high, use 0.33 pint per acre rate to reduce possibility of crop damage. Delay CUltivation for 8 to 10 days to prevent stalk breakage due to temporary brittleness caused by 2,4-0. Application rates of up to 0.66 pint per acre may be used to control some hard to kill weeds. However, the possibility of injury to corn is increased. If corn is over 8 inches tall, use drop nozzles to keep spray off corn fo­ liage as much as possible. Do not use with oil, atrazine, or other ad­ juvants. Since the tolerance to 2,4-0 of individual hybrids varies, consult your Local Extension Service or Agricultural Experiment Sta­ tion or University Weed Specialist for information. Preharvest: After the hard dough or denting stage, apply 0.66 to 1.25 pints per acre of this product by air or ground equipment to suppress perennial weeds, decrease weed seed production and control tall weeds such as bindweed, cocklebur, dogbane, jimsonweed, ragweed, sunflower, velvetleaf and vines that interfere with haf!'3Mng.

After applying, plant Soybean seed as deep as practical or at least 1.5 to 2 inches deep. Adjust the planter press wheel, if nec­ essary, to ensure that planted seed is completely covered. If desired, this product may be applied preplant to Soybeans in tank mixtures with other herbicides that are registered for preplant Soybean use. Compatible crop oil concentrates, agricultural surfactants, and fluid fertilizers approved for use on growing crops may increase the herbi­ cidal effective of 2,4-0 on certain weeds and may be added to the spray tank. Read and follow all directions and precautions on this label and on all labels of adjuvants or fertilizers mixed with this product. Note: Unacceptable injury to Soybeans planted in treated fields may occur. Whether or not Soybean injury occurs and the extent of the in­ jury will depend on weather (temperature and rainfall) from herbicide application until soybean emergence and agronomic factors such as the amount of weed vegetation and previous crop residue present. In­ jury is more likely under cool, rainy conditions and where there is less weed vegetation and crop residue present. Use Restrictions and Precautions: Do not apply this product prior to planting Soybeans if you r' '.ot prepared to accept the results of Soy- .k.. bean injury, including pos>.._.e loss of stand and yield. Do not use on 7 low organic sqndy soils (less than 1.0%). Do not apply this product when weather conditions such as temperature, air inversions or wind favor drift from treated areas to susceptible plants. Do not mow or CUl- tivate weeds prior to treating with this product as poor control may re- sult. Do not use any tillage operations between application and planting. Do not feed treated hay, forage or fodder. Restrict livestock from grazing treated. fields. Do not feed or graze treated cover crops to livestock. Only two split applications or only one application may be made prior to planting Soybeans per crop cycle. Do not replant fields treated with this product in the same growing season with crops other than those labeled for 2,4-0 use. Additional Use Restrictions and Precautions:

  1. The maximum rate per crop cycle is 1 lb. ae (1.3 pints of this prod­ uct) per acre.
  2. Limit to 2 preplant split applications per crop cycle. Do not apply more than 0.5 lb. ae (0.6 pints of this product) per acre per preplant application.
