Image rebuild (skip scrape) / build (push) Failing after 1h37m12s
Dockerfile: self-contained image with corpus + Chroma + BM25 baked in. Drawbar's compose pulls + runs without volume mounts. Built from sources.json (labels schema), PRODUCT_NAME=crop_chem by default, HYBRID_SEARCH=true (always-on for production quality). RERANK_URL + OLLAMA_URL get set at compose time. .gitea/workflows/refresh.yml: monthly cron (1st @ 06:00 UTC) does full scrape → reindex → image push. Scrapes Bayer (~30 min) + EPA PPLS row-crop filtered (~7h). Skips reindex+push if no corpus diff. Tags pushed: :latest, :<sha12>, :corpus-<YYYY.MM.DD>. .gitea/workflows/image-only.yml: on-demand or auto on code-only pushes to main (paths: docs_mcp/, rag/, scrape/, requirements.txt, Dockerfile, sources.json). Reindexes from committed corpus, builds image, pushes. ~10 min vs ~9h full refresh. .gitignore: corpus/ now COMMITTED (4,159 labels, 265 MB of .md + sidecars). Lets image-only.yml rebuild indexes without re-scraping. chroma/ + bm25/ still gitignored (regenerable binary indexes). .dockerignore: drops venv, eval results, PLAN/README/CLAUDE.md, deploy/, .git/ — keeps the image lean. corpus + chroma + bm25 explicitly NOT in dockerignore (those go INTO the image).

Dear Lindsay Demers:
|
||
|
||
The Agency is in receipt of your Application for Pesticide Notification under Pesticide
|
||
Registration Notice (PRN) 98-10 for the above referenced product. The Registration Division
|
||
(RD) has conducted a review of this request for its applicability under PRN 98-10 and finds that
|
||
the action requested falls within the scope of PRN 98-10.
|
||
|
||
The label submitted with the application has been stamped “NOTIFICATION” and placed in our
|
||
records.
|
||
|
||
Should you wish to add/retain a reference to the company’s website on your label, then please
|
||
be aware that the website becomes labeling under the Federal Insecticide, Fungicide, and
|
||
Rodenticide Act (FIFRA) and is subject to review by the Agency. If the website is false or
|
||
misleading, the product would be misbranded and unlawful to sell or distribute under FIFRA
|
||
section 12(a)(1)(E). 40 CFR § 156.10(a)(5) lists examples of statements EPA may consider false
|
||
or misleading. In addition, regardless of whether a website is referenced on your product’s
|
||
label, claims made on the website may not substantially differ from those claims approved
|
||
through the registration process. Therefore, should the Agency find or if it is brought to our
|
||
attention that a website contains false or misleading statements or claims substantially
|
||
differing from the EPA approved registration, the website will be referred to the EPA’s Office of
|
||

PRECAUTIONARY STATEMENTS
|
||
HAZARDS TO HUMANS AND DOMESTIC ANIMALS
|
||
|
||
DANGER Corrosive. Causes irreversible eye damage. Harmful if swallowed. Do not get in eyes or on
|
||
clothing.
|
||
|
||
PERSONAL PROTECTIVE EQUIPMENT (PPE)
|
||
|
||
All mixers, loaders, applicators, flaggers, and other handlers must wear:
|
||
Long-sleeved shirt and long pants,
|
||
Shoes and socks,
|
||
Protective eyewear,
|
||
Chemical resistant gloves made of barrier laminate, nitrile rubber, neoprene rubber, or viton, >
|
||
14 mils, when applying, applying with any handheld nozzle or equipment, mixing or loading,
|
||
cleaning up spills or equipment, or otherwise exposed to the concentrate,
|
||
Chemical resistant apron when mixing or loading, cleaning up spills or equipment, or otherwise
|
||
exposed to the concentrate.
|
||
|
||
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.
|
||
See engineering controls for additional requirements.
|
||
Engineering controls statements: Enclosed Cockpits: Pilots must use an enclosed cockpit that
|
||
meets the requirements listed in the WPS for agricultural pesticides [40 CFR 170.240(d)(6)]. When
|
||
handlers use enclosed cabs or aircraft in a manner that meets with requirements listed in the Worker
|
||
Protection Standard (WPS) for agricultural pesticides [40 CFR 170.240 (d)(5-6)], the handler PPE
|
||
requirements may be reduced or modified as specified in the WPS.
|
||
|
||
USER SAFETY RECOMMENDATIONS
|
||
Users should:
|
||
Wash hands thoroughly after handling and before eating, drinking, chewing gum, using tobacco,
|
||
or using the toilet.
|
||
Remove clothing/PPE immediately if pesticide gets inside. Then wash thoroughly and put on
|
||
clean clothing. If pesticide gets on skin, wash immediately with soap and water.
|
||
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 fish and aquatic invertebrates.
|
||
For terrestrial uses: 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
|
||
shallow, may result in groundwater contamination. Application around a cistern or well may result in
|
||
contamination of drinking water or groundwater.
|
||
|
||
8/5/2025 Page 5 EXP8/17
|
||
|
||
Aquatic Weed Control: Fish breathe dissolved oxygen in the water and decaying weeds also use
|
||
oxygen. When treating continuous, dense weed masses, it may be appropriate to treat only part of the
|
||
infestation at a time. For example, apply the product in lanes separated by untreated strips that can be
|
||
treated after vegetation in treated lanes has disintegrated. During the growing season, weeds
|
||
decompose in a 2 to 3 week period following treatment. Begin treatment along the shore and proceed
|
||
outwards in bands to allow fish to move into untreated areas. Waters having limited and less dense
|
||
weed infestations may not require partial treatments.
|
||
|
||
Groundwater Contamination:
|
||
Most cases of groundwater contamination involving phenoxy herbicides such as 2,4-D have been
|
||
associated with mixing/loading and disposal sites. Caution should be exercised when handling 2,4-D
|
||
pesticides at such sites to prevent contamination of groundwater supplies. Use of closed systems for
|
||
mixing or transferring this pesticide will reduce the probability of spills. Placement of the mixing/loading
|
||
equipment on an impervious pad to contain spills will help prevent groundwater contamination. Do not
|
||
use the same spray equipment for other purposes unless thoroughly cleaned. Do not use in or near a
|
||
greenhouse. Do not contaminate water used for irrigation or domestic purposes (except as specified on
|
||
this label) especially in areas where susceptible plants are grown. Do not treat irrigation ditches in areas
|
||
where water will be used to overhead (sprinkler) irrigate susceptible crops.
|
||
Large amounts of 2,4-D in the soil may temporarily inhibit seed germination. Do not use in any manner
|
||
other than specified on the label to avoid possible crop injury or residues at harvest.
|
||
DIRECTIONS FOR USE
|
||
It is a violation of Federal law to use this product in a manner inconsistent with its labeling.

|
||
regulation.
|
||

SPRAY PREPARATIONS
|
||
Mix this product only with water to obtain adequate coverage, unless otherwise directed on this label.
|
||
|
||
8/5/2025 Page 7 EXP8/17
|
||
• Add about half of the water to the mixing tank.
|
||
• Begin tank agitation.
|
||
• Add product.
|
||
• Add remaining water, continuing to agitate.
|
||
Note: Adding oil, wetting agent, or other surfactant to the spray may increase effectiveness on weeds,
|
||
but also may reduce selectivity to crops, resulting in crop damage. When an adjuvant is to be used with
|
||
this product, Loveland Products, Inc. recommends using LI 700®. For drift control and defoaming, the
|
||
use of Compadre® at 0.125% v/v is recommended.
|
||
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 adjustments when applying this
|
||
product.
|
||
|
||
Droplet Size
|
||
When applying sprays that contain 2,4-D as the sole active ingredient, or when applying sprays that
|
||
contain 2,4-D mixed with active ingredients that require a coarse or coarser spray, apply only as a
|
||
coarse or coarser spray (ASABE standard 572) or a volume mean diameter of 385 microns or greater
|
||
for spinning atomizer nozzles.
|
||
|
||
When applying sprays that contain 2,4-D mixed with other active ingredients that require a medium or
|
||
more fine spray, apply only as a medium or coarser spray (ASABE standard 572) or a volume mean
|
||
diameter 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,
|
||
bodies 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 determine if: a) conditions of tem-
|
||
perature inversion exist, or b) stable atmospheric 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 rendered 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), ornamentals, sunflowers, tomatoes, beans, and other vegetables, or
|
||
tobacco. Small amounts of spray drift that might not be visible may injure susceptible broadleaf plants.
|
||
|
||
Other State and Local Requirements
|
||
Applicators must follow all state and local pesticide drift requirements regarding application of
|
||
2,4-D herbicides. Where states have more stringent regulations, they must be observed.
|
||
|
||
Equipment
|
||
All aerial and ground application equipment must be properly maintained and calibrated using
|
||
appropriate carriers or surrogates. The boom length must not exceed 75% of the wingspan or 90% of
|
||
the rotor blade diameter. Release spray at the lowest height consistent with efficacy and flight safety.
|
||
|
||
8/5/2025 Page 8 EXP8/17
|
||
Do not release spray at a height greater than 10 feet above the crop canopy unless a greater height is
|
||
required for aircraft safety. This requirement does not apply to forestry or rights-of-way applications.
|
||
When applications are made with a crosswind, the swath will be displaced downwind. The applicator
|
||
must compensate for this by adjusting the path of the aircraft upwind. For ground boom application: Do
|
||
not apply with a nozzle height greater than 4 feet above the crop canopy.

|
||
APPLICATION PROCEDURES
|
||
Generally, the lower dosages given will be satisfactory for young, succulent growth of sensitive weed
|
||
species. For less sensitive species and under conditions where control is more difficult, the higher
|
||
dosages will be needed. Apply this product during warm weather when weeds are young and growing
|
||
actively. Apply a minimum of 2 gallons of spray solution per acre by air or a minimum of 5 gallons of
|
||
spray solution per acre by ground unless directed otherwise.
|
||
|
||
PLANTING IN TREATED AREAS
|
||
Labeled Crops: Crops listed as use sites on this or other registered 2,4-D labels may be planted within
|
||
29 days of application of this product. Follow more specific limitations (if listed) provided in the
|
||
directions for individual crops. Labeled crops may be at risk for crop injury or loss when planted soon
|
||
after application, especially in the first 14 days. Degradation factors described below should be
|
||
considered in weighing this risk.
|
||
|
||
Other Crops: All other crops may be planted 30 or more days following an application without concern
|
||
for illegal residues in the planted crop. However, under certain conditions, there may be a risk of injury
|
||
to susceptible crops. Degradation factors described below should be considered in weighing this risk.
|
||
Under normal conditions, any crop may be planted without risk of injury if at least 90 days of soil
|
||
temperatures above freezing have elapsed since application.
|
||
|
||
Degradation factors: When planting into treated areas, the risk of crop injury is less if lower rates of
|
||
product were applied and conditions following application have included warm, moist soil conditions
|
||
that favor rapid degradation of 2,4-D. Risk is greater if higher rates of product were applied and soil
|
||
temperatures have been cold and/or soils have been excessively wet or dry in the days following
|
||
application. Consult your local Agricultural Extension Service for information about susceptible crops
|
||
and typical soil conditions in your area.

|
||
WEED RESISTANCE MANAGEMENT
|
||
The active ingredient in this product is 2,4-D, which is a synthetic auxin (Group 4) disrupting plant cell
|
||
growth in newly forming stems and leaves. A given weed population may contain or develop resistance
|
||
to an herbicide after repeated use. Appropriate resistance-management strategies should be followed
|
||
to mitigate or delay resistance. If levels of control provided by applications of this product is reduced,
|
||
and cannot be accounted for by factors such as misapplication, abnormal levels of target species or
|
||
extremes of weather, it may be the case that target species have developed a strain resistant to
|
||
applications of this product. Contact your local extension agent, crop advisor, or sales representative to
|
||
find out if suspected resistant weeds have been found in your region.
|
||
|
||
Suspected herbicide-resistant weeds may be identified by these indicators:
|
||
Failure to control a weed species normally controlled by the herbicide at the dose applied,
|
||
especially if control is achieved on adjacent weeds;
|
||
A spreading patch of non-controlled plants of a particular weed species; and
|
||
Surviving plants mixed with controlled individuals of the same species.
|
||
|
||
If resistance develops, this product may not provide sufficient control of target species. Where you
|
||
suspect target species are developing resistance, contact State/local agricultural advisors. Integrated
|
||
weed management guidelines promote an economically viable, environmentally sustainable, and
|
||
socially acceptable weed control program regardless of the herbicide(s) used. The highlights of
|
||
successful integrated weed management include:
|
||
|
||
1. Correctly identify weeds and look for trouble areas within field to identify resistance indicators.
|
||
2. Rotate crops.
|
||
3. Start the growing season with clean fields.
|
||
4. Rotate herbicide modes of action by using multiple modes of action during the growing season
|
||
and apply no more than 2 applications of a single herbicide mode of action to the same field in a
|
||
2-year period. One method to accomplish this is to rotate herbicide tolerant trait systems.
|
||
5. Apply listed rates of herbicides to actively growing weeds at the correct time with the right
|
||
application techniques.
|
||
6. Control any weeds that may have escaped the herbicide application.
|
||
7. Thoroughly clean field equipment between fields.
|
||
8. Scout before and after application.
|
||
|
||
Contact your local agronomic advisor for more specific information on integrated weed management for
|
||
your area. Users should report lack of performance to registrant or their representative. For mixtures
|
||
including this herbicide, note that each listed weed may not be controlled by multiple mechanisms of
|
||
action. Refer to crop specific directions (below) for maximum application rates and number of
|
||
applications.

|
||
irrigate and/or mix sprays for these sites at anytime after the 2,4-D aquatic application.
|
||
B. Floating and Emergent Weeds: Due to potential phytotoxicity considerations, the following
|
||
restrictions are applicable: If treated water is intended to be used to irrigate or mix sprays for
|
||
plants grown in commercial nurseries and greenhouses; and other plants or crops that are not
|
||
labeled for direct treatment with 2,4-D, the water must not be used unless one of the following
|
||
restrictions has been observed:
|
||
i. A setback distance from functional water intake(s) of greater than or equal to 600 ft was
|
||
used for the application, or,
