|
||
the concentrate.
|
||
See Engineering Controls for additional 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. After each day of use,
|
||
clothing or PPE must not be reused until it has been cleaned.
|
||
ENGINEERING CONTROLS
|
||
When handlers use enclosed cabs or aircraft in a manner that meets the requirements listed in the Worker
|
||
Protection Standard (WPS) for agricultura l pesticides [40 CFR 170.240(d)(4- 6)], the handler PPE
|
||
requirements may be reduced or modified as specified in the WPS.
|
||
Pilots must use an enclosed cockpit that meets the requirements listed in the WPS for agricultural pesticides
|
||
[40 CFR 170.240(d)(6)].
|
||
USER SAFETY RECOMMENDATIONS
|
||
Users should: 1) Wash hands thoroughly before eating, drinking, chewing gum, using tobacco, or using
|
||
the toilet. 2) Remove clothing/PPE immediately if pest icide gets inside. Then wash thoroughly and put on
|
||
clean clothing. If pesticide gets on skin, wash immediately with soap and water. 3) 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 aqua tic invertebrates. For terrestrial uses, do not apply directly to water, to
|
||
areas where surface water is present or to intertida l areas below the mean high water mark. Drift and runoff
|
||
may be hazardous to aquatic organisms in water adjacent to treated areas and nontarget plants. Do not
|
||
contaminate water when disposing of equipment washwaters 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. Applicatio n around a cistern or well may result in contamination of drinking
|
||
water or groundwater.
|
||
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.
|
||
Do not contaminate water used for irrigation or domestic purposes (except as directed on this label) especially
|
||
in areas where Cotton, Grapes, Tomatoes or other susceptible plants are grown.
|
||
Do not treat irrigation ditches in areas where water will be used to overhead (sprinkler) irrigate susceptible
|
||
crops especially Cotton, Grapes, Tobacco and Tomatoes.
|
||
Do not apply this product directly to , or permit to drift onto Cotton, Flowers, Fruit trees, Grapes, Okra,
|
||
Tomatoes, Vegetables or other desirable plants which are susceptible to 2,4-D. Do not apply near susceptible
|
||
plants since very small quantities of 2,4-D will cause severe injury during the growing or dormant periods.
|
||
Crops contacted by sprays or spray drift of this product may be killed or suffer significant stand loss with
|
||
extensive quality and yield reduction.
|
||
Mixing and Loading: Most cases of groundwater contamination involving phenoxy herbicides such as 2,4-D
|
||
have been associated with mixing/loading and dispos al sites. Exercise precautions when handling 2,4-D
|
||
pesticides at such sites to prevent contamination of ground water 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.

|
||
WEED RESISTANCE MANAGEMENT
|
||
2,4-D GROUP 4 HERBICIDE
|
||
For resistance management, this product is a Group 4 mode of action herbicide. Any weed population may
|
||
contain or develop plants naturally resistant to this product and other Group 4 mode of action herbicides. The
|
||
resistant biotypes may dominate the weed population if these herbicides are used repeatedly in the same
|
||
field. Appropriate resistance management strategies should be followed.
|
||
To delay herbicide resistance, take one or more of the following steps:
|
||
xRotate the use of this product or other Group 4 herbicides within a growing season sequence or among
|
||
growing seasons with different herbicide groups that control the same weeds in a field.
|
||
xUse tank-mixtures with herbicides from a different gro up 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 resi stance-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.
|
||
xAdopt 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-compet itive crops or varieties) and other management
|
||
practices.
|
||
xScout after herbicide application to monitor weed popu lations 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 sp ecies; (3) surviving plants mixed with controlled
|
||
individuals of the same species. If resistance is suspec ted, 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 other fields by cleaning harvesting and tillage equipment
|
||
when moving between fields, and planting clean seed.
|
||
xIf a weed pest population continues to progress after tr eatment with this product, discontinue use of this
|
||
product, and switch to another management strategy or herbicide with a different mode of action, if available.
|
||
xContact 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.
|
||
xFor further information or to report suspected resistance, contact Drexel Chemical Company representatives
|
||
at (901) 774-4370.

|
||
USE INFORMATION
|
||
DE-AMINE 4 is a herbicide that contains 2,4-D Dimethylamine salt active ingredient. It is intended for selective
|
||
control of many broadleaf weeds in the various sites listed on this label.
|
||
Apply this product as a water or oil-water spray during warm weather when target weeds or woody plants are
|
||
actively growing. Application under drought conditions will often give poor results. Use low spray pressure to
|
||
minimize drift. Generally, the lower dosages specified on this label will be satisfactory for young, succulent
|
||
growth of susceptible weed species. For less susceptible species and under conditions where control is more
|
||
difficult, use the higher specified rates. Deep-rooted perennials such as Canada thistle and Field bindweed
|
||
and many woody plants usually require repeated applicat ions for satisfactory control. Consult your State
|
||
Agricultural Experiment stations or Extension Service Weed Specialist for recommendations from this label
|
||
that best fit local conditions.
|
||
USE PRECAUTIONS
|
||
xExcessive amounts of 2,4-D in the soil may inhibit seed germination and plant growth temporarily.
|
||
USE RESTRICTIONS
|
||
xDO NOT apply this product through any type of irrigation system.
|
||
xUse of this product in certain portions of California, Oregon, and Washington is subject to the January 22,
|
||
2004 Order for injunctive relief in Washington Toxics Coalition et. al. v. EPA, C01-0132C, (W.D. W.A.).
|
||
For further information, please refer to EPA website: http://www.epa.gov/espp/litstatus/wtc/index.htm.
|
||
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) 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 acti ve 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 (ASAE 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 (ASAEstandard 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, residentia l areas, bodies of water,
|
||
known habitat for non-target species, non-target 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 temperature
|
||
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.
|
||
|
||
Page 5 of 33
|
||
Susceptible Plants
|
||
Do not apply under circumstances where spray drift may occu r to food, forage, or other plantings that might
|
||
be damaged or crops thereof rendered unfit for sale, us e or consumption. Susceptible crops include, but are
|
||
not limited to Cotton, Okra, flowers, fruit trees, Grapes (in growing stag e), fruit trees (foliage), Soybeans
|
||
(vegetative stage), Ornamentals, Sunflowers, Tomatoes , Beans, and other vegetables or Tobacco. Small
|
||
amounts of spray drift that may 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.
|
||
Aerial Application
|
||
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 effica cy and flight safety. 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. W hen 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.
|
||
Ground Boom Application
|
||
Groundboom: Do not apply with a nozzle height greater than 4 feet above the crop canopy.
|
||
Handguns and Boomless Nozzles: Applications for Rights-of-way vegetation management are best applied
|
||
with specialized nozzles delivering a coarse or very coarse spray volume.
|
||
MIXING
|
||
Mix this product only with water, unless otherwise directed on this label. Add about half the water to the mixing
|
||
tank, then, add this product with agitation, and finally the rest of the water with continuing agitation.
|
||
Note: Adding oil, wetting agent, or other surfactant to the spray mixture may increase effectiveness on weeds,
|
||
but also may reduce selectivity to crops resulting in crop damage.
|
||
Tank-mixing
|
||
When tank-mixing, read and follow the label of each tank-mix product used for precautionary statements,
|
||
directions for use, weeds controlled, and geographic and other restrictions. Use in accordance with the most
|
||
restrictive of label limitat ions and precautions. No label dosages should be exceeded. Do not tank-mix this
|
||
product with any product containing a label prohibition against tank-mixing with 2,4-D.
|
||
It is the pesticide user’s responsibility 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.
|
||
Tank-mix Compatibility Testing
|
||
If compatibility with the tank-mix product is not known, perform a jar test prior to tank-mixing to ensure
|
||
compatibility of this product and other pesticides. Use a clear glass quart jar with lid and mix the tank-mix
|
||
ingredients in their relative proportions. Invert the jar containing the mixture several times and observe the
|
||
mixture for approximately one-half hour. If the mixture balls-up, jells, forms flakes, sludge, oily films or layers,
|
||
or other precipitates, it is not compatible and the tank-mix combination should not be used.
|
||
Mixing With Liquid Fertilizer
|
||
This product may be combined with liquid nitrogen fertilizer suitable for foliar application to accomplish
|
||
broadleaf weed control and fertilization of Corn, small grains or Pastures in a single operation. Use this product
|
||
in accordance with directions for these crops provided in this label. Use liquid fertilizer at rates specified by
|
||
the supplier or Extension Service Specialist.
|
||
Test for mixing compatibility as describe above before mixing in spray tank. A compatibility aid such as Mix
|
||
TM,
|
||
Unite or Compex may be needed in some situations. Compatibility is best with liquid fertilizer solutions
|
||
containing only nitrogen. Mixing with N-P-K solutions may not be satisfactory, even with the addition of a
|
||
|
||
Page 6 of 33
|
||
compatibility aid. Premixing 1 part this product with up to 4 parts water may help in situations when mixing
|
||
difficulty occurs. Fill the tank about half full with the liquid fertilizer, then add the required amount of this product
|
||
with agitation. Maintain agitation and complete filling the tank with liquid fertilizer. Apply immediately and
|
||
continue agitation in spray tank during application. Do not store the spray mixture. Application during very cold
|
||
weather (near freezing) is not advisable.
|
||
SPRAYER CLEAN-OUT
|
||
To avoid injury to desirable plants, equipment used to apply this product should be thoroughly cleaned before
|
||
re-use or applying other chemicals.
|
||
1. Rinse and flush application equipment thoroughly afte r use at least three times with water. Dispose of all
|
||
rinse water by application to treatment area or apply to non-cropland area away from water supplies.
|
||
2. During the second rinse, add 1 quart of household ammonia for every 25 gallons of water. Circulate the
|
||
solution through the entire system so that all internal surfaces are contacted (15 to 20 minutes). Let the
|
||
solution stand for several hours, preferably overnight.
|
||
3. Flush the solution out of the spray tank through the boom.
|
||
4. Rinse the system twice with clean water, recirculating and draining each time.

||
5. Remove nozzles and screens and clean separately.
|
||
6. If equipment is to be used to apply another pesticide or agricultural chemical to a 2,4-D susceptible crop,
|
||
additional steps may be required to remove all traces of 2,4-D, including cleaning of disassembled parts
|
||
and replacement of hoses or other fittings that may contain absorbed 2,4-D.
|
||
APPLICATION
|
||
Apply with calibrated air or ground equipment using sufficient spray volume to provide adequate coverage of
|
||
target weeds or as otherwise directed in specific use directions. For broadcast application, use a spray volume
|
||
of 1 or more gallons per acre by air and 5 or more gallons per acre for ground equipment unless otherwise
|
||
specified. Where states have regulations which specify minimum spray volumes, they should be observed. In
|
||
general, spray volume should be increased as crop canopy, height and weed density increase in order to
|
||
obtain adequate spray coverage.
|
||
RANGE OF RATES AND APPLICATION TIMING
|
||
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 actively growing.
|
||
SPOT TREATMENT
|
||
To prevent misapplication, spot treatments should be applied with a calibrated boom or with hand sprayers
|
||
using a fixed spray volume per 1,000 square feet as indicated below.
|
||
Handheld Sprayers: Handheld sprayers may be used for spot applications of this product. Care should be
|
||
taken to apply the spray uniformly and at a rate equivalent to a broadcast application. Application rates in the
|
||
table are based on the application rate for an area of 1,000 square feet. Mix the amount of this product
|
||
corresponding to the desired broadcast rate in 1 to 3 gallons of spray. To calculate the amount of this product
|
||
required for larger areas, multiply the table value (fl. oz. or ml) by the thousands of square feet to be treated.
|
||
An area of 1000 square feet is approximately 10.5 X 10.5 yards (strides) in size.

|
||
Perennial broadleaf weeds 2.6
|
||
Apply when weeds are approaching bud stage
|
||
after the grain dough stage. Do not spray during
|
||
the boot to dough stage. The 2.6 pints per acre per
|
||
application can produce injury to Wheat. Balance
|
||
the severity of the weed problem against the

||
Crop This Product
|
||
(Pt./Ac.) Specific Use Instructions
|
||
Not underseeded with Legumes:
|
||
Spring Planted Oats 0.5 to 2**
|
||
Apply in sufficient water to give good coverage.
|
||
Apply after fully tillered except during the boot to
|
||
dough stage.
|
||
Not underseeded with Legumes:
|
||
Fall Planted Oats 1 to 1.5**
|
||
Apply after full tillering but before early boot stage.
|
||
Some difficult weeds may require higher
|
||
application rates per acre for maximum control, but
|
||
injury may result. Do not spray during or
|
||
immediately following cold weather.
|
||
Underseeded with Legumes:
|
||
Oats 0.25 to 0.5**
|
||
Apply after grain is 8 inches tall. Do not apply
|
||
before tillering or from early boot through the milk
|
||
stage of growth.
|
||
Do not spray Alfalfa or Sweet clover unless the
|
||
infestation is severe and injury to these legumes
|
||
can be tolerated.
|
||
Pre-harvest 1
|
||
Apply when grains are in the hard dough stage to
|
||
control large weeds that may interfere with
|
||
harvest. Best results will be obtained when soil
|
||
moisture is sufficient to cause succulent weed
|
||
growth.
|
||
*Oats are less tolerant to 2,4-D than Wheat or Barley and more likely to be injured.
|
||
**Use the lower rate if small annual and biennial weeds are the major problem. Use the higher rate if
|
||
perennial weeds or annual and biennial weeds are present which are in the hard-to-kill categories as
|
||
determined by local experience. The higher rates increase the risk of grain injury and should be used
|
||
only where the weed control problem justifies the grain damage risk. Do not apply this product to grain in
|
||
the seedling stage.

Planting in Treated Areas
|
||
Labeled Crops: Within 29 days after an application of this product, plant only those crops listed on this or
|
||
other registered 2,4-D labels. Follow more stringent limitations, if any, provided in directions for specific crops.
|
||
Labeled crops may be at risk of crop injury or loss if plan ted soon after application, especially during the first
|
||
14 days. When weighing this risk, consider the degradation factors described below.
|
||
Other Crops: All other crops may be planted 30 or more days after 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
|
||
breakdown 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 or information about susceptible crops and typical conditions in your area.

|
||
(Pt./Ac.) Specific Use Instructions
|
||
Annual weeds 2 to 4 Use 2 gallons or more of spray solution per acre.
|
||
Apply using low pressure spray (10 to 40 psi) in a
|
||
spray volume of 20 to 100 gallons per acre using
|
||
power operated spray equipment. Apply when wind
|
||
speed is low, 5 mph or less. Apply working upstream
|
||
to avoid accidental concentration of spray into water.
|
||
Cross-stream spraying to opposite banks is not
|
||
permitted and avoid boom spraying over water
|
||
surface. When spraying shoreline weeds, allow no
|
||
more than a 2 foot overspray onto water surface with
|
||
an average of less than 1 foot of overspray to
|
||
prevent significant water contamination.
|
||
Apply when weeds are small and growing actively
|
||
before the bud stage. Apply when biennial and
|
||
perennial species are in the seedling to rosette stage
|
||
and before flower stalks appear. For hard-to-control
|
||
weeds, a repeat application after 30 days at the
|
||
same rate may be needed.
|
||
For woody species and patches of perennial weeds,
|
||
mix 1 gallon of this product in 64 to 150 gallons of
|
||
total spray. Wet foliage by applying about 3 to 4

|
||
• Do not use on small canals with a flow rate less than 10 cubic feet per second (CFS) where water will be
|
||
used for drinking purposes.
|
||
CFS may be estimated by using the formula below.
|
||
The approximate velocity needed for the calculation can be determined by observing the length of time that it
|
||
takes a floating object to travel a defined distance. Divide the distance (ft.) by the time (sec.) to estimate
|
||
velocity (ft. per sec.). Repeat 3 times and use the average to calculate CFS.
|
||
CFS = Average Width (ft.) x Average Depth (ft.) x Average Velocity (ft. per sec.)
|
||
For Ditchbank Weeds:
|
||
• Do not allow boom spray to be directed onto water surface.
|
||
• Do not spray cross-stream to opposite bank.
|
||
For Shoreline Weeds:
|
||
• Boom spraying onto water surface must be held to a minimum.
|
||
x Allow no more than 2 foot overspray onto water with an average of less than 1 foot overspray to prevent
|
||
introduction of greater than negligible amounts of chemical into the water.

|
||
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 untre ated strips that can be treated af ter vegetation in treated lanes has
|
||
disintegrated. During the growing season, weeds decompose in a 2 to 3 week period following treatment.
|
||
Waters having limited and less dense weed infestations may not require partial treatments. Other local factors
|
||
such as water exchange and sediment load can also influence the dissolved oxygen level. Coordination and
|
||
approval of local and state aut horities may be required, either by letter of agreement or issuance of special
|
||
permits for aquatic applications.
|
||
Water Use:
|
||
1 . Water for Irrigation or Sprays:
|
||
A. If treated water is intended to be used only for crops or non-crop areas that are labeled for direct
|
||
treatment with 2,4-D such as Past ures, Turfgrass or Cereal grains, the treated water may be used to
|
||
irrigate and/or mix sprays for these sites at any time after the 2,4-D aquatic application.
|
||
B. 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 di rect 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 > 600 feet was used for the application, or,
|
||
ii. A waiting period of 7 days from the time of application has elapsed, or,
|
||
iii. An approved assay indicates that the 2,4-D concentration is 100 ppb (0.1 ppm) or less at the
|
||
water intake. Wait at least 3 days after application before initial sampling at water intake.
|
||
2. Drinking Water (Potable Water):
|
||
A. Consult with appropriate st ate or local water authorities before applying this product to public waters.
|
||
State or local agencies may require permits. The potable water use restrictions on this label are to
|
||
ensure that consumption of water by the public is allowed only when the concentration of 2,4-D in the
|
||
water is less than the MCL (Maximum Contaminant Le vel) of 70 ppb. Applicators should consider the
|
||
unique characteristics of the treated waters to assure that 2,4-D concentrations in potable water do not
|
||
exceed 70 ppb at the time of consumption.
|
||
B. For floating and emergent weed applications, the drinking water setback distance from functioning
|
||
potable water intakes is > 600 feet.
|
||
C. If no setback distance of > 600 feet is used for the application, applicators or the authorizing organization
|
||
must provide a drinking water notification prior to a 2,4-D application to the party responsible for a public
|
||
water supply or to individual private water users. Notification to the party responsible for a public water
|
||
supply or to individual private water users must be done in a manner to assure that the party is aware
|
||
of a water use restrictions when this product is applied to potable water.
|
||
The following is an example of notification via posting, but other methods of notification which convey
|
||
the above restrictions may be used and may be required in some cases under state or local law or as
|
||
a condition of a permit.
|
||
EXAMPLE:
|
||
Posting notification should be located every 250 feet including the shoreline of the treated area and up
|
||
to 250 feet of shoreline past the application site to include immediate public access points.
|
||
Posting must include the day and time of application. Posting may be removed if analysis of a sample
|
||
collected at the intake 3 days or more following application shows that the concentration in the water is
|
||
less than 70 ppb (100 ppb for irrigation or spra ys), or after 7 days following application, whichever
|
||
occurs first.
|
||
Text of Notification: Wait 7 days before diverting functioning surface water intakes from the treated
|
||
aquatic site to use as drinking water, irrigation, or sprays, unless water at functioning drinking water
|
||
intakes is tested at least 3 days after application and is demonstrated by assay to contain no more than

|
||
Page 31 of 33
|
||
Fish breathe oxygen in the water and a water-oxygen ratio must be maintained. Decaying weeds use up
|
||
oxygen, but during the period when applications should be made, the weed mass is fairly sparse and the weed
|
||
decomposition rate is slow enough that the water-oxygen ratio is not disturbed by treating the entire area at
|
||
one time. If treatments must be applied later in the season when the weed mass is dense and repeat
|
||
treatments are needed, apply product in lanes, leaving buffer strips which can then be treated when vegetation
|
||
in treated lanes has disintegrated. During the growing season, weeds decompose in a 2 to 3 week period
|
||
following treatment.
|
||
Water Use:
|
||
1. Water for Irrigation or Sprays
|
||
A. If treated water is intended to be used only for crops or non-crop areas that are labeled for direct

|
||
irrigate and/or mix sprays for these sites at anytime after the 2,4-D aquatic application.
|
||
B. Due to potential phytotoxicity and/or residue considerations, the following restrictions are applicable:
|
||
If treated water is intended to be used to irrigate or mix sprays for unlabeled crops, non-crop areas or
