ENVIRONMENTAL HAZARDS 
This product Is toxic to aquatic invertebrates. Drift or runoff may adve",e~ affect 
aquatic invertebrates and nanlarget planls. For terrestrfal uses, da not apply directly 
to water or to areas where surfaoe water Is present or to Intertidal areas below the 
mean hlgh-water marl<. Vapors from Ihis product'rnay injuresusceptible planls in ihe 
Immediate vicinity. Use care to avoid sprayconlact ordrift to 2,4-0 suscepbble planls 
such as cotton, tomatoes. flowers, okra, grapes, fruit trees and omamentals. 00 not 
permit spray mist containIng this product to drift onto them. Do not spray when the 
wind Is blowing towards susceptlble crops or ornamental plants. Use coarse sprays 
and/or low spray pressure to mlnfmize drift. Do not apply with hollow cone type insec­
ticide or other nozzfes that produce fine spray droplets. Spray drift can be lessened 
by keeping the spray boom as low as possible by spraying when wind velocity is low, 
by decreasing the pounds of pressure of the nozzle tips and by stopping all spraying 
when wind exceeds_6 10 7 mnes per hour. On cropland and along roadsides, do not 
exceed 20 psi pressure. 00 not apply when temperature air inversion exists. If ques· 
tfons exis! pertaining to the existence of an Inversion, consult with local weatherser· 
vices before making an application. Qo not use the same spray equipment for apply· 
ing other materials to 2,4·0 susceptible crops as Injury may result. It is best to use a 
separate sprayerforapplicatlon ofinsectiddes and fungicides. Clean and nnse spray 
equipment using soap or detergent and water or suitable chemIcal cleaner and rinse 
thoroughly before reuse for other spraying. Do not contaminate water when dlspos· 
Ing of equipment wash walenl. Do not app~ Ihls product Ihrough any type of irriga­
tion system. Do not contaminate domestic or irrigation waters. However, treated wa· 
ter may be used for watering turf grasses immediately after application. Do not use in 
or near a greenhouse. Ex~sive amounts of this product In the soil may temporanly 
inhibit seed germination and plant growth. 
Most cases of groundwater contamination Involving phenoxy herbicides such as 2.4-
o have been associated with mixlngnoading and disposal sites. Caution should be 
exercised When handling '2.4-0 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 mixingJloading equipment on an 
impervious pad to contain spills will help prevent groundwater contamination. When 
using on Pastures and rangeland Grasses there fs..a (1) 7 -day pre-grazing interval for 
dairy cattle; (2) JO-<lay pre-harvest interval for grass cut for hay; and (3) 3-<1ay pre· 
slaughter Interval for meat animals. 
STORAGE A NDOISPOSAL 
Storage: Always use OOginal container to store pesticides in a semred warehouse 
or storage building. Do not stare near seeds, fertilizers, insecticides or fungicides. 
Containers snould be opened, in well·ventilated areas. Do not contaminate water, 
food or feed by storage or disposal Keep container tightly sealed when not in use. 
Do not stack cardboard cases more than two pallets high. 
Pesticide Disposal: Pesticide wastes are toxic. Imprope-r disposal of excess pesti· 
cide, spray mixtures or rinsate is a violation of Federal law. If container is damaged or 
jf pesticidahasJeaked, contain all spillage. Absorb and clean up all spHJed material 
with granules or sand. Place in a _closed" labeled container for proper disposal. If 
these wastes cannot be disposed of. by use aCC<1rciing to label instructions, contact 
your Sta~e P_estidde or EnvffC;1!1m~tal ~O{ltro~~, or the Hazardous Waste rep-
resentative at the nearest EPA Regional (1ffice for guidance. ~ -__ 
Container Disposal: Triple rinse (or equivalent). Then offer for recycling or recondi· 
lioning ar puncture and dopos. af in a sanitary landfill, or olher procedures approved

USE DIBSCIIONS 
Generally, the lower dosages given wm be satisfactory for young succulent growth of 
sensitive weed species. For less sensitive specimens and under ronditlons where con· 
trolls more difficult the higher dosages will be naaded. Apply during wanm weather 
when weeds are young and growing actively. Use enough spray volume for uniform 
"COVerage by ground or air application. If only bands or rows are treated/leaving middies 
unsprayed, the dosage per crop acre Is reduced proportionatety. Do not apply where 
dnft may be a problem due to proximity of susceptible crops or other desirable plants. 
Read and follow all Use Precautions given on th~ label. 
Ground Application: Apply at least 20 ganons of spray solution per acre. 
Air Application: Apply 3 to 5 gallons 01 spray solutlon per acre. 
To Prepare the Spray, mix only with water, unless otheiWisee:Urected on this label. Add 
about half the water to the m~lng tank, then add the herbldde with agitation and finally 
the rest of the water with continuing agitation. NOTE: Adding o~. wetting agenL or 
other surfactant to the spray may Increase effectiveness on weeds, but also may reduce 
selectivity to crops resulting in crop damage.

ing 01 tawns should be delayed lollowing treatment With spring application, reseed In 
the fall, with fall application, reseed in the spring. Legumes are usually damaged or 
killed. Deep-rooted perennial weeds such as bindweed and Canada thistle require reo 
peated applications. - .

For control of annual and perenn!al broadleaf weeds, apply 2/3 to 1~lf3 gt5,. per acre in 
approximately 20 to 100 gallons per acre. Treafwhen weeds are young and actively 
growing before the bud or early bloom stage. For harder-tlXOntml weeds a repeat 
spray after 3 to 4 weeks using the same rates may be needed for maximum results. 
Apply no more than two treatments per season. 
For woody brush and patches of perennIal broadleaf weeds, mix 2/3 gallon in 150 gal­
lons of water. Wet foliage thoroughly using about one gallon of solution per square rod. 
SPRAYING INSTRUCTIONS -Applywith low pressure (10 10 40 psij power spray equip­
ment mounted on a truck tractor or boat Apply while traveling upstream to avoid acci­
dental concentration of chemical Into water. Spray when the air is fairly calm, 5 mph or 
less. Do not use on small canals (less than 10 cfs) where water will be used for drlnking 
purposes. 
Boom spraying onto water surface must be held to a minimum and no cross-stream 
sprayIng to opposite banks should be permitted. When spraying shoreline weeds, allow 
no more than two-footover-spray onto water with an average of less than one.rootover­

Consult your State Game and Fish Department or Weed controlAgenCy priorto appJicit- . 
tion of this product for aquatic weed control. 
Treatmentof aquatic weeds can result in oxygen loss from decomposition of dead weeds. 
This loss ca.n cause fish suffocation. Therefore, to minfmlze this hazard, treat 113 to % of 
the water area in a single operation and wait at least 10 to 14 days between treatments. 
Begin treatment along the shore and proceed outwards in bands to allow fish to move 
Into untreated areas.
