Groundwater Advisory
This product is known to leach through soil into groundwater under certain conditions as a result of label use. This product
may leach into groundwater if used in areas where soils are permeable, particularly where the water table is shallow.
Surface Water Advisory
This product may impact surface water quality due to runoff of rain water. This is especially true for poorly draining soils
and soils with shallow ground water. This product is classified as having high potential for reaching surface water via
runoff for several weeks or more after application. A level, well-maintained vegetative buffer strip between areas to which
this product is applied and surface water features including pon ds, streams, and springs will reduce the potential loading
of this product from runoff water and sediment. Runoff of this product will be greatly reduced by avoiding applications
when rainfall or irrigation is expected to occur within 48 hours.
Windblown Soil Particles Advisory
This product has the potential to move off-site due to wind ero sion. Soils that are subject to wind erosion usually have a
high silt and/or fine to very fine sand fractions and low organic matter content. Other factors which can affect the movement
of windblown soil include the intensity and direction of prevailing winds, vegetative cover, site slope, rainfall, and drainage
patterns. Avoid applying this product if prevailing local conditions may be expected to result in off-site movement.
Non-target Organism Advisory
This product is toxic to plants and may adversely impact the fo rage and habitat of non-target organisms, including
pollinators, in areas adjacent to the treated area. Protect the forage and habitat of non-target organisms by minimizing
spray drift. For further guidance and instructions on how to mi nimize spray drift, refer to the Spray Drift Management
section of this label.
USER SAFETY RECOMMENDATIONS
USERS SHOULD: Wash hands before eating, drinking, chewing gum, using tobacco, or using the toilet. Users shoul d
remove clothing/PPE immediately if pesticide gets inside. Then wash thoroughly and put on clean clothing. Users should
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.

PRODUCT INFORMATION
CHLORMET XP herbicide is a dry-flowable granule that controls weeds in wheat (including durum), barley, triticale, fallow
and CRP grasses.
CHLORMET XP herbicide is mixed in water or may be slurried in wa ter then added directly into liquid nitrogen fertilizer
solutions and applied as a uniform broadcast spray. A surfactant must be used in the spray mix unless otherwise specified on
this label. CHLORMET XP herbicide is noncorrosive, nonflammable, nonvolatile, and does not freeze.
CHLORMET XP herbicide controls weeds by both preemergence and postemergence activity. For best preemergence results,
apply CHLORMET XP herbicide before weed seeds germinate. Use spr inkler irrigation or allow rainfall to move
CHLORMET XP herbicide 2" to 3" deep into the soil profile.
For best postemergence results, apply CHLORMET XP herbicide to y oung, actively growing weeds. The use rate depends
upon the weed spectrum and size of weeds at the time of applica tion. The degree and duration of control may depend on the
following:
• weed spectrum and infestation density
• weed size at application
• environmental conditions at and following treatment
ENVIRONMENTAL CONDITIONS AND BIOLOGICAL ACTIVITY
CHLORMET XP herbicide is absorbed through the roots and foliage of plants, rapidly inhibiting the growth of susceptible
weeds. For preplant and preemergence weed control, rainfall is needed to move CHLORMET XP herbicide into the soil.
Weeds will generally not emerge from preplant and preemergence applications. In some cases, susceptible weeds may
germinate and emerge a few days after application, but growth t hen ceases and leaves become chlorotic three to five days
after emergence. Death of leaf tissue and growing point will fo llow in some species, while others will remain green but
stunted and noncompetitive.
One to three weeks after postemergence application to weeds, le aves of susceptible plants appear chlorotic, and the growing
point subsequently dies. In warm, moist conditions, the express ion of herbicide symptoms is accelerated; in cold, dry
conditions, expression of herbicide symptoms is delayed. Death of leaf tissue will follow in some species, while others will
remain green but stunted and noncompetitive. Postemergence weed control may be reduced if rainfall occurs within 6 hours
after application.
CHLORMET XP herbicide provides the best control of weeds in vigo rously growing crops that shade competitive weeds.
Weed control in areas of thin crop stand or seeding skips may n ot provide satisfactory control. However, a crop canopy that
is too dense at application can intercept spray and reduce weed control.
The herbicidal action of CHLORMET XP herbicide may be less effec tive on weeds stressed from adverse environmental
conditions (including extreme temperatures or moisture, drought stress), abnormal soi l conditions, or cultural practices that
increase weed stress. In these cases, tank mix CHLORMET XP herb icide with other registered herbicides ( including 2,4-D,
or MCPA) to aid in control.
It is the pesticide users responsibility to ensure that all pro ducts 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. If the instructions on
the tank mix partner label conflicts with this CHLORMET XP herbicide label, do not use in a tank mixture with CHLORMET
XP herbicide.

PRECAUTIONS
Injury to or loss of adjacent sensitive crops and vegetation may result from failure to observe thefollowing:
- Take all necessary precautions to avoid all direct or indirect contact (including spray drift) with non-target plants or areas.
- Carefully observe sprayer cleanup instructions, both prior to a nd after using this product, as spray tank residue may
damage crops other than wheat or barley.
• Wheat, barley, and triticale varieties may differ in their response to various herbicides. FMC advises that you first consult your
state experiment station, university, or extension agent as to sensitivity to any herbicide. If no information is available, limit the
initial use of CHLORMET XP herbicide to a smallarea.
• Wherever CHLORMET XP herbicide is used on land previously treated with Glean® XP herbicide , Ally® XP herbicide ,
Ally® ExtraSG herbicide (with Totalsol® soluble granules), Ambe r® Custom-Pak™ herbicide or other longer residual
herbicides with the same mode of action, read the rotational guidelines onboth labels and follow the one with the longest interval
stated for your situation before choosing to rotate to crops other than wheat or barley.
• To reduce the potential for movement of treated soil due to wind erosion,do notapply to powdery, dry, or light sandy soils until
they have been stabilized by rainfall, trashy mulch, reduced tillage or other cultural practices. Injury to adjacent crops may result
when treated soil is blown onto land used to produce cropsother than cerealgrains.
• For ground applications applied postemergence to weeds when dry, dusty field conditions exist, control of weeds in wheel track
areasmay be reduced.Add 2,4-D or MCPA to improve weed control under these conditions.
• Temporary discoloration and/or cropinjury mayoccur if CHLORMET XP herbicide is applied whenthe cropis stressed bysevere
weather conditions (including heavy rainfall, prolonged cold weather, or wide fluctuations in day/night temperatures), disease or
insect damage, low fertility, applications to coarse soils, or when applied in combination with surfactant and high rates of liquid
nitrogenfertilizersolutions.

WEED RESISTANCE MANAGEMENT
CHLORMET XP herbicide, which contains the active ingredients chlorsulfuron and metsulfuron methyl is a group 2 herbicide
based on the mode of action classification system of the Weed Science Society of America.
Proactively implementing diversified weed control strategies to minimize selection for weed populations resistant to one or
more herbicides is a best practice. A diversified weed manageme nt program may include the use of multiple herbicides with
different sites of action and overlapping weed spectrum with or without tillage operations and/or other cultural practices.
Research has demonstrated that using the labeled rate and directions for use is important to delay the selection for resistance.
The continued effectiveness of this product depends on the succ essful implementation of a weed resistance management
program.
To aid in the prevention of developing weeds resistant to this product, users must:
Scout fields before application to ensure herbicides and rates will be appropriate for the weed species and weed sizes present.
Start with a clean field, using either a burndown herbicide application or tillage. Control weeds early when they are relatively
small (less than 4 inches).
Apply full rates of CHLORMET XP herbicide, for the most difficult to control weed in the field at the specified time (correct
weed size) to minimize weed escapes.
• Scout fields after application to detect weed escapes or shifts in control of weed species.
• Control weed escapes before they reproduce by seed or proliferate vegetatively.
• Report any incidence of non-performance of this product agains t a particular weed to your Agsurf representative, local
retailer, or county extension agent.
• Contact your Agsurf representative, crop advisor, or extension agent to find out if suspected resistant weeds to these MOAs
have been found in your region. Do not assume that each listed weed is being controlled by multiple sites of action. Products
with multiple active ingredients are intended to broaden the sp ectrum of weeds that are controlled. Some weeds may be
controlled by only one of the active ingredient in this product.
• If resistance is suspected, treat weed escapes with an herbici de having a site of action other than Group 2 and/or use
nonchemical methods to remove escapes, as practical, with the goal of preventing further seed production.
• Suspected herbicide-resistant weeds may be identified by these indicators:
- Failure to control a weed species normally controlled by the h erbicide at the dose applied, especially if control is
achieved on adjacent weeds;
- A spreading patch of non-controlled plants of a particular wee d species; and
- Surviving plants mixed with controlled individuals of the same species.
Additionally, users must follow as many of the following herbicide resistance management practices as is practical:
• Use a broad spectrum soil-applied herbicide with other sites of action as a foundation in a weed control program.
• Utilize sequential applications of herbicides with alternative sites of action.
• Rotate the use of this product with non-Group 2 herbicides.
• Avoid making more than two applications of CHLORMET XP herbicid e, and any other Group 2 herbicides within a single
growing season unless mixed with an herbicide with a different site of action with an overlapping spectrum for the difficult-
to-control weeds.
• Incorporate non-chemical weed control practices, including mech anical cultivation, crop rotation, cover crops and weed-
free crop seeds, as part of an integrated weed control program.
• Use good agronomic principles that enhance crop development an d crop competitiveness.
• Thoroughly clean plant residues from equipment before leaving fields suspected to contain resistant weeds.
• Manage weeds in and around fields, during and after harvest to reduce weed seed production.
INTEGRATED PEST MANAGEMENT
This product may be used as part of an Integrated Pest Manageme nt (IPM) program that can include biological, cultural, and
genetic practices aimed at preventing economic pest damage. IPM principles and practices include field scouting or other
detection methods, correct target pest identification, populati on monitoring, and treating when target pest populations reach
locally determined action thresholds. Consult your state cooper ative extension service, professional consultants or other
qualified authorities to determine appropriate action treatment threshold levels for treating specific pest/crop systems in yo ur
area.

POSTEMERGENCE
CHLORMET XP herbicide can be tank mixed with other products regi stered for postemergence use in wheat and barley.
CHLORMET XP herbicide must not be used within 60 days of crop emergence if an organophosph ate insecticide was used
as an in-furrow treatment, or crop injury may result.
In areas where late fall or winter cold weather conditions are unpredictable and can be severe (including the Pacific Northwest and
Northern plains), to avoid crop injury due to cold weather, do not make applications during the 1 to 4-leaf stage of wheat, barley ,
or triticale. The combined effects of herbicide stress plus cold weather stress can result in greater crop injury than either stress factor
alone.
APPLICATION INFORMATION CHLORMET XP

CRP APPLICATIONS
CHLORMET XP herbicide is for control of broadleaf weeds in the following perennial native or improved grasses
grown on land enrolled in the Conservation Reserve Program (CRP):
Bentgrasses Orchardgrass
Blue Grama Sheep fescue
Bluestems: big, little, plains, sand, WW spar Sideoats grama
Buffalo grass Switchgrass blackwell
Green sprangletop Tall fescue
Indiangrass Wheatgrasses: bluebunch, crested, intermediate,
pubescent, Siberian, slender, streambank, tall,
thickspike, western
Kleingrass Wildgrass: beardless, Russian
Lovegrasses: atherstone, sane, weeping, wilman,
Maximize potential for grass establishment by consulting with t he Natural Resources Conservation Service (NRCS) or
other local experts concerning planting techniques and other cultural practices. Because newly planted CRP grass stands
do not sufficiently compete with weeds and because weed pressur e in CRP fields is often severe, performance from
CHLORMET XP herbicide may not always be satisfactory. An additi onal herbicide application or mowing may be
needed.
PREPLANT (PRIOR TO PLANTING)
APPLICATION INFORMATION CHLORMET XP
herbicide Active Ingredient Equivalent
CHLORMET XP herbicide may be applied at 0.2
0.4 oz per acre to all labelled grasses except
bentgrasses, kleingrass, orchardgrass, plains and
WW Spar bluestems, Russian wildrye grass, and
sheep fescue. The 0.4 oz rate must be used for
preemergence applications where residual weed

The higher rate of surfactant is particularly effective with sp ray volumes of 5 gallons per acre (GPA) or less and when
using low rates of CHLORMET XP herbicide. Consult your agricult ural dealer, applicator, or FMC representative for a
listing of specified surfactants.
Antifoaming agents may be used if needed.
Do not use low rates of liquid nitrogen fertilizer solution as a substitute for surfactant.

Bromus species (cheat, downy brome, Japanese brome): Best suppression of these grasses is achieved by applications
of CHLORMET XP herbicide with metribuzin (including “Sencor” DF) either in tank mixtures or as sequential treatments.
Additional information may be available in a metribuzin supplemental label for winter wheat, barley, and fallow.
Allow for adequate rainfall (1/2 to 1") to move CHLORMET XP herbicide and metribuzin into the weed root zone before
weeds germinate and develop an established root system. Lack of adequate rainfall following application will result in
reduced performance.
To avoid the risk of cold weather-related crop injury and lack of performance, apply metribuzin before winter dormancy
of the crop and grassy weeds. Excessive rainfall immediately after application may result in crop injury. Do not tank mix
CHLORMET XP herbicide plus metribuzin with any other pesticide o ther than surfactants specified on either the
CHLORMET XP herbicide or metribuzin labels. Apply only to metrib uzin-approved varieties, see metribuzin label for
listing of sensitive wheat and barley varieties.
Preemergence/Sequential Applications
Apply CHLORMET XP herbicide at 0.5 oz per acre
preemergence after planting winter wheat but before
wheat emerges. A sequential application of metribuzin
may be applied at label rates in the fall once the wheat
has reached the 4 to 5-leaf stage of growth and the
annual grassy weeds are in the 1 to 3-leaf stage of
growth. Refer to the product containing the active
ingredient metribuzin for rates and specific use
instructions.

TANK MIXTURES
CHLORMET XP herbicide may be tank mixed with other registered h erbicides, fungicides, insecticides, or liquid
fertilizer. It is the pesticide users responsibility to ensure that all products are registered for the intended use. Read an d
follow the applicable restrictions and limitations and directio ns for use on all product labels involved in tank mixing. If
the instructions on the tank mix partner label conflict with th is CHLORMET XP herbicide label, do not use in a tank
mixture with CHLORMET XP herbicide.
Since tank-mix partners can interfere with CHLORMET XP herbicid e dispersion in the spray solution, it is advised that
CHLORMET XP herbicide be slurried in a separate container before adding it to the tank mix. CHLORMET XP herbicide
must be in suspension in the spray tank before adding companion products.
With 2,4-D (amine or ester) or MCPA (amine or ester)
CHLORMET XP herbicide can be used as a tank-mix
treatment with 2,4-D or MCPA herbicides (ester
formulations provide best results) after weeds have
emerged. For best results, use 0.2 to 0.4 oz of
CHLORMET XP herbicide per acre; add 2,4-D or
MCPA herbicides to the tank at labeled rates.
Surfactant may be added to the mixture at 0.5 to 1 qt
per 100 gal of spray solution; however, adding
surfactant may increase the potential for crop injury.
Do not add a surfactant when CHLORMET XP
herbicide plus 2,4-D or MCPA is applied with liquid
fertilizer.

Applying a tank mixture of CHLORMET XP herbicide, 2,4-D, or MCP A and liquid fertilizer when temperatures are
below freezing or when the crop is stressed from cold weather j ust prior to winter dormancy can result in foliar burn
and/or crop injury.
With Bromoxynil
CHLORMET XP herbicide may be tank mixed at labeled rates with b romoxynil containing herbicides registered for
use on wheat, barley or triticale.
With Dicamba
CHLORMET XP herbicide may be tank mixed with products containin g the active ingredient dicamba (including
Banvel herbicide) at labeled rates. Use higher rates when weed infestation is heavy. Nonionic surfactant may be added
to the mixture at 0.5 to 1 quart per 100 gal of spray solution (0.125 to 0.25% v/v); however, adding nonionic surfactant
may increase the potential for crop injury. Tank mixes of CHLOR MET XP herbicide plus dicamba may result in
reduced control of some broadleaf weeds.

With Fluroxypyr
CHLORMET XP herbicide may be tank mixed with fluroxypyr containing herbicides for improved control of Kochia (2-
4" tall) and other broadleaf weed s at labeled rates. 2,4-D and M CP herbicides may be tank mixed with CHLORMET XP
herbicide plus fluroxypyr.
With Other Broadleaf Control Products
For improved control of broadleaf weeds, CHLORMET XP herbicide c an be tank mixed with other herbicides registered
on cereals including " WideMatch® herbicide, Aim® EC herbicide, Stinger® Herbicide, or Curtail® Herbicide.
With Grass Control Products
For improved control of grass weeds, CHLORMET XP herbicide can b e tankmixed with other grass control herbicides
registered on cereals including Axial® XL herbicide, Discover® NG herbicide, Everest® 3.0 herbi cide or PowerFlex®
herbicide.
Antagonism generally does not occur. However, FMC advises that yo u first consult your state experiment station,
university, or extension agent, Agricultural dealer, or FMC repr esentative as to the potential for antagonism before using
the mixture. If no information is available, limit the initial use of CHLORMET XP herbicide and the grass product to a
small area.
With Insecticides
CHLORMET XP herbicide may be tank mixed with insecticides registered for use on wheat, barley, and fallow. However,
under certain conditions (drought or cold stress while crop is in the 2- to 4-leaf stage), tank mixtures or sequential
treatments of CHLORMET XP herbicide and organophosphate insectic ides (including methyl or ethyl parathion, or “Di-
Syston”) may produce temporary crop yellowing or, in severe cas es, crop injury. The potential for crop injury is greatest
when there are wide fluctuations in day/night temperatures just prior to or soon after treatment. Read and follow directions
on companion product labels and limit first use to a small area . If no symptoms of crop injury appear, larger acreage can
be treated.
Restrictions:
¾ Do not apply CHLORMET XP herbicide within 60 days of crop emergence whe re an organophosphate
insecticide (including “Di-Syston”) has been applied as an in-furrow treatment, as crop injury may result.
¾ Do not use CHLORMET XP herbicide plus “Malathion”, as crop injury may result.
¾ In the Pacific Northwest, do not use CHLORMET XP herbicide with products containing the active ingredient
chlorpyrifos, as crop injury may result.
19
With Fungicides
CHLORMET XP herbicide may be tank mixed with other fungicide or other fungicides whenever the proper timing for
herbicide and fungicide treatments coincide.
With Liquid Nitrogen Fertilizer Solution
Liquid nitrogen fertilizer solu tions may be used as a carrier i n place of water. Run a tank mix compatibility test before
mixing CHLORMET XP herbicide in fertilizer solution. If 2,4-D or MCPA is included with CHLORMET XP herbicide
and fertilizer mixture, ester formulations tend to be more compatible (See manufacturers label).
If using low rates of liquid nitrogen fertilizer in the spray solution (less than 50% of the spray solution volume), the addition
of surfactant is necessary. When using high rates of liquid nit rogen fertilizer in the spray solution, adding surfactant
increases the risk of crop injury. Consult local specifications for details on surfactant addition.
Restrictions:
¾ DO NOT add surfactant when using CHLORMET XP herbicide in tank mix with 2,4-D ester or MCPA ester and
liquid nitrogen fertilizer solutions.
¾ DO NOT use with liquid fertilizer solutions with a pH less than 3.0.
¾ DO NOT use low rates of liquid fertilizer solution as a substitute for surfactant.
GRAZING
There are no grazing restrictions on CHLORMET XP herbicide.
CROP ROTATION
Before using CHLORMET XP herbicide, carefully consider your crop rotation plans and options. For rotational flexibility,
do not treat all of your wheat, barley, or fallow acres at the same time.
MINIMUM ROTATION INTERVALS
Minimum rotation intervals* are determined by the rate of breakdown of CHLORMET XP herbicide applied. CHLORMET
XP herbicide breakdown in the soil is affected by soil pH, soil temperature, soil microorganisms, and soil moisture. Low
soil pH, high soil temperature, and high soil moisture increase CHLORMET XP herbicide breakdown in soil, while high
soil pH, low soil temperature, and low soil moisture slow CHLORMET XP herbicide breakdown.
Of these three factors, only soil pH remains relatively constant. Soil temperature, and to a greater extent, soil moisture, can
vary significantly from year to year and from area to area. For this reason, soil temperatures and soil moisture must be
monitored regularly when considering rotating to other crops.
* The minimum rotation interval represents the period of time from the last CHLORMET XP herbicide application to the
anticipated date of the next planting.
SOIL pH LIMITATIONS
CHLORMET XP herbicide may not be used on fields having a soil pH above 7.9, as extended soil residual activity could
extend crop rotation intervals beyond those specified in the rotation table, and under certain conditions, could injure wheat
or barley. In addition, other crops planted in high-pH soils can be extremely sensitive to low concentrations of CHLORMET
XP herbicide.
CHLORMET XP herbicide may not be used on soils with a pH below 5. 0, as additional crop stress from low pH and
aluminum toxicity may result in crop injury.
Checking Soil pH
Before using CHLORMET XP herbicide, determine the soil pH of th e field. To obtain a representative pH value, take
s e v e r a l s a m p l e s f r o m d i f f e r e n t a r e a s o f t h e f i e l d b e t w e e n 0 " a nd 4" deep and analyze them separately. Consult local
extension publications for additional information on advised soil sampling procedures.
BIOASSAY
A field bioassay must be completed before rotating to any crop not listed (See the Rotation Intervals table), or if the soil
pH is not in the specified range, or if the use rate applied is n ot s pe c i f i e d i n t h e t a bl e , or i f t h e m in im um cum u l a ti ve
precipitation has not occurred since application.
To conduct a field bioassay, grow test strips of the crop or cr ops you plan to grow the following year in fields previously
treated with CHLORMET XP herbicide. Crop response to the bioassay will indicate whether or not to rotate to the crop(s)
grown in the test strips.
If a field bioassay is planned, check with your local state agr icultural extension service for information detailing the field
bioassay procedure.

* In Idaho, Oregon & Washington for peas and lentils, a field bioassay is required if soil pH is above 6.5
**Under certain conditions (including drought, prolonged cold weather, pH variability in the fields) temporary discoloration and/or crop injury may occur
to sulfonylurea tolerant (STS®) soybeans planted after CHLORMET XP herbicide applications.
***W he re a CA TA ST ROPHI C CROP L OSS has oc curre d afte r a CHL ORMET XP herbicide application due to a natural disaster (including freezing
weather, hail damage, insect damage, disease damage), grain sorghum can be planted at 4 months where the soil pH is 7.3 to 7.5 or sulfonylurea tolerant
(STS®) soybeans where the soil pH is 7.5 to 7.9. These crops wil l have some level of temporary discoloration and/or crop injury if planted at this
reduced interval after CHLORMET XP herbicide application. This potential damage and yield loss is accepted by the grower due to the critical need to
get a crop planted after this emergency.
Growers not willing to accept this level of potential early season crop injury and yield loss must follow the standard rotational guidelines in the table above.
In some cases, this injury may be severe and may affect the crop growth, development, and yield. The severity of the injury increases with higher pH levels,
higher applied CHLORMET XP herbicide rate, drier soil condition s after CHLORMET XP herbicide application and prior to planting the rotational crop,
and the shorter the rotational interval.
†These intervals may also be used for irrigated land. These intervals do not apply to crops grown for seed.
‡Rotation intervals are based on normal precipitation/irrigation amounts. If in a water deficit including a drought, extend rotation intervals until cumulative
rainfall/irrigation reaches the normal range.

APPLICATION INFORMATION
PRODUCT MEASUREMENT
CHLORMET XP herbicide is measured using the CHLORMET XP herbicid e volumetric measuring cylinder. The degree of
accuracy of this cylinder varies by ± 7.5%. For more precise measurement, use scales calibrated in ounces.
MIXING INSTRUCTIONS
1. Fill the tank 1/4 to 1/3 full of water (If using liquid nitro gen fertilizer solution in place of water, see Tank Mixtures se ctions
for additional details).
2. While agitating, add the required amount of CHLORMET XP herbicide.
3. Continue agitation until the CHLORMET XP herbicide is fully dispersed, at least 5 minutes.
4. Once the CHLORMET XP herbicide is fully dispersed, maintain agitation and continue filling tank with water. CHLORMET
XP herbicide needs to be thoroughly mixed with water before adding any other material.
5.As the tank is filling, add tank mix partners (if desired) th en add the necessary volume of nonionic surfactant. Always add
surfactant last.
6. If the mixture is not continuously agitated, settling will occur. If settling occurs, thoroughly re-agitate before using.
7. Apply CHLORMET XP herbicide spray mixture within 24 hours of mixing to avoid product degradation.
8. If CHLORMET XP herbicide and a tank mix partnerare to be appliedin multiple loads, pre-slurry the CHLORMET XP herbicide
in clean water prior to adding to the tank. This will prevent the tank mix par tner from interfering with the dissolution of the
CHLORMET XP herbicide.
Do not use CHLORMET XP herbicide with spray additives that reduce the pH of the spray solution to below 3.0.
APPLICATION METHOD
Ground Application
To obtain optimum spray distribution and thorough coverage, use flat-fan or low-volume flood nozzles.
When using flat-fan nozzles, use a spray volume of at least 3 GPA. When usingflood nozzles on 30" spacings, use at least 10 GPA,
flood nozzles no larger than TK10 (or the equivalent), and a pressure of at least 30 psi. For 40" nozzle spacings, use at least 13 GPA;
for 60" spacings, use at least 20 GPA. It is essential to overlap the nozzles100% for all spacings.
With “Raindrop” RA nozzles,do not use less than 20 GPA and overlap nozzles 100%. Use screens that are 50-mesh orl a r g e r .
Aerial Application
Use nozzle typesand arrangements that provide optimum spraydistribution and maximum coverage at 1 to 5 GPA. Use at least 3 GPA in
Idaho, Oregon and Washington.
When applying CHLORMET XP herbicide by air in areas near sensitive crops, use solid-stream nozzles oriented straight back.
Chemigation
Do not apply CHLORMET XP herbicide through any type of irrigation system.
Before Spraying CHLORMET XP herbicide
Spray equipment must be cleaned before CHLORMET XP herbicide is sprayed. Follow the cleanup procedures specified on the
labels of previously applied products. If no directions are provided, follow the 6 steps outlined below.
26
At the End of the Day
When multiple loads of CHLORMET XP herbicide are applied, it is advised that at the end of each day of spraying, the interior
of the tank be rinsed with fresh water and then partially fille d, and the boom and hoses be flushed. This will prevent the bui ldup
of dried pesticide deposits from accumulating in the application equipment.
After Spraying CHLORMET XP herbicide and before Spraying Crops O ther Than Wheat Barley, Triticale, Fallow, or
CRP
To avoid subsequent injuryto desirable crops,thoroughly cleanall mixingand sprayequipment immediately following applications
ofCHLORMET XP herbicideasfollows:
1. Drain tank; thoroughly rinse spray tanks, boom, and hoses with clean water. Loosen and physically remove any visible deposits.
2. Fill the tank with clean water and 1 gal of household ammonia * (contains at least 3% active ingredient) for every 100 gal of
water. Flush the hoses, boom, and nozzles with the cleaning solution. Then add more water to completely fill the tank. Circulate
the cleaning solution through the tank and hoses for at least 15 min. Flush the hoses, boom, and nozzles again with the cleaning
solution, and then drain the tank.
3. Remove the nozzles and screens and clean separately in a bucket containing ammonia* and water.
4. Repeat step 2.
5. Rinse the tank, boom, and hoses with clean water.
6. If only ammonia is used as a cleaner, the rinsate solution ma y be applied back to the crop(s) advised on this label. Do not
exceed the maximum labeled use rate. If other cleaners are used , consult the cleaner label for rinsate disposal instructions. I f
no instructions are given, dispose of the rinsate on site or at an approved waste disposal facility.
* Equivalent amounts of an alternate-strength ammonia solution o r a cleaner which dissolves and removes sulfonylurea herbicide residues can
be used in the cleanout procedure. Carefully read and follow the individual cleaner instructions.
Notes:
1. Caution: Do not use chlorine bleach with ammonia, as dangerous gases will form. Do not clean equipment in an enclosed
area.
2. Steam-cleaning aerial spray tanks is advised prior to performing the above cleanout procedure to facilitate the removal of a ny
caked deposits.
3. When CHLORMET XP herbicide is tank mixed with other pesticides , examine all required cleanout procedures and follow
the most rigorous procedure.
4. In addition to this cleanout procedure, follow all preapplicat ion cleanout guidelines on subsequently applied products as per
the individual labels.
5. Where routine spraying practices include shared equipment fre quently being switched between applications of CHLORMET
XP herbicide and applications of other pesticides to CHLORMET XP herbicide-sensitive crops during the same spray season,
it is advised that a sprayer be dedicated to CHLORMET XP herbicide to further reduce the chance of crop injury.

MANDATORY SPRAY DRIFT MANAGEMENT
Ground Boom Applications:
• Apply with the nozzle height advised by the manufacturer, but n o more than 3 feet above the ground or crop canopy.
• For applications prior to the emergence of crops and target we eds, applicators are required to use a Coarse or coarser
droplet size (ASABE S572.1).
• For all other applications, applicators are required to use a Medium or coarser droplet size (ASABE S572.1).
• Do not apply when wind speeds exceed 10 miles per hour at the application site.
• Do not apply during temperature inversions.
Aerial Applications:
• Do not release spray at a height greater than 10 feet above the vegetative canopy, unless a greater application height is
necessary for pilot safety.
• For applications prior to the emergence of crops and target we eds, applicators are required to use a Coarse or coarser
droplet size (ASABE S572.1).
• For all other applications, applicators are required to use a Medium or coarser droplet size (ASABE S572.1).
• The boom length must not exceed 65% of the wingspan for airpla nes or 75% of the rotor blade diameter for
helicopters.
• Applicators must use one-half swath displacement upwind at the downwind edge of the field.
• Nozzles must be oriented so the spray is directed toward the back of the aircraft.
• Do not apply when wind speeds exceed 10 miles per hour at the application site.
• Do not apply during temperature inversions.
Boom-less Ground Applications:

SPRAY DRIFT MANAGEMENT ADVISORIES
THE APPLICATOR IS RESPONSIBLE FOR AVOIDING OFF-SITE SPRAY DRIFT .
BE AWARE OF NEARBY NON-TARGET SITES AND ENVIRONMENTAL CONDITION S.
IMPORTANCE OF DROPLET SIZE
An effective way to reduce spray drift is to apply large drople ts. Use the largest droplets that provide target pest control. W hile
applying larger droplets will reduce spray drift, the potential for drift will be greater if applications are made improperly or under
unfavorable environmental conditions.
Controlling Droplet Size Ground Boom
• Volume - Increasing the spray volume so that larger droplets ar e produced will reduce spray drift. Use the highest practical
spray volume for the application. If a greater spray volume is needed, consider using a nozzle with a higher flow rate.
• Pressure - Use the lowest spray pressure advised for the nozzle to produce the target spray volume and droplet size.
• Spray Nozzle - Use a spray nozzle that is designed for the intended application. Consider using nozzles designed to reduce drift.
Controlling Droplet Size Aircraft
• Adjust Nozzles - Follow nozzle manufacturers directions for sett ing up nozzles. Generally, to reduce fine droplets, nozzles
must be oriented parallel with the airflow in flight.
BOOM HEIGHT Ground Boom
Use the lowest boom height that is compatible with the spray nozzles that will provide uniform coverage. For ground equipment,
the boom must remain level with the crop and have minimal bounce.
RELEASE HEIGHT - Aircraft
Higher release heights increase the potential for spray drift. When applying aerially to crops, do not release spray at a height
greater than 10 ft above the crop canopy, unless a greater application height is necessary for pilot safety.
28
SHIELDED SPRAYERS
Shielding the boom or individual nozzles can reduce spray drift. Consider using shielded sprayers. Verify that the shields are not
interfering with the uniform deposition of the spray on the target area.
TEMPERATURE AND HUMIDITY
When making applications in hot and dry conditions, use larger droplets to reduce effects of evaporation.
TEMPERATURE INVERSIONS
Drift potential is high during a temperature inversion. Tempera ture inversions are characterized by increasing temperature with
altitude and are common on nights with limited cloud cover and light to no wind. The presence of an inversion can be indicated
by ground fog or by the movement of smoke from a ground source or an aircraft smoke generator. Smoke that layers and moves
laterally in a concentrated cloud (under low wind conditions) indicates an inversion, while smoke that moves upward and rapidly
dissipates indicates good vertical air mixing. Avoid applications during temperature inversions.
WIND
Drift potential generally increases with wind speed. AVOID APPL ICATIONS DURING GUSTY WIND CONDITIONS.
Applicators need to be familiar with local wind patterns and terrain that could affect spray drift.
HANDHELD TECHNOLOGY APPLICATIONS:
• Take precautions to minimize spray drift.
BOOM-LESS GROUND APPLICATIONS:
Setting nozzles at the lowest effective height will help to reduce the potential for spray drift.
DRIFT CONTROL ADDITIVES
Using product compatible drift control additives can reduce drift potential. When a drift control additive is used, read and carefully
observe cautionary statements and all other information on the additives label. If using an additive that increases viscosity, ensure
that the nozzles and other application equipment will function properly with a viscous spray solution.
Preferred drift control additives have been certified by the Council of Producers & Distributors of Agrotechnology (CPDA).
