Keep and wash PPE separately from other laundry.
See engineering controls for additional requirements.
Engineering controls:
When handlers use closed systems, 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) (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:
• Wash hands 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.
• 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 may be toxic to fish, aquatic invertebrates and aquatic plants. 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 affect non-target plants and be hazardous to aquatic
organisms in water adjacent to treated areas. Runoff of this product will be reduced by avoiding applications when rainfall is forecasted to
occur within 48 hours. 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.
Groundwater Contamination:
Most cases of groundwater contamination involving phenoxy herbicides such as MCPA have been associated with mixing/loading an d
disposal sites. Caution should be exercised when handling MCPA pesticides at such sites to prevent contamination of groundwat er
supplies. Use of closed systems for mixing and 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.
Cleaning of Equipment: When cleaning equipment, do not pour washwater on the ground; spray or drain over a large area away from
wells and other water sources.

requirements for the protection of agricultural workers on farms, forests, nurseries, and greenhouses, and handlers of agricu ltural
pesticides. It contains requirements for training, decontamination, notification, and emergency assistance. It also contains specific
instructions and exceptions pertaining to the statements on this label about personal protective equipment (PPE) and restricted-entry
interval. The requirements in this box only apply to uses of this product that are covered by the Worker Protection Standard.
Do not enter or allow worker entry into treated areas during the restricted entry interval (REI) of 48 hours.
PPE required for early entry to treated areas that is permitted under the Worker Protection Standard and that involves contact with
anything that has been treated, such as plants, soil, or water, is:
• Coveralls,
• Chemical-resistant gloves made of any waterproof material,
• Shoes plus socks,
• Protective eyewear.
NON-AGRICULTURAL USE REQUIREMENTS
The requirements in this box apply to uses of this product that are NOT within the scope of the Worker Protection Standard fo r
agricultural pesticides (40 CFR Part 170). The WPS applies when this product is used to produce agricultural plants on farms, forests,
nurseries, or greenhouses.
Do not allow people (other than applicator) or pets on treatment area during application.
Do not enter or allow others to enter treated areas until sprays have dried.
PRODUCT INFORMATION
This product is an amine salt formulation of MCP (2 -Methyl-4-chlorophenoxyacetic acid), a selective herbicide similar to 2,4 -D. Certain
crops, such as flax, oats, and rice appear to be more tolerant of MCP than 2,4-D, and some weeds such as mustard and Canada thistle
are more easily controlled by MCP than 2,4-D.
Generally, the lower dosages listed 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. Use moderate spray pressure (20.0 pounds) and
enough spray volume for good coverage, usually 5.0 to 20.0 gallons per acre by ground equipment and at least 2.0 to 5.0 gallo ns per
acre by air. Higher spray volumes may be useful in some situations to provide better spray coverage of weed foliage and to reduce spray
drift. The use of adjuvants such as wetting agents may increase herbicidal effectiveness but may also decrease selectivity.
Agitation is helpful to assure uniform mixing, but is not necessary after the product has been completely dispersed. Use of t his product
may be governed in certain areas by local regulations. MCP produces best results when applied to weeds growing rapidly. Thorough
coverage is important. Lack of moisture may cause less effective control. Some perennial weeds may require repeat treatment f or control. Treat
such weeds at bud stage if this occurs during a period when crop is not unduly susceptible.
RESTRICTIONS
• DO NOT apply this product through any type of irrigation system.
• Extreme care must be used when applying MCP to prevent injuring desirable plants and crops.
• MCP must not be applied in the vicinity of susceptible crops such as cotton, tomatoes, vegetables, grapes, fruit trees, soybeans,
tobacco and beans.
• DO NOT allow spray mist to drift on to such plants, since even minute quantities of spray may cause severe injury.
• DO NOT use in greenhouses.
• DO NOT use in any manner other than recommended on the label to avoid possible crop injury or illegal residues at harvest.
• Read and carefully observe the cautionary statements and all other information appearing on labeling of all products used in mixtures.
• DO NOT contaminate water used for irrigation, domestic or spray purposes.
• DO NOT contaminate seed, feed, foodstuffs, fertilizers, insecticides or fungicides.
[MCP AMINE 4
EPA REG. NO. 34704-130]
[5]
PRECAUTIONS
• Large amounts of MCP in the soil may temporarily inhibit seed germination.
• It is best to use a separate sprayer for application of MCP herbicides. If the same sprayer must be used for other crop spraying, it must
be flushed thoroughly with water immediately after use. Next, fill equipment with water containing 1.0 volume of household ammonia
to 100 volumes of water, and allow to stand for 1 day. Then flush equipment thoroughly, including hoses and nozzles, several times
with water.
SPRAY DRIFT MANAGEMENT
Avoiding spray drift at the application site is the responsibility of the applicator. The interaction of many equipment - and weather-
related factors determine the potential for spray drift. The applicator and the grower are responsible for considering all these factors
when making decisions.
Apply only as a medium or coarser spray (ASAE standard 572) or a volume mean diameter of 300 microns or greater for spinning
atomizer nozzles.
Apply only when the wind speed is 2 to 10 mph at the application site.
For groundboom applications, do not apply with a nozzle height greater than 4 feet above the crop canopy.
Aerial Applications: 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. Do not release spray at a height greater thatthan 10 feet
above the crop canopy.
When applications are made with a crosswind, the swath will be displaced downwind. The applicator must compensate for this
displacement at the downwind edge of the application area by adjusting the path of the aircraft upwind.
Do not make applications into temperature inversions.
PREPARING THE SPRAY: Mix MCP Amine 4 with water, unless otherwise directed on this label. Fill the mixing tank or spray tank about
half full with water, then add the required amount of this product with agitation. NOTE: Adding oil, wetting agent or other s urfactant to the
spray may reduce selectivity to crops, possibly resulting in crop injury.
