|
||
PRN 98-10 and finds that the action requested falls within the scope of PRN 98-10.
|
||
|
||
The labeling submitted with this application has been stamped “Notification” and will be placed in our
|
||
records. You must submit one (1) copy of the final printed labeling with the modifications.
|
||
|
||
Should you wish to add/retain a reference to your 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 EPA. If the website is false or misleading, the product will be
|
||
considered to be misbranded and sale or distribution of the product is unlawful under FIFRA section
|
||
12(a)(1)(E). 40 CFR § 156.10(a)(5) lists examples of statements the 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 EPA 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 Enforcement and Compliance Assurance.
|
||

|
||
big gun, solid set or hand move irrigation systems. Do not apply this product through any other type of
|
||
irrigation system.
|
||
Crop injury, lack of effectiveness, or illegal pesticide residues in the crop can result from non-uniform distribution of treated
|
||
water.
|
||
|
||
If you have questions about calibration, you should contact State Extension Service Specialists, equipment manufacturers
|
||
or other experts.
|
||
|
||
Do not connect an irrigation system (including greenhouse systems) used for pesticide application to a
|
||
public water system unless the pesticide label prescribed safety devices for public water systems are in
|
||
place.
|
||
|

A person knowledgeable of the chemigation system and responsible for its operation, or under
|
||
supervision of the responsible person, shall shut the system down and make necessary adjustments
|
||
should the need arise.
|
||
CHEMIGATION SYSTEMS CONNECTED TO PUBLIC WATER SYSTEMS
|
||
Public water system means a system for the provision to the public of piped water for human consumption, if such system
|
||
has at least 15 service connections or regularly serves an average of at least 25 individuals daily at least 60 days out of the
|
||
year.
|
||
|
||
Chemigation systems connected to public water systems must contain a functional, reduced-pressure
|
||
zone, backflow preventer (RPZ) or the functional equivalent in the water supply line upstream from the
|
||
point of pesticide introduction. As an option to the PRZ, the water from the public water system should be
|
||
discharged into a reservoir tank prior to pesticide introduction. There shall be a complete physical break
|
||
(air gap) between the outlet and the fill pipe in the top or overflow rim of the reservoir tank of at least
|
||
twice the inside diameter of the fill pipe.
|
||
The pesticide injection pipeline must contain a functional , automatic, quick-closing check valve to prevent
|
||
the flow of fluid back toward the injection pump.
|
||
|
||
The pesticide injection pipeline must contain a functional, normally closed, solenoid-operated valve
|
||
located on the intake side of the injection pump and connecte d to the system interlock to prevent fluid
|
||
from being withdrawn from the supply tank when the irrigation system is either automatically or manually
|
||
shut down.
|
||
|
||
The system must contain functional interlocking controls to automatically shut off the pesticide injection
|
||
pump when the pump motor stops, or in cases where th ere is no water pump, when the water pressure
|
||
decreases to the point where pesticide distribution is adversely affected.
|
||
Systems must use a metering pump, such as a po sitive displa cement injection pump (e.g. diaphragm
|
||
pump) effectively designed and constructed of mate rials that are compatible with the pesticides and
|
||
capable of being fitted with a system interlock.
|
||
|
||
Do not apply when wind speed favors drift beyond the area intended for treatment.

|
||
should be applied at the end of the water application.
|
||
|
||
ASSET® PGR should be applied at the end of the irrigation period in a sufficient amount of water to allow
|
||
proper coverage of plant or crop but not to exceed 12 fluid ounces of ASSET® PGR per acre per
|
||
application.
|
||
SPRINKLER CHEMIGATION
|
||
The system must contain a functional check valv e, vacuum relief valve, and low pressure drain
|
||
appropriately located on the irrigation pipeline to prevent water source contamination from backflow.

|
||
shut down.
|
||
The system must contain functional interlocking controls to automatically shut off the pesticide injection
|
||
pump when the water pump motor stops.
|
||
|
||
The irrigation line or water pump must include a functional pressure switch which will stop the water pump motor when the
|
||
water pressure decreases to a point where pesticide distribution is adversely affected.
|
||
|
||
System must use a metering pump, such as a positive displacement injection pump (e.g. diaphragm
|
||
pump) effectively designed and constructed of materi als that are compatible wi th pesticides and capable
|
||
of being fitted with a system interlock.
|
||
|
||
Do not apply when wind speed favors drift beyond the area intended for treatment.
|
||

|
||
SPRAY MIX COMPATIBILITY
|
||
ASSET® PGR is compatible with a wide range of fertilizer and pesticide products. Good agitation must be maintained for
|
||
those applications that contain pesticides.
|
||
|
||
Always check compatibility prior to mixing and apply any pesticide spray mixes as soon as possible. In the event of
|
||
pesticide mixing problems, the addition of a compatibility agent is recommended.
|
||
|
||
If this product is to be tank mixed with fertilizers or with other pesticides, compatibility should be tested prior to mixing. To
|
||
test for compatibility, use a small container and mix a small amount (0.5 to 1 quart) of spray, combining all ingredients in the
|
||
same ration as the anticipated use. If any indications of physical incompatibility develop; such as separation, sedimentation,
|
||
gel formation, etc., do not use this mixture for spraying. Indications of incompatibility usually will appear within 5 to 15
|
||
minutes after mixing.
