Image rebuild (skip scrape) / build (push) Failing after 1h37m12s
Dockerfile: self-contained image with corpus + Chroma + BM25 baked in. Drawbar's compose pulls + runs without volume mounts. Built from sources.json (labels schema), PRODUCT_NAME=crop_chem by default, HYBRID_SEARCH=true (always-on for production quality). RERANK_URL + OLLAMA_URL get set at compose time. .gitea/workflows/refresh.yml: monthly cron (1st @ 06:00 UTC) does full scrape → reindex → image push. Scrapes Bayer (~30 min) + EPA PPLS row-crop filtered (~7h). Skips reindex+push if no corpus diff. Tags pushed: :latest, :<sha12>, :corpus-<YYYY.MM.DD>. .gitea/workflows/image-only.yml: on-demand or auto on code-only pushes to main (paths: docs_mcp/, rag/, scrape/, requirements.txt, Dockerfile, sources.json). Reindexes from committed corpus, builds image, pushes. ~10 min vs ~9h full refresh. .gitignore: corpus/ now COMMITTED (4,159 labels, 265 MB of .md + sidecars). Lets image-only.yml rebuild indexes without re-scraping. chroma/ + bm25/ still gitignored (regenerable binary indexes). .dockerignore: drops venv, eval results, PLAN/README/CLAUDE.md, deploy/, .git/ — keeps the image lean. corpus + chroma + bm25 explicitly NOT in dockerignore (those go INTO the image).

Dear Ms. Erding:
|
||
|
||
The amended label referred to above, submitted in connection with registration under the Federal
|
||
Insecticide, Fungicide and Rodenticide Act, as amended, is acceptable. This approval does not
|
||
affect any conditions that were previously imposed on this registration. You continue to be
|
||
subject to existing conditions on your registration and any deadlines connected with them.
|
||
|
||
A stamped copy of your labeling is enclosed for your records. This labeling supersedes all
|
||
previously accepted labeling. You must submit one copy of the final printed labeling before you
|
||
release the product for shipment with the new labeling. In accordance with 40 CFR 152.130(c),
|
||
you may distribute or sell this product under the previously approved labeling for 18 months
|
||
from the date of this letter. After 18 months, you may only distribute or sell this product if it
|
||
bears this new revised labeling or subsequently approved labeling. “To distribute or sell” is
|
||
defined under FIFRA section 2(gg) and its implementing regulation at 40 CFR 152.3.
|
||
|
||
Should you wish to add/retain a reference to the company’s website on your label, then please be
|
||
aware that the website becomes labeling under the Federal Insecticide Fungicide and Rodenticide
|
||
Act and is subject to review by the Agency. If the website is false or misleading, the product
|
||
would be misbranded and unlawful to sell or distribute under FIFRA section 12(a)(1)(E). 40
|
||
CFR 156.10(a)(5) list examples of statements 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 Agency 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.
|
||
|
||
Your release for shipment of the product constitutes acceptance of these conditions. If these
|
||
conditions are not complied with, the registration will be subject to cancellation in accordance

|
||
Engineering controls statement:
|
||
If this container contains 5 gallons or more in capacity, do not pour product from this container. A mechanical system (pump
|
||
and probe or spigot) must be used in transferring the contents of this container. If the contents of a non-refillable pesticide
|
||
container are emptied, the probe must be rinsed before removal. If the mechanical system is used in a manner that meets the
|
||
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)].
|
||
When handlers use closed systems, enclosed cabs, or aircraft, in a manner that meets the 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.
|
||
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 product may be toxic to fish and aquatic invertebrates. For terrestrial uses: Do not apply directly to water, to areas where
|
||
surface water is present, or to intertidal areas below the mean high water mark except as noted elsewhere on this label. Drift
|
||
and runoff may be hazardous to aquatic invertebrates and non-target plants in water adjacent to treated areas. Do not
|
||
contaminate water when disposing of equipment washwaters or rinsate.
|
||
For aquatic uses: 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.
|
||
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.
|
||
|
||
3
|
||
Application around a cistern or well may result in contamination of drinking water or groundwater.
|
||
Most cases of groundwater contamination involving phenoxy herbicide such as 2,4-D have been associated with mixing/loading
|
||
and disposal sites. Caution should be exercised when handling 2,4- D pesticides at such sites to prevent contamination of
|
||
groundwater supplies. Use of closed systems for mixing and transferring this pesticide will reduce the probability of spills.
|
||
Placement of mixing/loading equipment on an impervious pad to contain spills will help prevent groundwater contamination.
|
||
DIRECTIONS FOR USE
|
||
It is a violation of Federal Law to use this product in a manner inconsistent with its label. Do not apply this product in a way
|
||
that will contact workers or other persons, either directly or through drift. Only protected handlers may be in the area during
|
||
application. For any requirements specific to your State or Tribe, consult the agency responsible for pesticide regulation.
|
||
Use 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. WA). For further information, please
|
||
refer to EPA Web Site: http://www.epa.gov/espp.
|
||

|
||
USE DIRECTIONS
|
||
Unless noted otherwise under individual DIRECTIONS section, for aerial application, apply the specified amount in a minimum
|
||
of 2 gallons of water per acre. For ground application, apply the specified amount in a minimum of 5 gallons of water per acre.
|
||
Use more water for both methods when adverse growing conditions are present.
|
||
|
||
5
|
||
Band Treatment: If only bands or rows are treated, leaving middles untreated, the dosage and spray volume per crop acre are
|
||
reduced proportionately. For example, treating a 12-inch band where the row spacing is 36 inches would require 1/3 of the
|
||
recommended broadcast rate per acre (12 inches divided by 36 inches = 1/3).
|
||
acrepervolumeBandacrepervolumeBroadcastXinchesinwidthRow
|
||
inchesinwidthBand
|
||
DO NOT apply with high spray pressures, hollow cone or other nozzle types that produce small spray droplets which may drift.
|
||
Avoid spray drift by making applications when conditions such as wind, air stability and temperature inversions are not a factor.
|
||
The use of a suitable drift control agent at the proper rate will aid in the reduction of spray drift. Apply when weather is warm
|
||
and plants are rapidly growing. Cold weather or dry conditions may cause poor results. DO NOT apply if rain is expected within
|
||
6 hours. Consult your local agronomist or Extension specialist for specific use and crop tolerance situations. Do not apply this
|
||
product through any type of irrigation system.
|
||
RESISTANCE MANAGEMENT
|
||
2,4-D Amine 4 is a Group 4 herbicide. Any weed population may contain or develop plants naturally resistant to 2,4-D
|
||
Amine 4 or other Group 4 herbicides. Weed species with acquired resistance to Group 4 may eventually dominate the
|
||
weed population if Group 4 herbicides are used repeatedly in the same field or in successive years as the primary method
|
||
of control for targeted species. This may result in partial or total loss of control of those species by 2,4-D Amine 4 or other
|
||
Group 4 herbicides.
|
||
To delay herbicide resistance consider:
|
||
x Avoiding the consecutive use of 2,4-D Amine 4 or other target site of action Group 4 herbicides that have a similar
|
||
target site of action, on the same weed species.
|
||
x Using tank-mixtures or premixes with herbicides from different target site of action Groups as long as the involved
|
||
products are all registered for the same use, have different sites of action, and are both effective at the tank mix or
|
||
prepack rate on the weed(s) of concern.
|
||
x Basing herbicide use on a comprehensive IPM program.
|
||
x Monitoring treated weed populations for loss of field efficacy.
|
||
x Contacting your local extension specialist, certified crop advisors, and/or Winfield Solutions, LLC representative for
|
||
herbicide resistance management and/or integrated weed management recommendations for specific crops and
|
||
resistant weed biotypes.
|
||
TANK MIXES
|
||
It is the pesticide user’s responsibility to ensure that all products used in tank mixtures are registered for the intended use.
|
||
Users must follow the most restrictive directions for use and precautionary statements of each product in the tank mixture.
|
||
SPRAY DRIFT MANAGEMENT
|
||
A variety of factors including weather conditions (e.g., wind direction, wind speed, temperature, and relative humidity) and
|
||
method of application (e.g., ground, aerial, airblast, chemigation) 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 active 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 (ASAE standard 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, residential areas, bodies of water, known habitat for non-target
|
||
|
||
6
|
||
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.
|
||
Susceptible Plants
|
||
Do not apply under circumstances where spray drift may occur to food, forage, or other plantings that might be damaged or
|
||
crops thereof rendered unfit for sale, use or consumption. Susceptible crops include, but are not limited to, cotton, okra,
|
||
flowers, grapes (in growing stage), fruit trees (foliage), soybeans (vegetative stage), ornamentals, sunflowers, tomatoes, beans,
|
||
and other vegetables, or tobacco. Small amounts of spray drift that might 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.
|
||
Additional requirements for 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 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.
|
||
When applications are made with a crosswind, the swath will be displaced downwind. The applicator must compensate for this
|

MIXING INSTRUCTIONS
|
||
WATER BASED SPRAY-- Fill the equipment half full of water, agitate while adding this product; then add the rest of the water.
|
||
NITROGEN FERTILIZER: Weed and feed applications for corn, small grains, grasses grown for seed or grass pastures
|
||
according to label use rates. Add half the fertilizer to the tank, and then add recommended label amount of 2,4-D Amine 4 per
|
||
acre. Agitate constantly and vigorously and finish filling the spray tank with fertilizer. Apply as soon as possible, agitating
|
||
constantly. Do not hold spray mixture overnight. If incompatibility is a problem, the use of COMPLETE COMPATIBILITY
|
||
® agent
|
||
at the recommended label rate may correct the problem. Fertilize according to the recommendations of your supplier or your
|
||
Extension specialist. Herbicide foliage contact burning may occur as a result of fertilizer use. Lower use rates and
|
||
concentrations will reduce this problem.
|
||
Adjuvants for Preemergence and Preplant Applications: A non-ionic surfactant such as PREFERENCE
|
||
® or a crop oil
|
||
concentrate may be added to the spray solution when this product is applied preemergence or preplant to increase control of
|
||
large or difficult to control weeds. Crop oil concentrates must contain at least 17% emulsifier, and should be used at 1%
|
||
volume/volume (1 gallon per 100 gallons of spray solution). Non-ionic surfactants should be used at a 0.25% volume/volume (1
|
||
quart per 100 gallons of spray solution). Wash spray equipment thoroughly with PROTANK® cleaner after using this product.
|
||
When cleaning, do not pour washwater on the ground: spray or drain over a large area away from wells or other water sources.
|
||
Apply the recommended amount of 2,4-D per acre regardless of the amount of diluent used.
|
||
When an adjuvant is to be used with this product, Winfield Solutions, LLC recommends the use of a Chemical Producers
|

acre.
|
||
SPRAYING INSTRUCTIONS
|
||
Do not apply to more than 1/3 to 1/2 of the water area in any one month because excessive decaying vegetation may deplete
|
||
oxygen content of water and kill fish. 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. Begin treatments
|
||
along the shore and proceed outwards in bands to allow fish to move into untreated areas. For large bodies of weed infested
|
||
waters, leave buffer strips of at least 100 feet wide and delay treatment of these strips for 4 to 5 weeks or until the dead
|
||
vegetation has decomposed. Repeat as necessary to kill regrowth and plants missed in previous application.

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 or more days following
|
||
application shows that the concentration in the water is less than 70 ppb (100 ppb for irrigation or sprays), 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 not more than 70 ppb 2,4-D (100 ppb for irrigation or
|
||
sprays).
|
||
Application Date: ______ Time: _____ .
|
||
D. Following each application of this product, treated water must not be used for drinking water unless one of the

1. Treating the entire area when the weed mass is sparse and the rate of decomposition will not be sufficient to disturb the
|
||
water-oxygen ratio: or
|
||
2. If application is delayed until there is a dense weed mass, treat no more than one-half of a lake or pond at one time. For
|
||
large bodies of weed-infested water, apply product in lanes, leaving buffers strips at least 100 feet wide which can be treated in
|
||
4 to 5 weeks or when vegetation in treated lanes has decomposed. During the growing season, decomposition of treated strips
|
||
will usually occur in 2 to 3 weeks.

RESTRICTIONS AND LIMITATIONS FOR APPLICATIONS TO SUBMERSED AQUATIC WEEDS:
|
||
• Apply to aquatic weeds in ponds, lakes, reservoirs, marshes, bayous, drainage ditches, non-irrigation canals, rivers, and
|
||
streams that are quiescent or slow moving.
|
||
• Do not treat areas that are not infested with aquatic weeds.
|
||
|
||
20
|
||
• When treating moving bodies of water, applications must be made while traveling upstream to prevent concentration of 2,4-D
|
||
downstream from the application.
|
||
• Do not exceed 10.8 Ib. (22.7 pints of 2,4-D Amine 4) of acid equivalent per acre foot of treated water per application.
|
||
• Do not apply within 21 days of previous application.
|
||
• Do not make more than 2 applications per season.
|
||
• Coordination and approval of local and state authorities may be required, either by a letter of agreement or issuance of special
|
||
permits for aquatic applications.
|
||
• Do not apply within 1500 ft of an active potable or irrigation water intake.
|
||
• Do not apply when wind speed is at or above 10 mph when making ground or surface applications. Do not aerially apply when
|
||
wind speed is greater than 5 mph. Wind speed restrictions do not apply for subsurface applications used in submerged aquatic
|
||
weed control programs.
|
||
• Unless an approved assay indicates that the 2,4-D concentration is 100 ppb (0.1 ppm) acid or less, do not use water from
|
||
treated areas for;
|
||
1) irrigation other than non-crop areas or those crops or plants labeled for direct application of 2,4-D; or
|
||
2) mixing sprays for agricultural or ornamental plants.
|
||
• Unless an approved assay indicates that the 2,4-D concentration is 70 ppb (0.07 ppm) acid or less, do not use water from
|
||
treated areas for potable water (drinking water).
|
||
• Except as stated above, there are no restrictions on use of water from treated areas for fishing, watering of livestock, or other
|
||
domestic purposes.
|
||
Water Use following applications to submersed aquatic weeds:
|
||
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 pastures, turf or cereal grains, the treated water may be used to irrigate and/or mix sprays for these sites
|
||
at anytime after the 2,4-D aquatic application.
|
||
B. Due to potential phytotoxicity considerations 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, noncrop
|
||
areas or other plants not labeled for direct treatment with 2,4-D, the water must not be used
|
||
unless one of the following restrictions has been observed:
|
||
i. A setback distance described in Table 2, Drinking Water Setback Table was used for the
|
||
application, or,
|
||
ii. A waiting period of 21 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. See
|
||
Table 3 for the waiting period after application but before taking the initial sampling at water intake.
|
||
2. Drinking water (potable water):
|
||
A. Consult with appropriate state 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 Level) 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 submersed weed applications, the drinking water setback distances from functioning potable water intakes are
|
||
provided in Table 2, Drinking Water Setback Distance (below).
|
||
C. If no setback distance from the Drinking Water Setback Table (Table 2) is to be used for the application, applicators
|
||
or the authorizing organization must provide a drinking water notification and an advisory to shut off all potable water
|
||
intakes prior to a 2,4-D application. Notification to the par ty 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 the water use restrictions when
|
||
this product is applied to potable water.
|
||
The following is an example of a 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 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 should include the day and
|
||
time of application. Posting may be removed if analysis of a sample collected at the intake no sooner than stated in
|
||
Table 3 (below) shows that the concentration in the water is less than 70 ppb (100 ppb for irrigation or sprays), or
|
||
|
||
21
|
||
after 21 days following application, whichever occurs first.
|
||
Text of notification: Wait 21 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 no sooner
|
||
than (insert days from Table 3) and is demonstrated by assay to contain not more than 70 ppb 2,4-D (100 ppb for
|
||
irrigation or sprays).
|
||
Application Date: ____ Time _____
|
||
D. Following each application of this product, treated water must not be used for drinking water unless one of the
|
||
following restrictions has been observed:
|
||
i. A setback distance described in the Drinking Water Setback Distance Table was used for the application, or,
|
||
ii. A waiting period of at least 21 days from the time of application has elapsed, or,
|
||
iii. An approved assay indicates that the 2,4-D concentration is 70 ppb (0.07 ppm) or less
|
||
at the water intake. Sampling for drinking water analysis should occur no sooner than
|
||
stated in Table 3. Analysis of samples must be completed by a laboratory that is certified
|
||
under the Safe Drinking Water Act to perform drinking water analysis using a currently
|
||
approved version of analytical Method Number 515, 555, other methods for 2,4-D as may be listed in Title 40
|
||
CFR, Part 141.24, or Method Number 4015 (immunoassay of 2,4-D) from U.S. EPA Test Methods for
|
||
Evaluating Solid Waste SW-846.
|
||
E. Note: Existing potable water intakes that are no longer in use, such as those replaced by a connection to a municipal
|
||
water system or a potable water well, are not considered to be functioning potable water intakes.
|
||
F. Drinking water setback distances do not apply to terrestrial applications of 2,4-D adjacent to water bodies with
|
||
potable water intakes.
|
||
3. Except as stated above, there are no restrictions on using water from treated areas for swimming, fishing,
|
||
