|
||
Your Submission Dated June 14,2010 (Submitted as Notification and Converted
|
||
to Amendment by EPA on July 6, 2010)
|
||
Dear Ms. Chan:
|
||
The labeling referred to above, submitted in connection with registration under the
|
||
Federal Insecticide, Fungicide, and Rodenticide Act (FIFRA), as amended, is acceptable,
|
||
provided you make the following changes:
|
||
1. Revise the PPE to clarify that chemical-resistant gloves are required for all handlers of the
|
||
product. As currently written, users might think gloves are only required for exposures to
|
||
the concentrated product. The revised PPE statement should read as follows:
|
||
"All mixers, loaders, applicators, naggers, and other handlers must wear: Long
|
||
sleeved shirt and long pants, shoes plus socks, and chemical-resistant gloves. A
|
||
chemical-resistant apron is also required when mixing or loading, cleaning up spills or
|
||
equipment, or otherwise exposed to the concentrate."
|
||
2. In the second column on page 2 (4th paragraph), revise the sentence "Product should not
|
||
be used in greenhouses" to read "Do not use this product in greenhouses."
|
||
3. On page 4, under Established Pastures and Rangelands, delete the statement "Do not cut
|
||
grass for hay for 30 days after treatment." This statement conflicts with restriction #5 for
|
||
pastures and rangelands at the top of page 5 ("Do not cut forage for hay within 7 days of
|
||
application."). The 7-day PHI is consistent with the requirements of the 2,4-D RED.
|
||
4. On page 5, in the directions for use on Non-Cropland, reduce the maximum rate from 4
|
||
pints per acre to 2.6 pints per acre. The 4 pints per acre rate (3 lbs. a.e.! A) exceeds the
|
||
7
|
||
|
||
('
|
||
'-.
|
||
Page 2 of2
|
||
EPA Reg. No. 19713-337
|
||
maximum use rate allowed by the 2,4-D RED. Note: The maximum rate is correctly
|
||
specified as 2.6 pints/A in the Use Restrictions and Precautions for Non-Cropland.
|
||
5. On page 4, in the first column, in the statement which begins "Compatible crop oil
|
||
concentrates, agricultural surfactants, ... ", change "effective" to "effectiveness" or .
|
||
, "efficacy", so that the sentence reads "Compatible crop oil concentrates, ... may increase
|
||
the herbicidal efficacy (or effectiveness) of2,4-D on certain weeds and may be added to
|
||
the spray tank."
|
||
6. Correct application rate statements throughout the label which don't indicate the area
|
||
covered by the specified amount of product. The incomplete rate statements include the
|
||
following:
|
||
• The rates for soybeans, currently given as "0.5 to 0.6 pint ... " or "0.6 to 1.3 pints ... "
|
||
(depending on the days before planting) should be revised to read "0.5 to 0.6 pint per
|
||
acre ... " and "0.6 to 1.3 pints per acre ... "
|
||
• The rates for grass seed crops: "Apply 0.6 to 2.6 pints of this product ... " should read
|
||
"Apply 0.6 to 2.6 pints of this product per acre ... ". "After the grass is well established,
|
||
higher rates of up to 2.6 pints can be used ... " should read "After the grass is well
|
||
established, higher rates of up to 2.6 pints per acre can be used ... "
|
||
• Restriction #1 in the directions for use on non-cropland: Revise the second sentence to
|
||
read "Do not apply more than 2lbs. ae (2.6 pints of this product) per acre per application.
|
||
A stamped copy of your label is enclosed for your records. This label supersedes all
|
||
previously accepted labels for the subject product. You must submit one (1) copy of the fmal
|
||
printed label before you release the product for shipment. Products shipped after eighteen (18)
|
||
months from the date of this letter or the next printing of the label, whichever occurs first, must
|
||

|
||
subject to cancellation in accordance with FIFRA §6(e). Your release for shipment of the
|
||
product constitutes acceptance of these conditions.

ENVIRONMENTAL HAZARDS
|
||
. This pesticide may be toxic to fish and aquatic invertebrates. 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
|
||
be hazardous to aquatic organisms in water adjacent to treated areas.
|
||
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 shal
|
||
low, may result in groundwater contamination. Application around a
|
||
cistern or well may result in contamination of drinking water or ground
|
||
water.
|
||
USe of this product in certain portions of California, Oregon and Wash
|
||
ington is subject to the January 22, 2004 Order for injunctive relief in
|
||
Washington Toxies Coalition, et. al. v. EPA, C01-0132C,(W.D. WA). Forfur
|
||
ther information, please refer to EPA Web Site: http://www.epa.gov/espp.
|
||
GROUND CONTAMINATION
|
||
Most cases of groundwater contamination involving phenoxy herbi
|
||
cides such as 2,4-0 have been aS,sociated with mixing/loading and
|
||
disposal sites. Caution should be exercised when handling 2,4-0 pes
|
||
ticides at such sites to prevent contamination of groundwater supplies.
|
||
Use of closed systems for mixing or transferring this pesticide will re
|
||
duce the probability of spills. Placement of the mixing/loading eqUip
|
||
ment 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 incon
|
||
sistent with its labeling. Do not apply this product through any type of
|
||
irrigation system. For any requirements specific to your State or Tribe,
|
||
consult the agency responsible for pesticide regulation. Do not apply
|
||
this product in a way that will contact workers or other persons, ei
|
||
ther directly or through drift. Only protected handlers may be in the
|
||
area during application.
|
||
AGRICULTURAL USE REQUIREMENTS
|
||
Use this product only in accordance with its labeling and with the
|
||
. Worker Protection Standard, 40 CFR Part 170. This standard con
|
||
tains requirements for the protection of agricultural workers on
|
||
farms, forests, nurseries, greenhouses and handlers of agricultural
|
||
pesticides. It contains requirements for training, decontamination,
|
||
notification and emergency assistance. It also contains specific in
|
||
structions and exceptions pertaining to the statements on this label
|
||
about person protective equipment (PPE), and restricted entry in
|
||
terval. The requirements in this box only apply to uses of this prod
|
||
uct that are covered by the Worker Protection Standard.
|
||
Do not enter or allow worker entry into treated areas during the re
|
||
stricted entry interval (REI) of 12 ho.urs.
|
||
PPE required for early entty to treated areas that is permitted under
|
||
the Worker Protection Standard and that involves contact with any
|
||
thing that has been treated, such as plants, soil, or water is: Cover
|
||
alls, chemical-resistant gloves made of any waterproof material, and
|
||
shoes plus socks.
|
||
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 for agri
|
||
cultural pesticides (40 CFR Part 170). The WPS applies when this
|
||
product is used to produce agricultural plants on farms, forests,
|
||
nurseries or greenhouses. For use on residential and other turf (ex
|
||
cluding sod farms), do not allow people (other than applicator) or
|
||
pets on treatment area during application. Do not allow people or
|
||
pets to enter treated area until sprays have dried.
|
||
USE INFORMATION
|
||
Performance of this product may be affected by local conditions, crop
|
||
varieties and application method. User should consult local extension
|
||
service. agricultural experiment or university weed specialists and
|
||
state regulatory agencies for recommendations in your area.
|
||
Best results are obtained when product is applied to young succulent
|
||
weeds that are actively growing. Application rates lower than labeled
|
||
rates will be satisfactory on susceptible annual weeds. For perennial
|
||
weeds and conditions such as the very dry areas of the Western
|
||
states, where control is difficult, the higher labeled rates should be
|
||
used. When product is used for weed control in crops, the growth
|
||
stage of the crop must be considered.
|
||
Some plants and weedsC~eCiallY woody varieties, are difficult to
|
||
control and may require repeat applications. Application rates should
|
||
be 1 to 5 gallons of total spray by air or 5 to 25 gallons by ground
|
||
equipment unless otherwise directed. In either case, use the same
|
||
amount of 2,4-0 directed per acre.
|
||
Aerial application should be used only when there is no danger of drift
|
||
to susceptible crops. Many states have regulations conceming aerial
|
||
application of 2,4-0 formulations. Consult local regulatory authorities
|
||
before making applications. Although this product is a low volatile for
|
||
mUlation, at
|
||
temperatures above 95°F vapor may damage susceptible crops grow
|
||
ing nearby. Refer to "Spray Drift Management" section on this label.
|
||
Because coarse sprays are less likely to drift than fine, do not use
|
||
equipment (such as hollow cone small orifice nozzles) or conditions
|
||
(such as high pressure) that produce such sprays.
|
||
Product should not be allowed to come into contact with desirable sus
|
||
ceptible plants such as beans, cotton, fruit trees, grapes, legumes, or
|
||
namentals, peas, tomatoes and other vegetables. Product should not
|
||
be used in greenhouses. Excessive amounts ofthis product in the soil
|
||
may temporarily inhibit seed germination and all plant growth. '.
|
||
Users should note that herbicide treatment of public water require a
|
||
permit from appropriate state agencies in most states. Your State Con
|
||
servation Department or Game and Fish Commission will aid you se
|
||
curing a permit in your state.
|
||
If stored below freezing, it may be necessary to warm product to 40'F and
|
||
agitate before using. This does not affect the efficiency of the product.
|
||
Spray equipment used to apply 2,4-0 should not be used for any other
|
||
purpose until thoroughly cleaned with a suitable chemical cleaner.
|
||
SPRAY DRIFT MANAGEMENT
|
||
A variety of factors including weather conditions (e.g., wind direction,
|
||
wind speed, temperature, 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 adjust
|
||
ments when applying this product.
|
||
Droplet Size:
|
||
When applying sprays that contain 2,4-0 as the sole active ingredi
|
||
ent, or when applying sprays that contain 2,4-0 mixed with active in
|
||
gredients that require a Coarse or coarser spray, apply only as a
|
||
Coarse or coarser spray (ASAE standard 572) or a volume mean di
|
||
ameter of 385 microns or greater for spinning atmozier nozzles.
|
||
When applying sprays that contain 2,4-0 mixed with other active in
|
||
gredients that require a Medium or more fine spray, apply only as a
|
||
Medium or coarser spray (ASAE standard 572) or a volume mean di
|
||
ameter 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, bod
|
||
ies of water, known habitat for nontarget species, nontarget 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 de
|
||
termine if: a) conditions of temperature inversion exist, or b) stable at
|
||
mospheriC 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 ren
|
||
dered unfit for sale, use, or consumption. Susceptible crops include,
|
||
but are not limited to, cotton, okra, flowers, grapes (in growing stage),

• The control of "hybrid" Pigweeds appears to be less satisfactory from 2,4-
|
||
o products than formerly experienced on "non-hybrid" varieties. Since 2,4-0
|
||
herbicides are not as effective on the "hybrid" Pigweeds, it is necessary to
|
||
apply higher rates of 2,4-0 for control, especially later in the growing
|
||
season. Higher rates injure some crops, so less than satisfactory Pigweed
|
||
control may be experienced by the highest tolerated crop dosage.
|
||
CROPS
|
||
SMALL GRAINS NOT UNDERSEEDED WITH LEGUMES
|
||
(barley, oats, wheat, rye):
|
||
See the following table for use rates. Spray when weeds are small
|
||
after grain begins tillering but before boot stage (usually 4 to 8 inches
|
||
tall). To control larger weeds that will interfere with harvest or to sup
|
||
press perennial weeds, preharvest treatment can be applied when the
|
||
grain is in the dough stage. Be'st results will be obtained when soil
|
||
moisture is adequate for plant growth and weeds are growing well.
|
||
Use Restrictions and Precautions:
|
||
1. Do not apply before the tiller stage nor from early boot through milk
|
||

|
||
stage. (.
|
||
2. Limit to one postemerg,--._~ application per crop cycle. Do not apply
|
||
more than 1.25 Ibs. ae (1.6 pints of this product) per acre per ap
|
||
plication.
|
||
3. Limit to one preharvest application per crop cycle. Do not apply
|
||
more than 0.51b ae (0.6 pints of this product) per acre per applica
|
||
tion.
|
||
4. Limit to 1.75 Ibs. ae (2.3 pints of this product) per acre per crop
|
||
cycle.
|
||
5. The preharvest interval (PHI) is 14 days.
|
||
Spring Planted Oats: Use 0.3 pint per acre in sufficient water to give
|
||
good coverage. Apply after the fully tiIIered stage, except during the
|
||
boot to dough stage.
|
||
Fall Planted Oats: Apply 0.2 to 1.8 pints per acre after full tillering but
|
||
before early boot stage. Some difficult weeds may require higher rates
|
||
of 0.5 to 0.8 pints per acre for maximum control, but crop injury may
|
||
result. Do not spray during or immediately following cold weather .
|
||
Note: Oats are less tolerant to 2,4-0 than wheat or barley and more
|
||
likely to be injured. Do not forage or graze treated grain fields within 2
|
||
weeks after treatment with 2,4-0. Do not feed treated straw to live
|
||
stock.
|
||
CORN (Field, Pop, Sweet):
|
||
See the following table for use rates.
|
||
Use Restrictions and Precautions:
|
||
1. Limit to one preplant or pre emergence application per crop cycle.
|
||
Do not apply more than 1 lb. ae (1.3 pints of this product) per acre
|
||
per application.
|
||
2. Limit to one postemergence application per crop cycle. Do not apply
|
||
more than 0.5 lb. ae (0.6 pint of this product) per acre per applica
|
||
tion.
|
||
3. For Field and Pop corn, limit to one preharvest application per crop
|
||
cycle. Do not apply more than 1.5 Ibs. ae (2 pints of this product) per
|
||
acre per application. Do not apply more than 3lbs. ae (4 pints of this
|
||
product) per acre per crop cycle.
|
||
4. For Sweet corn, do not apply more than 1.5 Ibs. ae (2 pints of this
|
||
product) per acre per crop cycle. Do not apply less than 21 days
|
||
between applications.
|
||
5. The preharvest interval (PHI) is 7 days for Field and Pop corn. For
|
||
Sweet corn, the PHI is 45 days.
|
||
6. Do not use treated crop as fodder for 7 days following application.
|
||
Preemergence: Apply this product from 3 to 5 days after planting but
|
||
before corn emerges. Do not use on very light, sandy soils. Use the
|
||
higher rates on heavy soils. Plant corn as deep as practical.
|
||
Postemergence: Best results are usually obtained when weeds are
|
||
small and corn is 4 to 18 inches tall. When corn is over 8 inches tall,
|
||
use drop nozzles. Do not apply from tasseling to dough stage. If corn
|
||
is growing rapidly and temperature and soil moisture content is high,
|
||
use 0.33 pint per acre rate to reduce possibility of crop damage. Delay
|
||
CUltivation for 8 to 10 days to prevent stalk breakage due to temporary
|
||
brittleness caused by 2,4-0. Application rates of up to 0.66 pint per
|
||
acre may be used to control some hard to kill weeds. However, the
|
||
possibility of injury to corn is increased.
|
||
If corn is over 8 inches tall, use drop nozzles to keep spray off corn fo
|
||
liage as much as possible. Do not use with oil, atrazine, or other ad
|
||
juvants. Since the tolerance to 2,4-0 of individual hybrids varies,
|
||
consult your Local Extension Service or Agricultural Experiment Sta
|
||
tion or University Weed Specialist for information.
|
||
Preharvest: After the hard dough or denting stage, apply 0.66 to 1.25
|
||
pints per acre of this product by air or ground equipment to suppress
|
||
perennial weeds, decrease weed seed production and control tall
|
||
weeds such as bindweed, cocklebur, dogbane, jimsonweed, ragweed,
