PRECAUTIONARY STATEMENTS <br />HAZARDS TO HUMANS AND DOMESTIC ANIMALS <br />CAUTION <br />Avoid contact with skin, eyes, or clothing. Harmful if swallowed. Harmful if absorbed through skin. Causes moderate eye <br />irritation. Prolonged or frequently repeated skin contact may cause allergic reactions in some individuals. Avoid inhaling <br />vapor or spray mist. <br />PERSONAL PROTECTIVE EQUIPMENT <br />Some materials that are chemical-resistant to this product are listed below. If you want more options, follow the instructions <br />for category F on an EPA chemical resistance category selection chart. <br />All mixers, loaders, applicators, flaggers and other handlers must wear: <br />x long-sleeved shirt and long pants, <br />x shoes and socks, plus <br />x chemical resistant gloves, such as Barrier Laminate, Nitrile Rubber, Neoprene Rubber, or Viton. <br />x chemical resistant apron when applying postharvest dips or sprays to citrus, mixing or loading, cleaning up spills or <br />equipment, or otherwise exposed to the concentrate. <br />See Engineering Controls for additional requirements. <br />User Safety Requirements <br />Follow manufacturer's instructions for cleaning/maintaining PPE. If no such instructions for washables exist, use detergent <br />and hot water. Keep and wash PPE separately from other laundry. <br />Engineering Controls: <br />Pilots must use an enclosed cockpit that meets the requirements listed in WPS for agricultural pesticides [40 CFR 170.240 <br />(d)(6)]. <br />USER SAFETY RECOMMENDATIONS <br />Users should wash hands before eating, drinking, chewing gum, using tobacco or using the toilet. <br />Users should remove clothing immediately if pesticide gets inside. Then wash thoroughly and put on clean clothing. <br />Users should remove PPE immediately after handling this product. Wash the outside of gloves before removing. As soon as <br />possible, wash thoroughly and change into clean clothing. <br />ENVIRONMENTAL HAZARDS <br />This product may be toxic to fish and aquatic invertebrates. Do not apply directly to water, or to areas where surface water <br />is present or to intertidal areas below the mean high water mark. Drift or runoff may be hazardous to aquatic organisms in <br />water adjacent to treated areas. Do not contaminate water when disposing of equipment washwaters or rinsate. <br />This chemical has properties and characteristics associated with chemicals detected in groundwater. The use of this <br />chemical in areas where soils are permeable, particularly where the water table is shallow, may result in groundwater <br />contamination. Application around a cistern or well may result in contamination of drinking water or groundwater. <br />GROUNDWATER CONTAMINATION <br />Most cases of groundwater contamination involving phenoxy herbicides such as 2,4-D have been associated with <br />mixing/loading and disposal sites. Caution should be exercised when handling 2,4-D pesticides at such sites to prevent <br />contamination of groundwater supplies. Use of closed systems for mixing or transferring this pesticide will reduce the <br />probability of spills. Placement of the mixing/loading equipment on an impervious pad to contain spills will help prevent <br />groundwater contamination.
