<br />potential for spiny drift. The applicator and the entity authorizing spraying are
<br />responsible for considering al] these factors when making decisions.
<br />Spiny drift from apptying this product may result in damage m sensitive plants
<br />adjacrnt tv the treauven[ area. Only apply this product when [he potential for
<br />drift m these and other adjacent sensitive areas (e.g. residrntial areas, bodies of
<br />watcq knowm habimt for threatened or endangered species, or non-mrget crops)
<br />is minimal. Do no[ apply when the following conditions exist that increase
<br />the likebhood of spiny drift from intended targets: high or gusty winds, high
<br />tempemmrcs, low humidity, tempemmre inversions.
<br />To minimize spiny drift, the applicator should be familiar with and rake into
<br />account the following drift reducovn advisory nFomation. Additional information
<br />may be available from state enforoement agencies or the Cooperative Extension
<br />on th< application of this product
<br />The best drift managementsvategy and most effective way to reduce drift potential
<br />arc to apply large droplets that provide sufficient coverage and control. Applying
<br />]argtt droplem reduces drift potential, but will not prevent ddft if applications
<br />arc made unpropcrly, ar under unfavorable environmenml conditions (see WIND,
<br />TEMPERATURE AND HUMIDITY, and TEMPERATURE INVERSIONS).
<br />CONTROLLING DROPLET SIZE
<br />• Volume-Use high flow rate nozzlesmapply the highertpracoca]spiny volume.
<br />Nozzles with higher rated flows produce Luger droplets.
<br />• Pressure-Do not exceed the nozzle manufacturtt's recommended pressures.
<br />Fm many nozzle types, lower pressure produces larger droplets. When higher
<br />flow rates arc needed, uu higher flaw rate nozzles instead of increasing pressure.
<br />• Number ofNozzles-Use the minimum numbtt ofnozzlcs that provide uniform
<br />coverage.
<br />• Nozzle Orientation-0rienting nozzles so that the spiny is released parallel to
<br />the airstream produces largtt droplets than other ~orienmtions and is recom-
<br />mended practice. Significant deflection from the horizontal will reduce droplet
<br />size and increase drift potential.
<br />• Nozzle Typo-Use a noule type that is designed for the intended app&ation.
<br />With most nozzle types, narrower spiny angles produce larger droplets. Consider
<br />using low-drift nozzles. Solid stream nozzles oriented straight back produce
<br />- the largest droplets and the lower[ drift Do not use nozzles producing a mist
<br />droplet aprdy.
<br />APPWCATION HEIGHT
<br />Melting applications at the lowest possible height (helicopter, ground driven spiny
<br />boom) that is safe and pmetical reduces exposure of droplem to evaporation and
<br />wind.
<br />SWATH ADJUSTMENT
<br />When applications ere made, with a crosswind, the swath wi6 be displaced down-
<br />wind. Therefore, on the up and downwind edges of the treatment mew, the
<br />applicetm must compensate for this displaccmen[ by adjusting the path of the
<br />application equipment (e.g. aircraft, ground) upwind Swath edjustmrnt distance
<br />should brcrease with increasing drift potential (htgherwind, smaller droplets, etc.).
<br />WIND
<br />Drift potential is lowest between wind speeds of 3-IO mph. However, many
<br />facrors, including droplet size and equipment type, determine drill potential at any
<br />given speed. Application should be avoided below 3 mph due m variable wind
<br />detection and high inversion potential. NOTE: l.acal teraen can influence wind
<br />patterns. Every applicator should be familiar with local wind patterns and how
<br />Wry affect spiny drift.
<br />TEMPERATURE AND HUMIDITY
<br />Whin making applications in low relative humidity, set up equipment to produce
<br />Luger droplets to compensate for evaporation. Droplet evaporation is most severe
<br />whrn conditions are both ho[ and dry.
<br />TEMPERATURE INVERSIONS
<br />Drift potedtial is high during a tempemmrc inversion. Temperamrc inversions
<br />rcstriM vertical air mixing, which causes small suspended droplets m remain
<br />in a concentrated cloud, which can move in unprcdicmble directions due m
<br />the fight variable winds common during inversions. Temperamrc inversions arc
<br />characterizedby increasing rcmpcratures with altitude and ere common on nights
<br />with limited cloud cover end light to no wind. They begin m form as the sun
<br />sets and often continue into the morning. Their presence can be indicated by
<br />ground fog; however, if fog is not prcunt, inversrms can also be identified by
<br />the movement of smoke from a ground source or an aircraft smoke generaror.
<br />Smoke that layers and moves lammfly in a concentrated cloud (under low wind
<br />conditions) indicates an inversion, while smoke that moves upward and rapidly
<br />dissipa[cs indicates good vertical air mixing.
<br />WIND EROSION
<br />Avoid treating powdery dry or light sandy soils when conditions ate favorable for
<br />wind erosion. Under then conditions, the soil surface should first be settled by
<br />rainfall or irigation.
<br />SENSITIVE AREAS
<br />The pesticide should only be applied when the pohndal for drift m adjacent
<br />sensitive areas (e.g. residevtia] areas, bodies ofwater, known habimt for thrmtcned
<br />or endangered species, ornon-target crops) is minimal (e.g, when wind is blowing
<br />away from the sensitive areas).
<br />LOW-VOLUME HAND-HELD SPRAY EQUIPMENT
<br />Thoroughly mix a U to ] percemt solution of ARSENAL in water. To deter-
<br />mine the proper percent solution of ARSENAL, to use, see the WEEDS CON-
<br />below. The mble calculations below are based on an approximate delivery volume
<br />of 50 to 75 gallons per acre.

<br />IMPORTANT: DO NOT exceed recommended dosage rate per acre. DO NOT

<br />HIGH-VOLUME SPRAY EQUIPMENT
<br />ARSENAL may be applied using high-volume spiny equipment For best results,
<br />apply ARSENAL using the IeasC amount of water practical to obmin uniform
<br />wverage of the vegemoon foliage. Using excessive spray volumes which cause -
<br />mnoff from the plant.foliage may result in reduced perfortvance.
<br />When using spiny volumes greater than 60 gallons per acre, additional nonionic
<br />surfactant must be added et the rate of 1 quart per 100 gagons of spray solution
<br />to provide optimum wetting and/or conmm activity. A foam reducing agent may _
<br />be added at the recommended label rate, if needed. If desired, a spiny pattern
<br />indicator may be added at the recommended labd rate.
<br />To mix the spiny solution, determine the proper ARSENAL pints per acre rate
<br />from the WEEDS CONTROLLED section of this label.
<br />IMPORTANT: DO NOT exceed recommended dosage rate per acre. DO NOT
<br />~~ side-trim desirable vegetation with this product. Clean application equipment after
<br />using this product by thoroughly flushing with water.
<br />WEEDS CONTROLLED
<br />ARSENAL will provide postemttgencecontrol with residual control of the follow-
<br />ing target vegemoon specim at the rotes listed. Residual control refers to control
<br />of newly germinating seedlings in both annuals and perennials. In general, an-
<br />nual weeds may be controlled by precmergence or postemttgence applications
<br />of ARSENAL; whereas, for esmblished biennials and peronnials, postemcrgence
<br />applications of ARSENAL are recommended. ARSENAL should be used only
<br />in accordance with the recommendations on [his label amd the leaflet label.
