<br />unlined steel (except stainless steel) containers or spray tanks.
<br />ENVIRONMENTAL HAZARDS
<br />~or terrestrial uses, do not apply directly to water, or to areas where surface
<br />water rs present, or to intertidal areas below the mean high water mark. DO N07
<br />conaminate water when disposing of equipment washwaters or rinsate.
<br />IMPORTANT

<br />water.
<br />GENERAL INFORMATION
<br />ARSENAL is an aqueous solution containing surfactant to bemired in water and
<br />applied as a spray for control of most annual and perennial grasses and broadleaf
<br />weeds on noncropland areas.
<br />ARSENAL may be applied either preemergence or postemergence [o the weeds:
<br />however, postemergence application is the method of choice in most simalions,
<br />patticularly for control of perennials. For maximum activity, weeds should be
<br />growing vigorously a[ [he time of postemergence application. The preemergence
<br />activity of ARSENAL will provide residual control of new germination of most
<br />weed species following a postemergence application.
<br />ARSENAL is readily absorbed through leaves, stems, and roots and is [ranslo-
<br />cated rapidly throughout the plant, with accumulation in the meristematic regions.
<br />Treated plants stop growing soon after spray application. Chlorosis appears first
<br />in the newest leaves, and necrosis spreads from this point. In perennials, the
<br />herbicide is translocated into, and kills, underground smrage organs, thus prevent-
<br />~. ing regrowth. Chlorosis and [issue necrosis may no[ be apparent in some plant
<br />species until two weeks after application. Complete kill of plants may not occur
<br />for several weeks.
<br />DIRECTIONS FOR USE
<br />It is a violation of Fedem] ]aw to use this product in a manner inconsistent with
<br />its labeling.
<br />ARSENAL should be used only in accordance with recommendations on the
<br />leaflet label attached ro [he container. Keep containers closed to avoid spills and
<br />contamination.
<br />ARSENAL may be used postemergence for control of most annual and perennial
<br />grasses and broadleaf weeds on railroad rights-of--way.
<br />STORAGE AND DISPOSAL
<br />PESTICIDE STORAGE: DO NOT store below 10°F. DO NOT contaminate
<br />water, food or feed by storage or disposal.
<br />PESTICIDE DISPOSAL: Wastes resulting from the use of this product may be
<br />disposed of on site or at an approved waste disposal facility.
<br />CONTAINER DISPOSAL: Remm empty container for reuse.
<br />EMERGENCY NUMBER: ]n case of an emergency endangering life or property
<br />involving this product, call day or night 800-832-HELP (800-832-0357)
<br />APPLICATION EQUIPMENT AND TECHNIQUES
<br />ARSENAL may be applied with [he following applications equipment
<br />Aerial: fixed wing and helicopter.
<br />Boom: conventional boom mounted, manifold mounted, and offcenter nozzles.
<br />Low-volume hand-held spray equipment: backpack, knapsack and other pump-
<br />up Type pressure sprayers and backpack mist blowers used to direct application
<br />to weed foliage.
<br />High-volume spray equipment: high pressure handguns and vehicle mounted
<br />high-volume directed spray equipment.
<br />AERIAL EQUIPMENT
<br />Uniformly apply [he recommended amount of ARSENAL with properly calibrated
<br />aerial equipment in 5 to 30 gallons of water per acre. All precautions should be
<br />taken to minimize or eliminate spray drift. Aerial equipment designed to minimize
<br />spray drift, such as a helicopter equipped with a MICROFOILr"' boom, THRU-
<br />VALVEr"' boom or raindrop nozzles, must be used. Applications should not
<br />be made under gusty conditions or when wind velocity exceeds 5 mph. Except
<br />when applying with a MICROFOIL boom, a drifr control agent may be added
<br />at the recommended label ate. A foam reducing agent may be added at the
<br />recommended label rate, if needed.
<br />IMPORTANT: DO NOT make applications by fixed wing aircraft unless appro-
<br />priate buffer zones can be maintained to insure that drift does not occur offthe
<br />target area. Thoroughly clean application equipment, including landing gear, im-
<br />mediately after use. Prolonged exposure of this product b uncoated steel (except
<br />stainless steel) surfaces may result in corrosion and failure of the exposed part.
<br />BOOM EQUIPMENT
<br />Mix the recommended amount of ARSENAL in ] 0 to 60 gallons ofwater per acre
<br />in the spmy tank with the agitator mooing. A foam reducing agent may be added
<br />at the recommended label rate, if needed. If desired, a spray pattem indicator may
<br />be added at the recommended label rare. Check for even distribution in spmy
<br />pattem.
<br />IMPORTANT: To minimize drift, select proper nozzles; to avoid spraying a fine
<br />mist, DO NOT exceed spay pressures of 50 psi, and DO NOT spray under gusty
<br />or windy conditions.
<br />Clean application equipment after using this product by thoroughly flushing with
<br />water.
<br />SPRAY DRIFT MANAGEMENT
<br />Avoiding spay drift at the application site is the responsibility of the applicator.
<br />The interaction of many equipment-and-weather-related factors determines the
<br />~,tion. All rights reserved.
