AMINE 4 2,4-D WEED KILLER
<br />EPA REG. NO. 34704-120
<br />Aquatic Weed Control: Fish breathe dissolved oxygen in the water and decaying weeds also use
<br />oxygen. When treating continuous, dense weed masses, it may be appropriate to treat only part of
<br />the infestation at a time. For example, apply the product in lanes separated by untreated strips that
<br />can be treated after vegetation in treated lanes has disintegrated. During the growing season,
<br />weeds decompose in a 2 to 3 week period following treatment. Begin treatment along the shore and
<br />proceed outwards in bands to allow fish to move into untreated areas. Waters having limited and
<br />less dense weed infestations may not require partial treatments.
<br />Groundwater Contamination:
<br />Most case of groundwater contamination involving phenoxy herbicides such as 2,4 -D have been
<br />associated with mixing/loading and disposal sites. Caution should be exercised when handling 2,4-D
<br />pesticides at such sites to prevent contamination of groundwater supplies. Use of closed systems for
<br />mixing or transferring this pesticide will reduce the probability of spills. Placement of the mixing/load-
<br />ing equipment on an impervious pad to contain spills wilt help prevent groundwater contamination.
<br />Do not use the same spray equipment for other purposes unless thoroughly cleaned.
<br />Do not use in or near a greenhouse.
<br />Do not contaminate water used for irrigation or domestic purposes (except as specified on this
<br />label) especially in areas where susceptible plants are grown.
<br />Do not treat irrigation ditches in areas where water will be used to overhead (sprinkler) irrigate sus-
<br />ceptible crops.
<br />Large amounts of 2,4 -D in the soil may temporarily inhibit seed germination. Do not use in any
<br />manner other than specified on the label to avoid possible crop injury or residues at harvest.
<br />DIRECTIONS FOR USE
<br />It is a violation of Federal law to use this product in a manner inconsistent with its labeling.
<br />For any requirements specific to your State or Tribe, consult the agency responsible for pesticide
<br />regulation.
<br />AGRICULTURAL USE REQUIREMENTS
<br />Use this product only in accordance with its labeling and with the Worker Protection Standard, 40
<br />CFR part 170. This Standard contains requirements for the protection of agricultural workers on
<br />farms, forests, nurseries, and greenhouses, and handlers of agricultural pesticides. It contains
<br />requirements for training, decontamination, notification, and emergency assistance. It also con-
<br />tains specific instructions and exceptions pertaining to the statements on this label about per-
<br />sonal protective equipment (PPE) and restricted -entry Interval. The requirements in this box only
<br />apply to uses of this product that are covered by the Worker Protection Standard.
<br />Do not apply this product in a way that will contact workers or other persons, either directly or
<br />through drift. Only protected handlers may be in the area during application.
<br />Do not enter or allow worker entry into treated areas during the restricted entry interval (REI) of
<br />48 hours.
<br />PPE required for early entry to treated areas that is permitted under the Worker Protection
<br />Standard and that involves contact with anything that has been treated, such as plants, soil, or
<br />water, is:
<br />• Coveralls,
<br />• Chemical- resistant gloves made of any waterproof material,
<br />• Shoes plus socks,
<br />• Protective eyewear.

<br />NON - AGRICULTURAL USE REQUIREMENTS
<br />The requirements in this box apply to uses of this product that are NOT within the scope of the
<br />Worker Protection Standard for agricultural pesticides [(40 CFR Part 170)]. The WPS applies
<br />when this product is used to produce agricultural plants on farms, forests, nurseries, or green -
<br />houses.
<br />Do not enter or allow people (or pets) to enter the treated area until sprays have dried.
<br />NOTE: For application to turf being grown for sale or other commercial use as sod, or for com-
<br />mercial seed production, or for research purposes, follow AGRICULTURAL USE REQUIRE-
<br />MENTS on this label.
<br />PRODUCT PRECAUTIONS AND RESTRICTIONS
<br />Do not apply this product in a way that will contact workers or other persons, either directly or
<br />through drift. Only protected handlers may be in the area during application.
<br />SPOT TREATMENTS FOR ALL USE SITES
<br />Spot treatment restriction: Spot treatment is defined as a treatment area no greater than 1,000 sq.
<br />ft. per acre. Spot treatments are limited to 2 (two) applications per year. A maximum rate of 2.14
<br />quarts AMINE 4/acre (2.01bs ae /acre or 0.045 lb ae/1000 sq ft.) per application. Wait a minimum
<br />of 30 days between applications. Broadcast application is prohibited at this use rate. Aerial appli-
<br />cation is prohibited for spot treatments.
<br />SPRAY PREPARATIONS
<br />Mix AMINE 4 only with water to obtain adequate coverage, unless otherwise directed on this label.
<br />Add about half the water to the mixing tank, then add the AMINE 4 with agitation, and finally the
<br />rest of the water with continuing agitation. Note: Adding oil, wetting agent, or other surfactant to the
<br />spray may increase effectiveness on weeds, but also may reduce selectivity to crops, resulting in
<br />crop damage.
<br />Crops contacted by AMINE 4 sprays or spray drift may be killed or suffer significant stand loss with
<br />extensive quality and yield reduction.
<br />When an adjuvant is to be used with this product, Loveland Products, Inc. recommends using
<br />LI 700®. For drift control and defoaming, the use of Compadre® at .125% v/v is recommended.
<br />SPRAY DRIFT MANAGEMENT
<br />A variety of factors including weather conditions (e.g., wind direction, wind speed, temperature, rel-
<br />ative humidity) and method of application (e.g., ground, aerial, airblast, chemigation) can influence
<br />pesticide drift. The applicator must evaluate all factors and make appropriate adjustments when
<br />applying this product.
<br />Droplet Size
<br />When applying sprays that contain 2,4 -0 as the sole active ingredient, or when applying sprays that
<br />contain 2,4 -D mixed with active ingredients that require a Coarse or coarser spray, apply only as a
<br />Coarse or coarser spray (ASAE standard 572) or a volume mean diameter of 385 microns or
<br />greater for spinning atomizer nozzles.
