ENVIRONMENTAL HAZARDS This product is toxic to fish. For tf'rrestrial uses, do not apply directly to water, or to areas where surtace water is present or to intert;jal areas below the mean high wal 'mark. Do not contaminate water when disposing of equipment washwaters.

MIXING AND LOADING: Most cases of ground water contamination involving phenoxy herbicides such as 2,4-0B have been associated ~h mixinglloading and disposal s~es. Caution should be exercised when handling 2,4-0B pesticides at such s~es to prevent contamination of ground water supplies. Use of closed systems for mixing or transferring this pesticide will reduce the probabilHy of spills. Placement of the mixinglloading equipment on an impervious pad to contain spills will help pAlvent ground water contamination. : .. . ... " ...

PESTICIDE DISPOSAL

Pesticide wastes are acutely hazardous. Improper disposal 01 excess pesticide. spray mixture. or rinsate is a violation 01 Federal law. " these wastes cannot be disposed 01 by use according to label instructions. contact your State Pesticide or Environmental Control Agency. or thOl Hazardous Waste rapreselllative at the nearest EPA Regional OIlice lor guidance.

CONTAINER DISPOSAL

Triple rinse (or equivalert). Then oller for recycling or reconditioning. or puncture and dispos., of in a sanitary landlill. or incineration. or. ~ allowed state and local authorities burni. H burned. sta out 01 smoke.

GENERAL CAUTIONS AND RESTRICTIONS Do not apply BUTYRAC" 200 Broadleal Herbicide through any type 01 irrigation system.

Do not use in or near a greenhouse.

APPLICATION PROCEDURES BUTYRAG'" £00 can be applied to registered use areas by ground. aerial and sprinkler irrigation equipment. The lollowing provides recommended methods 01 application lor each crop.

GROUND APPLICATION

Use a standard herbicide boom sprayer that provides un~orm and accurate application. Sprayer should be equipped with screens no liner than 50 mesh in the nozzle tips and in-line strainers.

Select a spray volume and delivery system that will ensure thorough and un~orm spray coverage. For optimum spray distribution and thorough coverage. use 01 flat Ian nozzles (maximum tip sizG 8008) with a minimum spray pressure of 30 psi at the nozzle tips are recommended. Other nzle types that produce course spray droplets may not provide adequate coverage of the weeds to ensure optimum control. Rainorop nozzles are not recommended as weed control with BUTYRAC" may be reduced. 'n general a minimum spray vofume of 10 gallons per acre (GPA) is recommended for optimum spray coverage. When using higher .:;peed equipment. a maximum speed of 10 mph is suggested illield conditions cause excessive boom movement during application and subsequent poor spray coverage. Ground applications made when dry. dusty lield condit;"'~s exist may provide reduced weed control in wheel track areas. AERIAL APPLICATlO~

Use or~ice discs. cores and nozzk> types and arrangements that will provide Inr optimum spray distribution and maximum coverage. In general a minimum spray volume 0\ 5 GPA and a maximum pressure of 40 psi are raoommended.

GENERAL INFORMATION Spray tank residues of 2,4-0 or MCPA mixed with BUTYRAC® 200 Broadleaf Herbicide can cause serious crop or urnamental plant injury. A sprayer previously used to apply these chemicals must be thoroughly cleaned with alkali and water before applying BUTYRAC.200. Be sure sprayer is clean before applying BUTYRAC® 200 Broadleaf Herbicide.

Local cond~ions may affect the use of herbicides. Consult your State Agricultural Experiment Station, Farm Advisors, or Extension Weed Specialists for ..,dvice in selecting treatments from this labei to best fit local cond~ions.

INJURY 10 CROPS FROM THIS HERBICIDE MAY OCCUR. IF YOU ARE NOT PREPARED 10 ACCEPT SOME DEGREE OF CROP INJURY DO NOT USE THIS PRODUCT.

Crop varieties vary in response to 2,4-0B and some are easily injured. Apply BUTYRAC~ 200 only to varieties known to be tolerant to 2,4-0B. If you are uncenain conceming tolerant varieties or local use situations that may affect crop tolerance to 2.4-0B, consuK your seed company, state Agricunural Extension Service or qualified crop consultant for advice.

Be sure that use of this product confornos to all applicable laws. rules, and regulations. Certain states have restrictions pertaining to application distances from susceptible crops. The applicator should become familiar with these laws, rules, or regulations and follow them exactly.

TANK MIXTURES OF BUTYRAC" 200 BROADLEAF HERBICIDE AND OTHER HERBICIDES IN SOYBEANS

Applying tank mixtures of BUTYRAC'"' 200 Broadleaf Herbicide w~h other soybean herbicides as directed below can reduce compet~ion from early weed populations and can improve weed control or control mid-to·late·season weed populations, thus minimizing the likelihood of yield reduction in soybean fields with heavy broadleaf weed infestations. However, treating soybeans under stress (as from drought or disease such as Phytophthora root rot) or in any other manner not directed on this label, can cause crop injury and yield reduction. The advantage of treating weeds w~h an appropriate tank mixture should be balanced against any potential for loss. Follow the local recommendations of your state, Cooperative Extension Service, or other agricuKural weed control author~y. Always follow the recommendations of any product used in tank mixture w~h BUTYRAC" 200.

Dear Ms. Miller:

RE: BUTYRAC@ 200 Broadleaf Herbicide EPA Reg. No. 264-105

In compliance with PR Notice 93-3, Label Statement Prohibiting Applications to water (wetlands), this letter along with five copies of the label serves as notification that the Environmental Hazards section has been revised to include the statement ''For terrestrial uses, do not apply directly to water, or to areas where surface water is present or to intertidal areas below the mean high water mark." This is the only change made to the label at this time.

Please contact me at (919) 549-2787 if you have any questions.
