PRECAUTIONARY STATEMENTS HAZARDS TO HUMANS & DOMESTIC ANIMALS

DANGER HIGH ACUTE TOXICITY

Extremely hazardous liquid and vapor under pressure. Do not breathe vapor. Inhala­tion may be fatal or cause serious acute illness or delayed lung or nervous system injury. Liquid or vapor can cause serious skin or eye injury which may have a delayed onset. Do not get liquid on skin, in eyes or on clothing.

This product contains chloropicrin as a warning odorant. Chloropicrin may be irritating to the upper respiratory tract, and even at low le~els can cause painful irritation to the eyes, producing tearing. If these symptoms occur, leave the fumigation area immediately.

NOTE TO PHYSICIAN: Early symptoms of overexposure are dizziness, headache, nausea and vomiting, weakness and collapse. lung edema may develop in 2 to 46 hours after exposure, accompanied by cardiac irregularities; these effects are the usual cause of death. Repeated overexposure can result in blurred vision, stagger­ing gait and mental imbalance, with probable recovery after a period of no exposure. Blood bromide levels suggest the occurrence, but not the degree o! exposure. Treat-ment is symptomatic. _

,

ENVIRONMENTAL HAZARDS: This pesticide is toxic to wildlife. Do not disc:rge , effluent containing this product into lakes, streams, ponds, estuaries, oceans, or other waters unless in accordance with the requirements of a National Pollutant Discharge Elimination System (NPDES) permit and the permitting authority has been notified in writing prior to discharge. Do not discharge effluent containing this product to sewer systems without previously notifying the local sewage treatment plant authority. For guidance contact your State Water Board or Regional Office of the EPA.

PHYSICAL HAZARDS: Do not use or store near heat, open flames, or spar~elec­trical equipment.

CHEMICAL HAZARDS: Do not use application devices incorporating natural rubber or aluminum or magnesium or their alloys.

AIR CONCENTRATION LEVEL

The acceptable air concentration level lor persons exposed to methyl bromide is 5 ppm (20 mgIM'), except that for entry into residential and commercial structures the acceptable air concentration level is 3 ppm. The air concentration leV'll is measured by a direct reading detection device, such as a Matheson-Kitagawa, Draeger, or Sensidyne.

PERSONAL PROTECTIVE EaUIPMENT

Applicators and other handlers must wear:

loose fitti"g or well ventilated long-sleeved shir1 and long pants. Shoes and socks.

'. , Full-face shield or salety glasses with brow and tempie shields when handling the liquid product (Do NOT wear goggles.) When the acceptable air concentration level is above 5 ppm and a respirator is required, protect the eyes by wearing a full-face respirator.

No respirator is required if the air concentration level of methyl bromide In the work­ing area is measured to be less than 5 ppm.

A respirator is required if the acceptable air concentration level of 5 ppm is exceed­ed at any· time. The respirator must be one of the following types: (a) a supplied-air respirator (MSHAINIOSH approval number prellX TC-19C) OR (b) a self-contained breathing apparatus (SCBA) (MSHA/N:OSH approval number prefix TC-13F).

See Product Manual No. AM-21O for more information.

Under normal soil fumigation conditions. the concentrat;on of methyl bromide in the working area will not generally exceed 5 ppm as a time-weighted average and no respiratory pre-tection is required. However. there is the possibility of a spill or leak during soil fumigation. Therefore. a respirator of a type specified above must be available and will be required for entry i('lto an affected area in the event of a leak or spill.

When the acceptable air concentratiol" level is above :: ppm and a respirator Is required, protect the eyes by wearing a full·faca respirator.

No respirator is required if the air concentration level of methyl bromide in the work­ing area is measured to be less than 5 ppm.

. A respirator is required;: the acceptable air concentration level of 5 ppm is exceed­ed at any-time. The respirator must be one of the following types: (a) a supplied-air respirator (MSHA/NIOSH approval number prefix TC·19C) OR (b) a self· contained breathing apparatus (SCBA) (MSHAINIOCH approval number prefix TC-13F).

See Product Mar.ual No. AM·210 for more information.

Unde, normal soil fumigation conditions, the concentration of methyl bromide in the working area will not generally exceed 5 ppm as a time-weighted average and no respiratory protection is required. However, there is the possibility of a spill or leak during soil fumigation. Therefore, a respirator of a type specified above must be available and will be required for entry into an affected area in the event of a leak or spill.

WORK SAFETY REOUIREMENTS

1. Do not wear jewelry, gloves, goggles, tight clothing, rubber protective clothing, or rubber boots when handling. Methyl bromide and chloropicrin are heavier than air and can be trapped inside clothing and cause skin injury.

2. Immediately after contamination remove outer clothing, shoes, and socks and do not reuse until thoroughty aerated or ventilated. Keep such ctothing and shoes outdoors until thoroughly aerated. Then follow the PPE manufacturer's instruc­tions for cleaning/ maintaining PPE. If there are no such instructions for washables, use detergent and hot water. Keep and wash PPE and work clothing separately from other laundry.

3. Discard clothing and other absorbent materials that have been drenched or heavily contaminated with this product. Do not reuse them.

4. Follow PPE manulacturer's instructions for cleaning/maintaining protective eyewea' and respirators,

•• -When used lor !umigation 01 soil in enclosed spaces (e.9., greenhouses and tarpaulin covered areas) two persons trained in the use of the product must be present during introduction of the fumigant, initiation of aeration, and after aeration when testing for reentry. Two persons do not need to be present if monitoring is conducted remotely : (outside the area being fumigated). .

Do not fumigate with this product when soil temperature is below approx. 50°F. at 6-8 in. Specific directions for use in greenhouses are given in the Product Manual No. AM-210.

Aeration and Reentry:

t. Aft~r fumigation, fumigated areas must be aerated until the air concentration level 01 methyl bromide is measured to be less than 5 ppm (3 ppm for residential and commercial stru:tures).

2. Until the acceptable air concentration level is reached, do not allow any person to enter into the fumigated area unless he/she is wearing the personal protective equipment (including prescribed respirator) specified in the Hazards to Humans section of this labeling. In greenhouses, additional Worker Protection Standard restrictions appty.

SPILL AND LEAK PROCEDURES

Evacuate everyone from the immediate area of the Spill or leak. For entry into affected area to correct prOblem, wear the personal prolective equipment (including prescribed respirators) specified in the Hazards to Humans section of this labeling. Move It'ak· ing or damaged containers outdoors or to an isolated location.

Observe strict safety precautions. Work upwind, ii possible. Allow spilled fumigant to evaporate. Only correctly trained and PPE·equipped handlers are permilled to perform such cleanup. Do not permit entry into the spill or leak area by any other person until the air concenlration level of methyl bromide is measured to be less than 5 ppm.

Contaminated soil, water, and other cleanup debris is a toxic hazardous waste. Report spill to the National Response Center (800-424-8802) if the reportable quantity of 1000 Ibs. is exceeded.

PRECAUTIONS FOR USAGE PRIOR TO, DURING, AND AFTER SOIL FUMIGATION

Speclilc instructions for apptication appears in the Manual for the Safe Handling.and Application of Methyl Bromide Products No. AM-2tO.

Prior to Fumigation: Post all treated areas with warning signs.

Comply with all local regulations and ordinances. Obtain an application perlllit from Agricultural Regulatory Agencies as required.

Never fumigate alone. It is imperative always to have an assistant and proper protec.tive equipment in case of accidents.

Do not make application of 70-30 when there is little or no air movement or there is an inversion condition in the atmosphere.

NOTE CAREFULLY: Following fumigation, the level 01 soluble salts and ammonia nitrogen may be raised. This is most likely to occur when heavy rates of fumigant and fertilizers are applied to soils that are either acid, wet. cold, or high in organic mailer. Fertilizers containing ammonium salts should not be used. Apply only fer­tilizers containing nitrates until after the crop is well established and the soil temperature is above 65°F. in order to avoid ammonia injury. nitrate starvation, or both.
