PRECAUTIONARY STATEMENTS 

HAZARDS TO HUMANS AND DOMESTIC ANIMALS 

DANGER: Fatal if inhaled. Do not breathe vapors. Corrosive. Causes irreversible eye 

damage. Do not get in eyes, on skin, or on clothing. Wear long-sleeved shirt and long 

pants, socks, chemical-resistant gloves (such as nitrile or butyl), and protective eyewear. 

For closed loading systems that are engineered to eliminate contact with aerosols and 

vapors, workers must have access to a respirator with an organic-vapor removing 

cartridge with a prefilter approved for pesticides (MSHA/NIOSH approval number prefix 

TC-23C), or a canister approved for pesticides (MSHA/NIOSH approval number prefix 

TC-14G), or a NIOSH approved respirator with an organic vapor (OV) cartridge or 

canister with any R, P, or HE prefilter. Wash thoroughly with soap and water after 

handling and before eating, drinking, chewing gum, using tobacco, or using the toilet. 

Remove and wash contaminated clothing before reuse. Keep container closed when not 

in use. Use with adequate ventilation. 

ENVIRONMENTAL HAZARDS 

Do not apply directly to water, or to areas where surface water is present or to intertidal 

areas below the mean high water mark. Do not contaminate water when disposing of 

equipment washwater or rinsate. 

Do not discharge 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.

CHEMICAL HAZARDS 

Do not mix with strong inorganic acids as this will lead to an excessive release of 

formaldehyde. Reaction may cause rapid increase of temperature. 

DIRECTIONS FOR USE 

It is a violation of Federal law to use this product in a manner inconsistent with its 

labeling. 

For Use in: 

Fuel preservation 

[Stabicide 71] [This product] is recommended for the decontamination and control of 

microorganisms in fuel systems. Stabicide 71 is recommended for controlling the growth 

of bacteria and fungi in dispersed and free-water commonly found in fuel systems. 

Add [Stabicide 71] [this product] to spark ignition, petroleum distillate, biofuel or synthetic 

fuel (fuel grades boiling point below 390°C) in tanks or pipelines via closed [metered] 

system dosing. Stabicide 71 must be added, through a closed system, as a single dose 

or by proportional metering to achieve the appropriate Stabicide 71 concentration in the 

treated fuel system.

For best performance, provide good distribution of [Stabicide 71] [this product] in the fuel 

by mixing or by adding the biocide before or during tank filling. Furthermore [Stabicide 

71] [this product] must remain in contact with treated fuel system for a minimum of four 

hours and preferably eight hours to decontaminate the fuel and fuel-system walls. 

For shock-treatment of heavily contaminated fuel systems, add 0.4 to 0.8 gal of 

[Stabicide 71] [this product] per 1000 gal of fuel and fuel associated water to achieve a 

concentration of 500 to 1000 ppm (w/w) in the treated fuel system. 

For preventive treatment, a dose of 0.04 to 0.16 gal (5 to 20.5 oz) of [Stabicide 71] [this 

product] to 1000 gal of fuel is recommended to achieve a concentration of 50 to 200 

ppm. 

Storage and Disposal 

Do not contaminate water, food, or feed by storage and disposal. 

Pesticides Storage: Keep container closed to prevent spills and contamination. 

Pesticide Disposal: Pesticide wastes may be hazardous. Improper disposal of excess 

pesticide, spray mixture, or rinsate is a violation of Federal Law. If these wastes cannot 

be disposed of by use according to the label instructions, contact your State Pesticide 

or Environmental Control Agency, or Hazardous Waste Representative at the nearest 

EPA Regional Office for guidance. 

Spill and Leak Procedures: Small releases can be cleaned up using a standard 

absorbent (i.e. polypads, vermiculite, dry sand). Evacuate immediate area of spill or 

leak. Place leaking container in well-ventilated area. Identify all sources of ignition 

before clean-up procedures begin. Wear long-sleeved shirt and long pants or chemical 

resistant suit, socks, chemical-resistant gloves (such as nitrile or butyl), and protective 

eyewear. Use a respirator with an organic-vapor removing cartridge with a prefilter 

approved for pesticides (MSHA/NIOSH approval number prefix TC-23C), or a canister 

approved for pesticides (MSHA/NIOSH approval number prefix TC-14G), or a NIOSH 

approved respirator with an organic vapor (OV) cartridge or canister with any R, P, or 

HE prefilter for entry into affected area. Work upwind if possible. Allow spilled material 

to evaporate, or absorb onto absorbent material. Neutralize residue with citric acid or 

other neutralizing agent for bases. Test area with litmus paper to ensure neutralization 

is complete. Thoroughly aerate absorbent materials outdoors prior to disposing on site 

or at an approved disposal facility. Avoid run-off to storm sewers and ditches leading to 

natural waterways. Do not allow unprotected persons to enter spill area or clean up 

area without a respirator until formaldehyde (active constituent of Stabicide 71) levels 

are determined to be below 0.75 ppm, as determined by an OSHA approved method 

used in accordance with the manufacturer’s instructions. 

Container Handling: Non-refillable container. Do not reuse or refill this container. 

Triple rinse container (or equivalent) promptly after emptying. Triple rinse as follows: 

Empty the remaining contents into application equipment or a mix tank. Fill the 

container 1⁄4 full with water. Replace and tighten closures. Tip container on its side 

and roll it back and forth, ensuring at least one complete revolution, for 30 seconds. 

Stand the container on its end and tip it back and forth several times. Turn the 

container over onto its other end and tip it back and forth several times. Empty the 

rinsate into application equipment or a mix tank or store rinsate for later use or 

disposal. Repeat this procedure two more times. Then offer for recycling if available 

or reconditioning if appropriate or puncture and dispose of in a sanitary landfill, or by 

incineration, or by other procedures approved by state and local authorities.
