PRECAUTIONARY STATEMENTS 

HAZARDS TO HUMAN AND DOMESTIC ANIMALS 

CAUTION: Avoid contact with skin, eyes or clothing. Wash thoroughly with 

soap and water after handling. 

DIRECTIONS FOR USE 

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

its labeling. To be used in governmental mosquito control program, by 

professional pest control operators, by homeowners, or in other mosquito or 

midge control operations. 

APPLICATION DIRECTIONS 

This product may be applied by both ground and aerial applications. To use, 

calculate the desired rate based on water surface area. The water depth is not 

a factor in rate determination. Spray the desired rate of AGNIQUE® MMF onto 

the surface of the water. No dilution is required and a fan spray is 

recommended. The MMF will spread to cover hard to access areas. For laige 

areas with dense vegetation it is recommended that application is made in 

several locations to assist in the spreading action. Do not pour or inject a 

stream spray directly into water. AGNIQUE® MMF is not visible on the surface 

of the water. Excess MMF on the water surface will form a white globule. 

APPLICATION SITES 

This product is for the control of immature mosquitoes and midges in areas 

where they breed and develop. This product may be used in habitats including 

potable water and irrigation waters, permanent and semi-permanent waters, 

irrigated croplands and pastures, and waters with outlets to natural water 

bodies. The following habitats provide examples of where the product can be 

applied but is not intended to be all inclusive. 

Fresh and Brackish Water: fresh water and salt marshes, [containerized] ponds, 

lak.es, stann water, drainage systems and retention & detention basins, roadside 

ditches, grassy swales, flooded fields and pastures, potable water containers, 

reselVoirs, irrigated croplands, temporary and semi-permanent woodland pools, tidal 

water, and other areas where water accumulates. 

Residential Areas: [Containerized] ponds, storm water basins, tree holes, rain 

barrels, landscape and omamental ponds, tires. stonn drains, stationary flower pots, 

pot holes, gulters, tarps, potable water containers and residential areas where water 

accumulates and provides ideal breeding habitats for mosquitoes or midges. Not for 

Homeowner Use in the State of New York. 

Polluted Waters: Sewage lagoons, percolation ponds, animal waste effluent 

lagoons, septic ditches, waste treatment facility areas, etc.

desired and in sites with no emergent vegetation and low organic content 

• Use higher rates when emergent or surface vegetation is present, due to the 

wicking action of the product. The more vegetation or the drier the vegetation, the 

higher the required rate. 

** Use higher rates in polluted water habitats for effective control

__ PLICATION NOTES 

Rate of Kill: The rate of kill when using MMF is dependent on the species, the 

life stage, the habitat and the temperature. Pupicidal action will typically result 

in 24 hours. Larvicidal action will usually result in 24-96 hours. If the film is 

present, as indicated by the indicator oil, control will be achieved. 

Indicator Oil: AGNIOUF' MMF is not visible on the surface of the water. To 

check the habitat for the presence and persistence of the product, add a drop 

of AGNIOUE® MMF Indicator Oil to several locations in the habitat. If the 

Indicator Oil forms a tight bead on the surface of the water, then the MMF is 

present for control. 

Persistence: The AGNIQUEI"J MMF surface film typically persists on the 

water's surface for 5 to 22 days. Polluted waters will cause more rapid 

degradation of the film. Higher application rates will prolong film life and extend 

the interval between retreatment. 

, ~cies: Mosquitoes and midges that require little or no surface contact for 

'brdathing will be affected by the product during the pupae and emerging adult 

Ii~"! stages. 

.. ld: The high end of the dosage rate is recommended when spraying ~ 

habitats where multi-directional winds of 10mph (16km/hr) or greater are 

expected to persist. While the film will be pushed by the winds, it will re-spread 

quickly once the winds have subsided. If persistent unidirectional winds of 10 

mph (16km/hr) or greater are expected, the displacement of the surface film 

may result in poor control. 

Spray Tanks: Thoroughly clean and dry the spray system of contaminants 

-such as petroleum oils, water, detergents and conventional toxicants prior to 

adding AGNIQUE® MMF. Detergents will destroy the film-forming of the 

AGNIQUE® MMF; other contaminants (water and oil) can result in the 

·formation of an unsprayable paste. 

Dilution: AGNIQU~ MMF is typically applied to the water's surface without 

- dilution. However, if it is desired to spray higher volumes of liquid, AGNIQUE* 

Revised 9·15·08 

i'v1MF may be diluted using a high shear Injection system thEt dilute::; tl1!3 l'v'livlF 

at the nozzle to a maximum of 10% in water. Do not add AGNIQUE~ MIvIF to 

water in non-agitated spray systems. Conventional bypass recirculation will 

not provide adequate agitation to effectivelY mix MMF in water. 

Expanding Waters: Significant expansion of the habitat's surface due to rain 

or tidal fluxes can be compensated for by using a dosage that is based on the 

largest expected surface area. This will ensure complete coverage, and 

eliminate the need for re-treatment of the flooded area .

PRECAUTIONARY STATEMENTS 

HAZARDS TO HUMAN AND DOMESTIC ANIMALS 

CAUTION: Avoid contact with skin, eyes or clothing. Wash thoroughly with 

soap and water after handling. 

DIRECTIONS FOR USE 

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

its labeling. Intended to be used in governmental mosquito control program, 

by professional pest control operators, by homeowners, or in other mosquito or 

midge control operations. 

APPLICATION DIRECTIONS 

This product may be applied by both ground and aerial applications. To use, 

calculate the desired rate based on water surface area. The water depth is not 

a factor in rate determination. Spray the desired rate of AGNIQUE® MMF onto 

the surface of the water. No dilution is required and a fan spray is 

recommended. The MMF will spread to cover hard to access areas. For large 

areas with dense vegetation, apply in several locations to assist in the 

spreading action. Do not pour or inject a stream spray directly into water. 

AGNIQU(:® MMF is not visible on the surface of the water. Excess MMF on the 

water surface will form a white globule. 

APPLICATION SITES 

This product is for the control of immature mosquitoes and midges in areas 

where they breed and develop. This product may be used in habitats including 

potable water and irrigation waters, permanent and semi-permanent waters, 

irrigated croplands and pastures, and waters with outlets to natural water 

bodies. The following habitats provide examples of where the product can be 

applied but is not intended to be all inclusive. 

Fresh and Brackish Water: Fresh water and salt marshes, [containerized] 

ponds, lakes, storm water, drainage systems and retention & detention basins, 

roadside ditches, grassy swales, flooded fields and pastures, potable water 

containers, reservoirs, irrigated croplands, temporary and semi-permanent 

woodland pools, tidal water, and other areas where water accumulates. 

Residential Areas: [Containerized [ ponds, storm water basins, tree holes, 

rain barrels, landscape and ornamental ponds, tires, storm drains, stationary 

flower pots, pot holes, gutters, tarps, potable water containers and residential 

areas where water accumulates and provides ideal breeding habitats for

APPLICATION INFORMATION 

Rate of Kill: The rate of kill when using MMF is dependent on the species, the 

life stage, the habitat and the temperature. Pupicidal action will typically result 

in 24 hours. Larvicidal action will usually result in 24-96 hours. If the film is 

present, as indicated by the indicator oil, control will be achieved. 

Indicator Oil: AGNIQUE0 MMF is not visible on the surface of the water. To 

check the habitat for the presence and persistence of the product, add a drop 

of AGNIQUE® MMF Indicator Oil to several locations in the habitat. If the 

Indicator Oil forms a tight bead on the surface of the water, then the MMF is 

present for control. 

Persistence: The AGNIQUE0 MMF surface film typically persists on the 

water's surface for 5 to 22 days. Polluted waters will cause more rapid 

degradation of the film. Higher application rates will prolong film life and extend 

the interval between retreatment. 

Species: Mosquitoes and midges that require little or no surface contact for 

"-' breathing will be affected by the product during the pupae and emerging adult 

life stages. 

Wind: The high end of the dosage rate is recommended when spraying 

habitats where mulli-directional winds of 10mph (16km/hr) or greater are 

expected tQ.pe~sist Wh:l3.>t~e film will be pushed by the winds, it will re-spread

AGf'JrQcr~ MM!;; ~Gtner b'fitaminants (water and oil) can result in the 

formation of an unsprayable paste. 

Dilution: AGNIQUE® MMF is typically applied to the water's surface without 

dilution. However, if it is desired to spray higher volumes of liquid, AGNIQUE0 

Revised 9-23-09 

MMF may be diluted using a high shear injection system that dilutes the MMF 

at the nozzle to a maximum of 10% in water. Do not add AGNIQUE0 MMF to 

water in non-agitated spray systems. Conventional bypass recirculation will 

not provide adequate agitation to effectively mix MMF in water. AGNIQU~ 

MMF ma~ also be diluted in AGNIQUE® MMF Diluent or Eco-Ash A. 

AGNIQUE MMF may be diluted 1 part MMF to 4 parts or greater of diluents. 

Fill the spray tank or container with the desired amount of AGNIQUE® MMF 

Diluent or Eco~Ash A and then add the correct amount of AGNIQUE® MMF. 

Agitate to ensure a homogeneous solution. When diluting with AGNIQUE® 

MMF Diluent or Eco-Ash A, the use of metering pumps, injector systems or 

other mixing systems is optional. 

Application rates based on two dilution options: 

MMF to Diluent Application Rate of Diluted Product 

1 part to 4 parts 1 - 5 gallons/acre 

1 part to 9 parts 2 - 10 gallons/acre 

When a different dilution rate is used, adjust the application rate accordingly. 

Do not use less than 4 parts diluents to 1 part MMF because it may not form a 

stable, homogenous solution. 

Expanding Waters: Significant expansion of the habitat's surface due to rain 

or tidal fluxes can be compensated for by using a dosage that is based on the 

largest expected surface area. This will ensure complete coverage, and 

eliminate the need for re-treatment of the flooded area.

HAND DELIVERED 

Agnique MMF MosquitG Larvicide & Pupicide (EPA Reg. No. 53263-28) 

Final Labeling in Response to Letter dated June 18, 2009 

Dear Ms. Eagle: 

On behalf ofCognis Corporation, I am responding to your letter dated June 18,2009 (Attachment I) by 

submitting one (1) final printed copy of the labeling. Please note that the proposed label has been revised as 

requested however a few changes were not incorporated as detailed below: 

• The first request asks us to include the common namc undcr the chcmical name in the "Active 

Ingredient" statement. Please note that there is no common name for the active ingredient in Agnique 

MMF Mosquito Larvicide & Pupicide. Furthermore, as recommended in the Review of Amendment to 

Change Nomenclature of Active Ingredient dated March 7, 2006 (Attachment 2) "poly (oxy-I,2-

ethanediyl), a-(C16_20 branched and linear alkyl)-ro-hydroxyl" appears on the label as the active 

ingredient name. 

• The seventh and eighth requests' ask us to delete all references to specific brand names and replace 

them with generic tenns since "you may not endorse other products on a label." We are unaware of a 

guidance document or rcgulation that prohibits thc endor:.ement of other products on a pesticide labcl. 

In addition, there are countless pesticide prnducts approved for use that inclnde reference(s) to a specific 

brand on their label. Until these products are amended or a guidance document.is published, Cognis 

wishes to keep th~ br~1l1d names OJ! !l!cir labd. 

Thank you for your assistance with this submission lfyot! have any questions or need additional information, 

please call me at 202-393-3903 ext. 16 or e··mail me at cswick@lcwisharrison.com.

Review of Amendment to Change Nomenclature of Active Ingredient 

Agnique MMF Mosquito Larvacide & Pupicide 

EPA Reg. No. 53263-28 

DP# 323953 

Kerry Leifer k~. Inert Ingredien~ ~e me ranch 

Registration Division ( 505C) 

Dan Kenny (PM-01) 

Insecticide-Rodenticide Branch 

Registration Division (7505C) 

In a submission dated October 11,2005, the registrant of Agnique MMF 

Mosquito Larvacide & Pupicide (EPA Reg. No. 53263-28), Cognis Corporation (through 

their agent, Lewis & Harrison), requested that the nomenclature associated with the 

product's active ingredient be revised from "poly(oxy-1,2-ethanediyl), a-isooctadecyl-whydroxy-" to "poly( oxy-1 ,2-ethanediyl), a-iso(C'4_2o)-w-hydroxy-" and that the 

manufacturing process be modified to allow for the use of an additional source of 

starting material. These two requests are addressed below. 

I. Revi!;ion of Active Ingredient Nomenclature 

The current approved Confidential Statement of Formula (CSF) for Agnique MMF 

Mosquito Larvacide & Pupicide (EPA Reg. No. 53263-28) dated August 27,1996, lists 

the active ingredient as "poly(oxy-1 ,2-ethanediyl), a-isooctadecyl-w-hydroxy-" with a 

Chemical Abstracts Service (CAS) Registry Number of 52292-17-8. The product is 

formulated as 100% active ingredient. The most recent approved product label 

(accepted July 14, 2003) has an active ingredient declaration of "poly(oxy-1 ,2- '" 

ethanediyl), a-Isooctadecyl-w-hydroxyl" (sic) with the weight percentage,of a~jive ',:.,' 

ingredient being given as 100%. • ': 

" , " < < , ( ", 

Poly(oxy-1 ,2-ethanediyl), a-isooctadecyl-w-hydroxy- is also referred !Q'by ttie.:: . 

synonym POE isostearyl alcohol. The process by which POE isostearyl a'cohol is· : . 

manufactured involves the ethoxylation of isostearyl alcohol. The registr?i.,! Has . : 

15
( 

submitted analytical data on the composition of the isostearyl alcohol starting material 

used in the manufacture of the Agnique MMF active ingredient as well as the POE 

isostearyl alcohol active ingredient. Both the isostearyl alcohol starting material and the 

POE isostearyl alcohol active ingredient were analyzed using reversed-phase high 

performance liquid chromatography (RP-HPLC) separation followed by mass 

spectroscopy (MS) detection. The RP-HPLC/MS data included in the 10/11/2005 

submission indicate that the isostearyl alcohol starting material used in the manufacture 

of Agnique MMF is comprised of linear and branched forms of octadecanol (a C'8 

alcohol) as well as various amounts of other C,6-C'O alcohols. The POE isostearyl 

alcohol active ingredient also is comprised of ethoxylated C'

8 alcohols as well as 

various amounts of other C,6-C20 alcohol ethoxylates. 

II. Use of an Additional Source of Starting Material 

In the 101-11/2005-submission, the registrant also seeks to use an additional, 

source of starting material in addITion to the isostearyl alcohol currently being utilized. 

The registrant is proposing to utilize NEODOL 67, a product manufactured by Shell 

Chemicals, in the manufacture of Agnique MMF. NEODOL 67 is described by Shell 

Chemicals as a "C'6 and C17 high purity primary alcohol" in its product datasheet 

(http://www.shellchemicals.com/chemicals/pdf/neodol/neodol 67.pdf?section=our prod 

ucts). The registrant has provided RP-HPLC/MS data on NEODOL 67 with 

demonstrate consistency with the Shell Chemicals description and specifications of 

NEODOL 67. 

Conclusion and Recommendations 

Based on the compositional analysis information submitted on both the isostearyl 

alcohol starting material and the POE isostearyl alcohol active ingredient, the most 

appropriate chemical nomenclature that should be used to describe this active 

ingredient is "poly{oxy-l ,2-ethanediyl), a-{C16-20 branched and linear alkyl)-whydroxy-" and this name should appear on both the product's CSF and label as the 

active ingredient name. The CAS Reg. No. of 52292-17-8 that is listed on the 

proposed CSF dated October 11, 2005 is specific to poly(oxy-1,2-ethanediyl), aisooctadecyl-w-hydroxy-" and should not be associated with poly(oxy-1,2-ethanediyllc,a-

(C16-20 branched and linear alkyl)-w-hydroxy-." A CAS Reg. No. that corresponds to . 

poly(oxy-1,2-ethanediyl), a-{C16-20 branched and linear alkyl)-w-hydroxy- should be 

used. 

Based on the compositional analysis information submitted on NEODOL 67, the 

Shell Chemicals datasheet for NEODOL 67, and the compositional analysis provided on 

the NEODOL 67 ethoxylate, it has been concluded that the active ingredient formed 

from NEODOL 67 and ethylene oxide comports with the name "poly(oxy, 1 ,~7 : , :.' : ' 

ethanediyl), a-(C16-20 branched and linear alkyl)-w-hydroxy-" and that the' cbmposITbn 

of the active ingredient formed from NEODOL 67 and ethylene oxide wQP.I(I, ~ot : " '. 

significantly differ from the POE i~ostearyl alcohol active ingredient in Ag,;i,gce MMF; : ,

This product may be applied by both ground and aerial applications. To use, 

calculate the desired rate based on water surface area. The water depth is not 

a factor in rate determination. Spray the desired rate of AGNIQUE® MMF onto-. 

the surface of the water. No dilution is required and a fan spray is 

recommended. The MMF will spread to cover hard to access areas. For large 

areas with dense vegetation it is recommended that application is made in 

several locations to assist in the spreading action. Do not pour or inject a 

stream spray directly into water. AGNIQUE* MMF is not visible on the surface 

of the water. Excess MMF on the water surface will form a white globule. 

APPLICATION SITES 

This product is for the control of immature mosquitoes and midges in areas 

where they breed and develop. This product may be used in habitats including 

potable water and irrigation waters, permanent and semi-permanent waters, 

irrigated croplands and pastures, and waters with outlets to natural water 

bodies. The following habitats provide examples of where the product can be 

applied but is not intended to be all inclUsive. 

Fresh and Brackish Water: fresh waler and salt marshes, ]containerized] ponds, 

lakes, storm waler, drainage systems and retention & detention basins, roadside 

ditches, grassy swales, flooded fields and pastures, polable water containers, 

reservoirs, irrigaled croplands, temporary and semi-permanent woodland pools, tidal 

water, and other areas where water accumulates. 

~. 

Residential Areas: ]Containerized] ponds, storm water basins, tree holes, rain 

barrels, landscape and omamental ponds, tires, storm drains, stationary flower pots, 

pot holes, gutters, tarps, polable water conlainers and residenlial areas where waler 

accumulates and provides ideal breeding habitals for mosquitoes or midges. Not for 

Homeowner Use in the State of New York. 

Polluted Waters: Sewage lagoons, percolation ponds, animal waste effluent 

lagoons, septic ditches, waste treatment facility areas, etc.

* The lower rate (0.2 gallons/acre) is recommended when only pupae control Is 

desired and in sites with no emergent vegetation and low organic content 

* Use higher rates when emergent or surface vegetation is present, due to the 

wicking action of the product. The more vegetation or the drier the vegetation, the 

higher the required rate. 

** Use higher rates in polluted water habitats for effective control

APPLICATION NOTES 

Rate of Kill: The rate of kill when using MMF is dependent on the species, the 

life stage, the habitat and the temperature. Pupicidal action will typically result 

in 24 hours. Larvicidal action will usually result in 24-96 hours. If the fdm is 

present, as indicated by the indicator oil, control will be aChieved. 

Indicator Oil: AGNIQUE* MMF is not visible on the surface of the water. To 

check the habitat for the presence and persistence of the product, add a drop 

of AGNIQUE® MMF Indicator Oil tp several locations in the habitat. If the 

Indicator Oil forms a tight bead on the surface of the water, then the MMF is 

present for control. 

Persistence: The AGNIQUE® MMF surface film typically persists on the 

water's surface for 5 to 22 days. Polluted waters wUl cause more rapid 

degradation of the film. Higher application rates will prolong fdm life and extend 

the interval between retreatment. 

Species: Mosquitoes and midges that require little or no surface contact for 

breathing will be affected by the product dU(lng the pupae and emerging adult 

life stages. 

Wind: The high end of the dosage rate is recommended when spraying 

habitats where multi-directional winds of 10mph (16km/hr) or greater are 

expected to persist. While the film will be pushe9 br,;the v.;indS; ti will re-spread 

quickly once the winds have subsided. If persis;:cnt u.t:licii~ecti.on~al winds of 10 

mph (16kmJhr) or greater are expected, the disgII3Cel""l}(;"!J:;t at ,me surface film 

may result in poor control. 

Spray Tanks: Thoroughly clean and dry the spray system of contaminants 

such as petroleum oils, water, deterget;lfs" anc.converytional tO~~9nts prior to 

adding AGNIQU~ MMF. Detergents:wIU ~de>stmye;he filnj-forrping of the 

AGNIQU~ MMF; other contaminantS ~fwat-e"r ar:-.:!' oil) can re-sult in the 

formation of an unsprayable paste. 

Dilution: AGNIQUE® MMF is typically applied to the water's surface without 

dilution. However, if it is desired to spray higher volumes of liquid, AGNIQUE® 

Revised 3-06-09 

MMF may be diluted using a high shear injection system that dilutes the MMF 

at the nozzle to a maximum of 10% in water. Do not add AGNIQU~ MMF t6 

water in non-agitated spray systems. Conventional bypass recirculation will 

not provide adequate agitation to effectively mix MMF in water. AGNIQUE" 

MMF ma~ also be diluted in AGNIQUE® MMF Diluent or Eco-Ash A: 

AGNIQUE® MMF may be diluted 1 part MMF to 4 parts or greater of diluents. 

Fill the spray tank or container with the desired amount of AGNIQUE® MMF 

Diluent or Eco-Ash A and then add the correct amount of AGNIQUE® MMF. 

Agitate to ensure a homogeneous solut"lon. When diluHng with AGNIQUE® 

MMF Diluent or Eco-Ash A, the use of metering pumps, injector systems or 

other mixing systems is optional. 

Application rates based on two dilution options: 

MMF to Diluent Application Rate of Diluted Product 

1 part to 4 parts 1 - 5 gallons/acre ~ 

1 part to 9 parts 2 -10 gallons/acre 

When a different dilution rate is used, adjust the application rate accordingly. 

Using less than 4 parts diluents to 1 part MMF is not recommended because it 

may not form a stable, homogenous solution. 

Expanding Waters: Significant expansion of the habitat's surface due to rain 

or tidal flUXes can be compensated for by using a dosage that is based on the 

largest expected surface area. This will ensure complete coverage, and 

eliminate the need for re-treatment of the flooded area. 

(Note to Review: Ihe 'onowing use directions win be provided on product marketed 10 household 

users:) 

APPLICATION NOTES 

Rate of Kill: The rate of kill when using MMF is dependent on the species, the 

life stage, the habitat and the temperature. Pupicidal action will typically result 

in 24 hours. Larvicidal action will usually result in 24-96 hours. If the film is

surface for 5 to 22 days. Polluted waters will cause more rapid degradation 01 

the film. Higher application rates will prolong film life and extend the interval 

between retreatment. 

Species: Mosquitoes and midges that require little or no surface contact for 

breathing will be affected by the product during the pupae and emerging adult 

life stages. 

Wind: The high end of the dosage rate is recommended when spraying 

habitats where multi-directional winds of 10mph (16kmlhr) or greater are 

expected to perSist. While the film will be pushed by the winds, it will re-spread 

quickly once the winds have SUbsided. If persistent unidirectional winds of 10 

mph (16km/hr) or greater are expected, the displacement of the surface film 

may result in poor control. 

Dilution: AGNIQUE~ MMF is typically applied to the water's surface without 

dilution. Do not dilute product with water or other products.

Dean, 

I'm sorry for any confusion. Since [ was brought in on the backend of this request, I rushed and didn't 

pertorm my normal review of the documents to confirm that they were produced as requested .. 

In addition, our copier was down at the time so I don't even have copies to reference what you are 

addressing but I certainly take your word for it. 

I'm uncertain as how to proceed. The two documents you have were assigned aspostilles for use in the 

Republic of Korea - irrespective (I guess) of the letter content. 

The original documents that I recieved both state for use in Korea and/or Singapore. 

If this is not the case for the document: "The one for MMF (53263-28) dated 9/16/0Blists Singapore" then 

I guess we need to request a new gold seal and resubmit for an apostille for use in Korea. 

KAREN! ELIOT: any guidance would be appreciated.

Hi Paul, 

I received the two Gold Seals today. Thanks. 

The one for MMF (53263-2B) dated 9/16/0Blists Singapore 

The one for MMF G (53263 M 30) dated 8/15/0Blists Singapore and Korea.

Good Morning Ms Williams 

Karen Warkentien with Lewis & Harrison LLC, recently requested two EPA 

gold seals (below). 

The request was processed and forwarded by Venus Eagle but unfortunately 

the US Dept of State will not accept the documents because they were 

sealed but not signed. 

If it would speed the process I can return the documents for signature 

or if necessary ask that the request be duplicated. 

please advise as to your preferred method of action
