### § 156.10 Labeling requirements.

top (a) General —(1) Contents of the label. Every pesticide product shall bear a label containing the information specified by the Act and the regulations in this part. The contents of a label must show clearly and prominently the following: (i) The name, brand, or trademark under which the product is sold as prescribed in paragraph (b) of this section; (ii) The name and address of the producer, registra nt, or person for whom produced as prescribed in paragraph (c) of this section; (iii) The net contents as prescribed in paragraph (d) of this section; (iv) The product registration number as prescribed in paragraph (e) of this section; (v) The producing establishment number as prescribed in paragraph (f) of this section; (vi) An ingredient statement as prescribed in paragraph (g) of this section; (vii) Hazard and precautionary statements as prescribed in subpart D of this part for human and domestic animal hazards and subpart E of this part for environmental hazards. (viii) The directions for use as prescrib ed in paragraph (i) of this section; and (ix) The use classification(s) as prescr ibed in paragraph (j) of this section. (2) Prominence and legibility. (i) All words, statements, graphic representations, designs or other information required on the labeling by the Act or the regulations in this part must be clearly legible to a person with normal vision, and must be placed with such conspicuousness (a s compared with other words, statements, designs, or graphic matter on the labeling) and expressed in such terms as to render it likely to be read and understood by the ordinary individual under customary conditions of purchase and use. (ii) All required label text must:

10/16/2008 http ://ecfr. gp oaccess. g ov/c g i/t/text/text-idx?c=ecfr&s id=88c4728f49a82e5e4f6bcf44c55b...(A) Be set in 6-point or larger type; (B) Appear on a clear contrasting background; and (C) Not be obscured or crowded. (3) Language to be used. All required label or labeling text shall appear in the English language. However, the Agency may require or the applicant may propose additional text in other languages as is considered necessary to protect the public. When additional text in another language is necessary, all labeling requirements will be applied equally to both the English and other-language versions of the labeling. (4) Placement of Label —(i) General. The label shall appear on or be securely attached to the immediate container of the pesticide product. For purposes of this section, and the misbranding provisions of the A ct, “securely attached” shall mean that a label can r easonably be expected to remain affixed during the foreseeable conditions and period of use. If the i mmediate container is enclosed within a wrapper or outside container through which the label cannot be clearly read, the label must also be securely attached to such outside wrapper or container, if it is a part of the package as customarily distributed or sold. (ii) Tank cars and other bulk containers —(A) Transportation. While a pesticide product is in transit, the appropriate provisions of 49 CFR parts 170–189, conc erning the transportation of hazardous materials, and specifically those provisions concerning the labeling, marking and placarding of hazardous materials and the vehicles carrying them, define the basic Federal requirements. In addition, when any registered pesticide product is transported in a tank car, tank truck or other mobile or portable bulk container, a copy of the accepted label must be attached to th e shipping papers, and left with the consignee at the time of delivery. (B) Storage. When pesticide products are stored in bulk co ntainers, whether mobile or stationary, which remain in the custody of the user, a copy of the label of labeling, including all appropriate directions for use, shall be securely attached to the container in the immediate vicinity of the discharge control valve. (5) False or misleading statements. Pursuant to section 2(q)(1)(A) of the Act, a pesticide or a device declared subject to the Act pursuant to §152.500, is mi sbranded if its labeling is false or misleading in any particular including both pesticidal and n on-pesticidal claims. Examples of statements or representations in the labeling which constitute misbranding include: (i) A false or misleading statement concerning the composition of the product; (ii) A false or misleading statement concerning the e ffectiveness of the product as a pesticide or device; (iii) A false or misleading statement about the value of the product for purposes other than as a pesticide or device; (iv) A false or misleading comparison with other pesticides or devices; (v) Any statement directly or indire ctly implying that the pesticide ordevice is recommended or endorsed by any agency of the Federal Government; (vi) The name of a pesticide which contains two or more principal active ingredients if the name suggests one or more but not all such principal active ingredients even though the names of the other ingredients are stated elsewhere in the labeling; (vii) A true statement used in such a way as to give a false or misleading impression to the purchaser; (viii) Label disclaimers which negate or detract fr om labeling statements required under the Act and these regulations; (ix) Claims as to the safety of the pesticide or its ingredients, including statements such as “safe,” “nonpoisonous,” “noninjurious,” “harmless” or “non toxic to humans and pets” with or without such a

(i) Except as provided in paragraph (a)(6)(ii) of this section, final printed labeling must be submitted and accepted prior to registration. However, final printed labeling need not be submitted until draft label texts have be en provisionally accepted by the Agency. (ii) Clearly legible reproductions or photo reductions will be accepted for unusual labels such as those silk-screened directly onto glass or metal containers or large bag or drum labels. Such reproductions must be of microfilm reproduction quality. (b) Name, brand, or trademark. (1) The name, brand, or trademark under which the pesticide product is sold shall appear on the front panel of the label. (2) No name, brand, or trademark may appear on the label which: (i) Is false or misleading, or (ii) Has not been approved by the Administrator throug h registration or supplemental registration as an additional name pursuant to §152.132. (c) Name and address of producer, registrant, or person for whom produced. An unqualified name and address given on the label shall be considered as the name and address of the producer. If the registrant's name appears on the label and the regist rant is not the producer, or if the name of the person for whom the pesticide was produced appears on the label, it must be qualified by appropriate wording such as “Packed for * * *,” “Distributed by * * *,” or “Sold by * * *” to show that the name is not that of the producer. (d) Net weight or measure of contents. (1) The net weight or measure of content shall be exclusive of wrappers or other materials and shall be the average content unless explicitly stated as a minimum quantity. (2) If the pesticide is a liquid, the net content statement shall be in terms of liquid measure at 68 °F (20 ° C) and shall be expressed in conventional American units of fluid ounces, pints, quarts, and gallons. (3) If the pesticide is solid or semisolid, viscous or pre ssurized, or is a mixture of liquid and solid, the net content statement shall be in terms of weight expressed as avoirdupois pounds and ounces. (4) In all cases, net content shall be stated in terms of the largest suitable units, i.e. , “1 pound 10 ounces” rather than “26 ounces.” (5) In addition to the required units specified, net content may be expressed in metric units. (6) Variation above minimum content or around an average is permissible only to the extent that it represents deviation unavoidable in good manufacturing practice. Variation below a stated minimum is not permitted. In no case shall the average conten t of the packages in a shipment fall below the stated average content. (7) For a pesticide product packaged in a refillable container, an appropriately sized area on the label may be left blank to allow the net weight or measure ofcontent to be marked in by the refiller according to 40 CFR 165.65(h) or 165.70(i) prior to distribution or sale of the pesticide. As required in paragraph 

## Pa g e 4 of 27 Electronic Code of Federal Re g ulations:

10/16/2008 http ://ecfr. gp oaccess. g ov/c g i/t/text/text-idx?c=ecfr&s id=88c4728f49a82e5e4f6bcf44c55b...(a)(1)(iii) of this section, the net contents must be shown clearly and prominently on the label. (e) Product registration number. The registration number assigned to the pesticide product at the time of registration shall ap pear on the label, pr eceded by the phrase “EPA Regist ration No.,” or the phrase “EPA Reg. No.” The regi stration number s hall be set in type of a size and style simi lar to other print on that part of the label on which it appears and shall run parallel to it. The registration number and the required identifying phrase shall not appear in such a manner as to suggest or imply recommendation or endorsement of the product by the Agency. (f) Producing establishment's registration number . The producing establishment registration number preceded by the phrase “EPA Est.”, of the final es tablishment at which the product was produced may appear in any suitable location on the label or immediate container. It must appear on the wrapper or outside container of the package if the EPA establishment re gistration number on the immediate container cannot be clearly read through such wrappe r or container. For a pesticide product packaged in a refillable container, an appropriately sized area on the label may be left bl ank after the phrase “EPA Est.” to allow the EPA establishment registration number to be marked in by th e refiller acco rding to 40 CFR 165.65(h) or 165.70(i) prior to distribution or sale of the pesticide. (g) Ingredient statement —(1) General. The label of each pesticide product must bear a statement which contains the name and percentage by weight of each active ingredient, the total percentage by weight of all inert ingredients; and if the pesticide contains ar senic in any form, a statement of the percentages of total and water-soluble arsenic calculated as elemental arsenic. The active ingredients must be designated by the term “active ingredients” and the in ert ingredients by the term “inert ingredients,” or the singular forms of these terms when appropriate. Both terms shall be in the same type size, be aligned to the same margin and be equally prominent. The statement “Inert Ingredients, none” is not required for pesticides which contain 100 percent acti ve ingredients. Unless the ingredient statement is a complete analysis of the pesticide, the term “analysis” shall not be used as a heading for the ingredient statement. (2) Position of ingredient statement. (i) The ingredient statement is normally required on the front panel of the label. If there is an outside container or wrapper through which the ingredient statement cannot be clearly read, the ingredient statement must also appear on such outside container orwrapper. If the size or form of the package makes it impracticable to place the ingredient statement on the front panel of the label, permission may be granted for the ingredient statement to appear elsewhere. (ii) The text of the ingredient statement must run para llel with other text on the panel on which it appears, and must be clearly distinguishable from and mu st not be placed in the body of other text. (3) Names to be used in ingredient statement. The name used for each ingredient shall be the accepted common name, if there is one, followed by the chemical name. The common name may be used alone only if it is well known. If no common name has been established, the chemical name alone shall be used. In no case will the use of a trademark or pr oprietary name be permitt ed unless such name has been accepted as a common name by the Administrator under the authority of section 25(c)(6). (4) Statements of percentages. The percentages of ingredients shal l be stated in terms of weight-toweight. The sum of percentages of the active and the inert ingredients shall be 100. Percentages shall not be expressed by a range of values such as “ 22–25%.” If the uses of the pesticide product are expressed as weight of active ingred ient per unit area, a statement of th e weight of active ingredient per unit volume of the pesticide formulation shall also appear in the ingredient statement. (5) Accuracy of stated percentages. The percentages given shall be as precise as possible reflecting good manufacturing practice. If there may be unavoi dable variation between manufacturing batches, the value stated for each active ingredient shall be the lowest percentage which may be present. (6) Deterioration. Pesticides which change in chemical compos ition significantly must meet the following labeling requirements: (i) In cases where it is determined that a pesticide formulation changes chemical composition significantly, the product must bear the following statement in a prominent position on the label: “Not for sale or use after [date].” (ii) The product must meet all label claims up to the expiration time indicated on the label.

(j) Statement of Use Classification. By October 22, 1976, all pesticide products must bear on their labels a statement of use classification as described in paragraphs (j) (1) and (2) of this section. Any pesticide product for which some uses are classified for general use and others for restricted use shall be separately labeled according to the labeling standards set forth in this subsection, and shall be marketed as separate products with different registration num bers, one bearing directions only for general use(s) and the other bearing directions for restricted use(s) except that, if a product has both restricted use(s) and general use(s), both of these uses may appear on a product labeled for restricted use. Such products shall be subject to the provisi ons of paragraph (j)(2) of this section. (1) General Use Classification. Pesticide products bearing directions for use(s) classified general shall be labeled with the exact words “General Classification” immediately below the heading “Directions for Use.” And reference to the general classification that suggests or implies that the general utility of the pesticide extends beyond those purposes and uses contained in the Directions for Use will be considered a false or misleading statement un der the statutory definitions of misbranding. (2) Restricted Use Classification. Pesticide products bearing direction for use(s) classified restricted shall bear statements of restricted us e classification on the front panel as described below: (i) Front panel statement of rest ricted use classification. (A) At the top of the front panel of the label, set in type of the same minimum sizes as required for human hazard signal words (see table in paragraph (h)(1)(iv) of this section), and appe aring with suffici ent prominence relative to other text and graphic material on the front panel to make it unlikely to be overlooked under customary conditions of purchase and use, the statement “Restricte d Use Pesticide” shall appear. (B) Directly below this statement on the front panel, a summary statement of the terms of restriction imposed as a precondition to registration shall appear . If use is restricted to certified applicators, the following statement is required: “For retail sale to and use only by Certified Applicators or persons under their direct supervision and only for those uses cove red by the Certified Applic ator's certification.” If, however, other regulatory restrictions are imposed, the Administrator will define the appropriate wording for the terms of restri ction by regulation.

The signal word, child hazard warning, and, in certain cases, the first aid statement are required to appear on the front panel of the label, and also in any supplemental labeling intended to accompany the product in distribution or sale. (2) Statements elsewhere on label. Hazard and precautionary statements not required on the front panel may appear on other panels of the label, and may be required also in supplemental labeling. These include, but are not limited to, the human hazard and precautionary statements, domestic animal statements if applicable, a Note to Physician, and ph ysical or chemical hazard statements. (b) Placement and prominence —(1) Front panel statements. All required front panel warning statements shall be grouped together on the label, and shall appear with sufficient prominence relative to other front panel text and graphic material to make them unlikel y to be overlooked under customary conditions of purchase and use.

### § 156.62 Toxicity Category.

top

This section establishes four Toxi city Categories for acute hazards of pesticide products, Category I being the highest toxicity category. Most human haz ard, precautionary statements, and human personal protective equipment statements are based upon the Toxicity Category of the pesticide product as sold or distributed. In addition, toxicity categories may be used for regulatory purposes other than labeling, such as classification for restricted use and requirements for child-resi stant packaging. In certain cases, statements based upon the Toxicity Category of the product as diluted for use are also permitted. A Toxicity Category is assigned for each of five types of acute exposure, as specified in the table in this paragraph. Acute Toxicity Categories for Pesticide Products

### § 156.64 Signal word.

top (a) Requirement. Except as provided in paragraph (a)(4), each pesticide product must bear on the front panel a signal word, reflecting the highest Toxicity Category (Category I is the highest toxicity category) to which the product is assigned by any of the five routes of exposure in §156.62. The signal word must also appear together with the heading for the human precautionary statement section of the labeling (see §156.70). (1) Toxicity Category I. Any pesticide product meeting the criteria of Toxicity Category I for any route of exposure must bear on the front panel the signal word “DANGER.” In addition, if the product is assigned to Toxicity Category I on the basis of its oral, inhalation or dermal toxicity (as distinct from skin and eye irritation), the word “Poison” must appear in red on a background of distinctly contrasting color, and the skull and crossbones symbol must appear in immediate proximity to the word “Poison.” (2) Toxicity Category II. Any pesticide product meeting the criteria of Toxicity Category II as the highest category by any route of exposure must bear on the front panel the signal word “WARNING.” (3) Toxicity Category III. Any pesticide product meeting the criteria of Toxicity Category III as the highest category by any route of exposure must bear on the front panel the signal word “CAUTION.” (4) Toxicity Category IV. A pesticide product meeting the criteria of Toxicity Category IV by all routes of exposure is not required to bear a signal word. If a signal word is used, it must be “CAUTION.” (b) Use of signal words. In no case may a product: (1) Bear a signal word reflecting a higher Toxicity Category than indicated by the route of exposure of highest toxicity, unless the Agency determines that such labeling is necessary to prevent unreasonable adverse effects on man or the environment; (2) Bear a signal word reflecting a lesser Toxicity Category associated with a diluted product. Although precautionary statements for use dilutions may be in cluded on label, the signal word must reflect the toxicity of the product as distributed or sold; or (3) Bear different signal words on different parts of the label.

(If you do not unders tand the label, find some one to explain it to you in detail.)” The Spanish signal word “PELIGRO” shall be used for products in toxicity category I, and the Spanish signal word “AVISO” shall be used for products in toxicity category II. These statements shall appear on the label close to the English signal word. [57 FR 38146, Aug. 21, 1992, as amended at 58 FR 34203, June 23, 1993] 

### § 156.208 Restricted-entry statements.

top (a) Requirement. Each product with a restricted -entry interval shall bear the following statement: “Do not enter or allow worker entry into treated areas during the restricted-entry interval (REI).” This statement shall be under the heading AGRICULTURAL USE REQUIREMENTS in the labeling. (b) Location of specific restricted -entry interval statements. (1) If a product has one specific restrictedentry interval applicable to all registered uses of the product on agricultural plants, the restricted-entry interval for the product shall appear as a continuation of the statement required in paragraph (a) of this section and shall appear as follows: “of X hours” or “of X days” or “until the acceptable exposure level of X ppm or mg/m 3 is reached.” (2) If different restricted-ent ry intervals have been established for some crops or some uses of a product, the restricted-entry statement in pa ragraph (b)(1) of this section shall be associated on the labeling of the product with the directions for use for each crop each use to which it applies, immediately preceded or immediately followed by the words “Restric ted-entry interval” (or the letters “REI”). (c) Restricted-entry interval based on toxicity of active ingredient —(1) Determination of toxicity category. A restricted-entry interval shall be established based on the acute toxicity of the active ingredients in the product. For the purpose of setting the restricted-ent ry interval, the toxicity category of each active ingredient in the product shall be determined by comparing the obtainable data on the acute dermal toxicity, eye irritation effects, and skin irritation effects of the ingredi ent to the criteria of §156.10(h)(1). The most toxic of the applicable toxicity categories that are obtainable for each active ingredient shall be used to determine the restricted-ent ry interval for that product. Ifno acute dermal toxicity data are obtainable, data on acute oral toxicity also shall be considered in this comparison. If no applicable acute toxicity data are obtainable on the active ingredient, the toxicity category corresponding to the signalword of any registered manufacturing-use product that is the source of the active ingredient in the end

If no acute toxicity data are obtainable on the active ingredients and no toxicity category of a registered manufacturing-use pr oduct is obtainable, the to xicity category of the end-use product (corresponding to the signal word on its labeling) shall be used. (2) Restricted-entry interval for sole active ingredient products. (i) If the product contains only one active ingredient and it is in toxicity category I by the criter ia in paragraph (c)(1) of th is section, the restrictedentry interval shall be 48 hours. If, in addition, the active ingredient is an organophosphorus ester that inhibits cholinesterase and that may be applied outdoors in an area where the average annual rainfall for the application site is less than 25 inches per year, the following statement shall be added to the restricted-entry interval statement: “(72 hours in outdoor areas where average annual rainfall is less than 25 inches a year).” (ii) If the product contains only one active ingredient and it is in toxicity cate gory II by the criteria in paragraph (c)(1) of this sectio n, the restricted-entry interval shall be 24 hours. (iii) If the product contains only active ingredients that are in toxicity category III or IV by the criteria in paragraph (c)(1) of this sectio n, the restricted-entry interval shall be 12 hours. (3) Restricted-entry interval for mult iple active ingredient products. If the product contains more than one active ingredient, the restricted-entry interval (including any associated statement concerning use in arid areas under paragraph (c)(2)(i) of this section) shall be based on the active ingredient that requires the longest restricted-entry interval as determined by the criteria in this section. (d) Exception for fumigants. The criteria for determining restricted-ent ry intervals in paragraph (c) of this section shall not apply to any product that is a fu migant. For fumigants, any existing restricted-entry interval (hours, days, or acceptable exposure level) shall be retained. Entry restrictions for fumigants have been or shall be established on a case-by-case ba sis at the time of registration, reregistration, or other Agency review process. (e) Existing product-specific restricted-entry intervals. (1) A product-specific re stricted-entry interval, based on data collected in accordance with §158.1070 or §161.390 of this chapter and Subdivision K of the Pesticide Assessment Gu idelines, shall supersede any restricted-entry interval applicable to the product under paragraph (c) of this section. (2) Product-specific restricted-entry in tervals established for pesticide products or pesticide uses that are not covered by part 170 of this chapter shall remain in effect and shall not be placed under the heading A GRICULTURAL USE REQUIREMENTS in the labeling. (f) Existing interim restri cted-entry intervals. (1) An interim restricted-entry interval established by the A gency before the effective date of this subpart will continue to apply unless a longer restricted-entry interval is required by paragraph (c) of this section. (2) Existing interim restricted-entry intervals established by the Agency for pesticide products or pesticide uses not covered by part 170 of this chapter shall remain in effect and shall not be placed under the heading AGRICULTURAL USE REQUIREMENTS in the labeling. [57 FR 38146, Aug. 21, 1992, as amended at 58 FR 34203, June 23, 1993; 72 FR 61028, Oct. 26, 2007] 

### § 156.210 Notification- to-workers statements.

top (a) Requirement. Each product that meets the requirements of paragraph (b) of this section shall bear the posting and oral notification statements pr escribed below. The statements shall be in the DIRECTIONS FOR USE section of the labe ling under the heading AGRICULTURAL USE REQUIREMENTS. (b) Notification to workers of pesticide application. (1) Each product that contains any active ingredient classified as toxicity category I for either acute dermal toxicity or skin irritation potential under the criteria in §156.10(h)(1) shall bear the stat ement: “Notify workers of the application by warning them orally and

If no data on acute dermal toxicity, skin irritation potential, or acute oral toxicity are obtainable on the active ingredient, the toxicity category corresponding to the signal word of any registered manufacturing-use product that is the source of the active ingredient in the end-use product shall be used. If none of the applicable acute toxicity data are obtainable on the active ingredie nt and no toxicity category of the registered manufacturing-use product is obtainable, the toxicity category of the end-use product corresponding to the product's signal word shall be used. (2) Each product that is a fumigant and is registered for use in a greenhouse (or whose labeling allows use in a greenhouse) shall bear the statement: “F or greenhouse applications, notify workers of the application by warning them orally and by posting warning signs outside all entrances to the greenhouse.” [57 FR 38146, Aug. 21, 1992, as amended at 58 FR 34203, June 23, 1993] 

### § 156.212 Personal protective equipment statements.

top (a) Requirement. Each product shall bear the personal protective equipment statements prescribed in paragraphs (d) through (j ) of this section. (b) Exceptions. (1) If personal protective equipment were requ ired for a product before the effective date of this subpart, the existing requirements shall be retained on the labeling wherever they are more specific or more protective (as sp ecified in EPA guidance materials) th an the requirements in the table in paragraph (e) of this section. (2) Any existing labeling statement that prohibits the use of gloves or boots overrides the corresponding requirement in paragraph (e) of this section and must be retained on the labeling. (3) If the product labeling contains uses that are not covered by part 170 of this chapter, the registrant may adopt the personal protective equipment required in this section for those uses. However, if the personal protective equipment required in this sectio n would not be sufficiently protective or would be onerously overprotective for uses not covered by part 170 of this chapter, the registrant must continue to apply the existing personal protective equipment requ irements to those uses. The labeling must indicate which personal protective equipment requirements apply to uses covered by part 170 of this chapter and which personal protective equipment requirements apply to other uses. (c) Location of personal protective equipment statements —(1) Personal protective equipment statements for pesticide handlers. Personal protective equipment statem ents for pesticide handlers shall be in the HAZARDS TO HUMANS (AND DOMESTIC AN IMALS) section of the labeling. The required statements may be combined to avoid redundancy as long as the requirements and conditions under which they apply are identified. (2) Personal protective equipment statements for ea rly-entry workers. Personal protective equipment statements for early-entry workers shall be placed in the DIRECTIONS FOR USE section of the labeling under the heading AGRICULTURAL USE REQUIREMENTS and immediately after the restricted-entry statement required in §156.208(a). (d) Personal protective equipment st atements for pesticide handlers. (1) The table in paragraph (e) of this section specifies minimum requirements for per sonal protective equipment (as defined in §170.240 of this chapter) and work clothing for pesticide handl ers. This personal protecti ve equipment requirement applies to any product that presents a hazard through an y route of exposure identified in the table (acute dermal toxicity, skin irritation potential, acute inhalation toxicity, and eye irritation potential). (2) The requirement for personal protective equipment is based on the acute toxicity category of the enduse product for each route of exposure as defined by §156.10(h)(1). If data to determine the acute dermal toxicity or the acute inhalation toxicity are not obtainable, the acute oral toxicity shall be used as a surrogate to determine the personal protective equi pment requirements for that route of exposure. If data to determine the acute toxicity of the product by a specific route of exposu re (including acute oral

If the signal word is “CAUTION,” toxici ty category III will be used. (3) The minimum personal protective equipment and work clothing requirements specified in this section shall be included in a statement such as the follow ing: “Applicators and other handlers must wear: (body protection statement); (glove statem ent, if applicable); (footwear statement, if applicable); (protective eyewear statement, if applicable); (respirator statement, if applicable ).” The format of statements given in this paragraph is optional, but it is recommended for clarity. (e) Summary of personal protective equipment requirements. The following table 1 summarizes the personal protective equipment requirements by route of exposure and toxicity category: Table 1—Minimum Personal Protective Equipment (PPE) and Work Clothing for Handling Activities

1 If dermal toxicity and skin irritation potential are in different toxicity categories, protection shall be based on the more toxic (lower numbered) category.

2 For labeling language for chemical-resistant gloves, see paragraph (f) of this section.

3 For labeling language for respiratory protection device, see paragraphs (g) and (h) of this section.

4 Although no minimum PPE is required by this section for this toxicitycategory and ro ute of exposure, the Agency may require PPE on a product-specific basis. (f) Chemical-resistant gloves labeling statements for pesticide handlers. If the table in paragraph (e) of this section indicates that chemical-resistant gloves are required, the glove statement shall be as specified in paragraph (f )(2), (3), (4), or (5 ) of this section.

The statement must specify the particular types of chemical -resistant glove (such as nitrile, butyl, neoprene, and/or barrier-laminate). (2) Solid formulations. For products formulated and applied as solids or formulated as solids and diluted solely with water for application, the glove st atement shall specify: “waterproof gloves.” (3) Aqueous-based formulations. For products formulated and applied as a water-based liquid or formulated as a water-based liquid and diluted solely with water for application, the glove statement may specify: “waterproof gloves” in stead of the statement in parag raph (f)(4) of this section. (4) Other liquid formulations. For products formulated or diluted with liquids other than water, the glove statement shall specify: “chemical-resistan t (such as nitrile or butyl) gloves.” (5) Gaseous formulations and applications. For products formulated or applied as gases, any existing glove statement established before the effective date of this subpart, including any glove prohibition statement, will continue to apply. If no glove statement or glove prohibition now exists, the glove statement shall specify “chemical-resistant (such as nitrile or butyl) gloves.” (g) Existing respirator requirement for pesticide handlers on product labeling —(1) General requirement. If a statement placed on a product's labeling before the effective date of this subpart indicates that respiratory protection is required, t hat requirement for protection sha ll be retained. The statement must specify, or be amended to specify, one of th e following respirator types and the appropriate MSHA/NIOSH approval number prefix: (i) Dust/mist filtering respirator with MSHA/NIOSH/ approval number prefix TC-21C; or (ii) Respirator with an organic-vapor-removing cartridge and a prefilter approved for pesticides with MSHA/NIOSH approval number prefix TC-23C or with a canister approved for pesticides with MSHA/NIOSH approval number prefix TC-14G; or (iii) Supplied-air respirator with MSHA/NIOSH ap proval number prefix TC -19C or self-contained breathing apparatus (SCBA) with MS HA/NIOSH approval number TC-13F. (2) Respirator type already specified on labeling. If the existing respiratory protection requirement specifies a respirator type, it shall be retained. The respirator statement must be revised, if necessary, to conform to the wording in paragraph (g)(1) of this section. (3) Respirator type not already specified on labeling. If the existing respiratory protection requirement on product labeling does not specify a respirator type as listed in paragraph (g)(1) of this section, the specific respirator type shall be that required in the criteria in paragraphs (g)(3 )(ii) through (vi) of this section. (i) Exception. The registrant shall specify a different type of respiratory protection device if information, such as vapor pressure value, is available to the registrant to indicate that the type of respiratory protection device selected through t he criteria in paragraphs (g)(3)(ii) through (vi) of this section would not be adequa tely protective, or mi ght increase risks to th e user unnecessarily. (ii) Gases applied outdoors. For products that are formulated or applied as a gas (space and soil fumigants) and that may be used outdoors, the respiratory protection statement shall be: “For handling activities outdoors, use either a respirator with an organic-vapor-removing cartridge with a prefilter approved for pesticides (MSHA/NIOSH approval numberprefix TC-23C), or a canister approved for pesticides (MSHA/NIOSH approval number prefix TC-14G).” (iii) Gases used in enclosed areas. For products that are formulated or applied as a gas (space and soil fumigants) and that may be used in greenhouses orother enclosed areas, the respiratory protection statement shall specify: “For handling activities in enclosed areas, use either a supplied-air respirator with MSHA/NIOSH approval number prefix TC-19C, or a self-contained breathing apparatus (SCBA) with MSHA/NIOSH approval number TC-13F.”
