Hand-held equipment: Since there is a risk to aquatic life from use, direct spray must not be allowed to fall within 2 m of the top of the bank of any static or flowing waterbody or the top of a ditch which is dry at the time of application. Spray must be aimed away from water.
Vehicle-mounted equipment (boom sprayer): To protect aquatic organisms, respect an unsprayed buffer zone to surface water bodies of 6 m.
HORIZONTAL BOOM SPRAYERS MUST BE FITTED WITH THREE STAR DRIFT REDUCTION TECHNOLOGY.
