        NOTICE TO MANUFACTURERS, FORMULATORS, PRODUCERS 
             AND REGISTRANTS OF PESTICIDE PRODUCTS 

ATTENTION:  Persons Responsible for Registration of Pesticides

SUBJECT:    Labeling Statement Prohibiting Application to Water;
            Amendment to P.R. Notice 93-3.

     This notice adds one paragraph to P.R. Notice 93-3, which
requested registrants to amend product labeling to include a new
labeling statement prohibiting application of a pesticide to water
for certain products.  The purpose of this change is twofold: (1)
to permit registrants to omit the phrase "For terrestrial uses"
from the labeling statement specified in PR Notice 93-3 when a
product is registered only for terrestrial uses and (2) to allow
registrants to use a simpler statement that consumers will more
readily understand on products registered only for residential use. 

     The following paragraph is hereby added to "Section II.
POLICY" of PR Notice 93-3:

          If a product is registered only for terrestrial, forestry
     (except aerial application) or domestic outdoor uses, the
     phrase "For terrestrial uses" may be omitted from the new
     statement.  If a product is registered only for outdoor,
     residential use, then the statement "Do not apply directly to
     water" may be used.

     If you have questions regarding this addition to P.R. Notice
93-3, you may contact Jeff Kempter, Registration Division (703-305-
5448).
