ECOLOGICAL INFORMATION The overall product is Toxic to Aquatic Life with Long Lasting Effects. Avoid contaminating waterways. See below for Ecotoxicity Data on the main ingredients in this product. Fluroxypyr (as 100%): Acute Aquatic Algae Toxicity EC50 (5 days) : 0.292 mg/L Acute Aquatic Daphnia Toxicity EC50 (48 hrs) : >0.2 mg/L Fluroxypyr-Methyl Heptyl Ester degrades to Fluroxypyr, which is then Not readily Biodegradable.

Dangerous Goods by Air (IATA Regs) and Sea (IMDG Code). Rox.Star 200 Herbicide Issue: KDPC-Rox.Star 200 Hebicide-SDS-H&E-10 Jan 2024.doc Issue Date: 10 Jan 2024 Page 6 of 9 Environmental Fate Fluroxypyr Methyl Heptyl Ester is almost completely degraded to Fluroxypyr Acid within one week in soil and water. Fluroxypyr Acid is primarily degraded by microbial action. It has a half-life of about 3 to 6 days in soil under aerobic conditions depending on soil type and climatic conditions. In sterile water, Fluroxypyr Acid has a half-life of 185 to 265 days depending on the pH. Fluroxypyr is not expected to move into ground water. Residues typically remain in the top 10 centimetres of a soil profile. If used according to the label directions, Rox.Star 200 Herbicide will not be harmful to the environment. Aromatic Hydrocarbon Solvent (as 100%): Acute Toxicity Estimates Acute Aquatic Fish Toxicity LC50 : >100 mg/L Acute Aquatic Invertebrates Toxicity EC50 : >100 mg/L Acute Aquatic Algae Toxicity IC50 : >100 mg/L Acute Aquatic Microorganisms Toxicity EC50 : >100 mg/L Adsorbs to soil and has a low mobility. Floats on water. Expected to be rapidly biodegradable. Oxidises rapidly by photo-chemical reactions in air. Has the potential to bioaccumulate due to its high solubility in oil. The manufacturer classifies the Aromatic Hydrocarbon Solvent as “Toxic to aquatic life with long lasting effects.“ 13. DISPOSAL CONSIDERATIONS Disposal: In accordance with the Local, State & Federal EPA waste regulations. Advise its harmful, irritant, environmentally and GHS Combustible Liquid hazardous nature. Whatever cannot be saved for recovery or recycling should be handled as hazardous waste and sent to an EPA approved waste facility. Normally suitable for reaction or incineration by an EPA approved facility. Processing, use or contamination of this product may change the waste management options. The unclean container must also be handled as hazardous waste until cleaned. Empty containers and product should NOT be burnt. Triple rinse or preferably pressure rinse containers before disposal.
