Aquatic buffer zone

To protect aquatic organisms, respect an unsprayed buffer zone to surface water bodies as specified for the crop.

Horizontal boom sprayers must be fitted with three-star drift reduction technology. Low drift spraying equipment must be operated according to the specific conditions stated in the official three-star rating for that equipment as published on HSE Chemicals Regulation Division’s website. Maintain three-star operating conditions until 30 m from the top of the bank of any surface water bodies.

Do not allow direct spray from horizontal boom sprayers to fall within the distance specified for the crop to the top of the bank of a static or flowing water body, or within 1 m of the top of a ditch which is dry at the time of application. Aim spray away from water.

Buffer zones of more than 5 m cannot be reduced under the Local Environment Risk Assessment for Pesticides (LERAP) scheme.
