Note-- See, however, section 30 (Deferral of requirement for prescribed qualifications for using particular agricultural chemical products). Subdivision 4 Additional conditions for relevant sugarcane growing 12Q Application of sdiv 4 (1) This subdivision applies to a person who prepares or uses, or causes to be prepared or used, an agricultural chemical Current as at 1 July 2017 Authorised by the Parliamentary Counsel Page 27 Chemical Usage (Agricultural and Veterinary) Control Regulation 1999 Part 4 Use of chemical products [s 12R] product containing ametryn for carrying out relevant sugarcane growing. (2) However, this subdivision does not apply to the preparation or use of a registered agricultural chemical product containing ametryn and trifloxysulfuron sodium as its only active constituents in the following quantities for each kilogram of the product-- (a) (b) 12R for ametryn--731.5g; for trifloxysulfuron sodium--18.5g. Preparing products The person must not prepare the product or allow the product to be prepared-- (a) (b) (c) 12S at a place susceptible to run-off; or within 20m of the edge of a water body; or within 20m of a sinkhole or well. Using products--weather conditions (1) The person may use the product or allow the product to be used only if-- (a) the latest forecast that is published before the product is used is not a forecast indicating moderate to heavy rain affecting the area where the product is to be used for the 48 hours after the use; and within 2 hours before the product is used, the Bureau of Meteorology has not published a report or observation about, or a representational image showing, moderate to heavy rain-- (i) at the area where the product is to be used; or (ii) within 50km of, and approaching, the area; and Example of a representational image-- an image of an area from a weather watch radar station Page 28 Authorised by the Parliamentary Counsel (b) Current as at 1 July 2017 Chemical Usage (Agricultural and Veterinary) Control Regulation 1999 Part 4 Use of chemical products [s 12SA] (c) the wind speed at the site where the product is applied is-- (i) less than 20km/h, if the product is applied-- (A) (B) using a shielded sprayer; or below the canopy of sugarcane that is at least 600mm high; or (ii) otherwise, more than 3km/h and less than 20km/h. (2) For subsection (1)(c), the wind speed must be measured above the canopy of the sugarcane on which the product is, or is to be, applied. (3) In this section-- forecast indicating moderate to heavy rain means a forecast (however described) issued by the Bureau of Meteorology of a chance or greater likelihood of-- (a) (b) moderate to heavy rain; or weather conditions associated with moderate to heavy rain. Example-- a forecast of scattered or widespread thunderstorms associated with moderate to heavy rain moderate to heavy rain means rain falling at a rate of at least 100mm in 24 hours. published includes published on radio, television or the internet whether by the Bureau of Meteorology or another entity. 12SA Using products--proximity to water bodies The person may use the product or allow the product to be used only if-- (a) there is an effective vegetated treatment area between each point where low flow run-off can leave the place where the product is used and the edge of a down-slope Page 29 Authorised by the Parliamentary Counsel Current as at 1 July 2017 Chemical Usage (Agricultural and Veterinary) Control Regulation 1999 Part 4 Use of chemical products [s 12SB] water body and the product is not used within 5m of the edge of the water body; or (b) otherwise, the product is not used within 20m of the edge of a down-slope water body. Under section 12MA(2), if there is a second natural channel (an interior channel) within the outer limits of a water body, both the interior channel and the water body at its outer limits are water bodies under this division. Accordingly, if the product is being used on a flood zone adjacent to the bank of the water body at its outer limit and on a lower flood zone on the bank adjacent to the interior channel, it is necessary to measure a distance under this section from both the edge of the water body at its outer limit and the edge of the interior channel. To help users of this regulation, the chemical use (sugarcane growing) guideline provides guidance for measuring the distance from the edge of a water body. Notes-- 1 2 12SB Using products--other conditions about site suitability (1) The person must not use the product or allow the product to be used-- (a) (b) (c) on waterlogged soil; or at a place susceptible to run-off; or within 20m of a sinkhole or well. (2) The person must ensure no area where the product has been used is irrigated to the point of run-off within 48 hours after the use. (3) Subsection (2) does not prevent an interrow furrow being irrigated to the point of run-off, but only if the run-off does not leave the furrow. (4) In this section-- irrigated to the point of run-off, in relation to an area, means more water is applied to the area than can be absorbed by the soil in the area, resulting in run-off from the area.
