Oral Warning Criteria

Oral warnings must include each of the following details:

• Location and description of the treated area
• The time during which entry is restricted
• Instructions not to enter the treated area until the restricted-entry interval is expired

Workers who are on the establishment at the start of an application must be orally warned before the application takes place. Workers who are not on the establishment at the start of the application must be orally warned at the beginning of the first work period, if the application is still taking place or if the restricted-entry interval for the pesticide is still in effect.
