About this file
This is a pesticide specifications attachment for the Commonwealth of Kentucky, specifically prepared by the Kentucky Transportation Cabinet (KYTC). The document outlines detailed chemical specifications for six pesticide products required for landscape and turfgrass management applications. The specifications include four landscape-related products: a pre-emergent herbicide (Isoxaben/Gallery 75DF), a second pre-emergent herbicide (Pendimethalin/Pendulum AquaCap), a post-emergent herbicide (Glyphosate/Roundup Pro), and an insecticide (Fluvalinate/Mavrik Aquaflow). Additionally, two turfgrass-specific products are specified: a pre-emergent herbicide (Dithiopyr/Dimension) and a post-emergent herbicide (herbicide containing 2,4-Dichlorophenoxyacetic acid and related compounds/Spoiler). Each specification includes detailed active ingredient percentages, inert ingredient compositions, and brand name products or approved equal alternatives.
The document provides precise chemical formulations and equivalent measurements in both metric and imperial units for each pesticide product. All specifications allow for "or equal product" substitutions, indicating flexibility in brand selection provided that chemical composition and active ingredient concentrations remain consistent with the stated standards. The attachment was last revised in January 2016 and appears designed to ensure consistent quality and performance across pesticide applications for Kentucky state and local government landscaping and turf maintenance operations.
