Environmental Profile
WATER SOLUBILITY: 815 ppm at 25°C SOIL PARTICLE ADSORPTION: Bromacil can seep or leach through soil and can enter groundwater which may be used as drinking water. Procedures must be followed to minimize potential bromacil movement into groundwater HAZARDS: Fish: LC50 28 ppm (rainbow trout); 71 ppm (bluegill).
