From page 18...
... Purity Requirements: The RMIC values are based on a maximum dosage of 20 mg of calcium hypochlorite/liter of water and are to be compared to impurity concentrations obtained by using sample procedures described in this monograph. If the actual dosage is other than 20 mg/liter, the user is cautioned to consult Table 2 for appropriate RMIC values.
