Reasons for Prepping

Perfectly acceptable to me. I know what safe/unsafe chlorine levels are and how long it takes chlorine to decompose in water. With a 1:1000 or less ratio of chlorine to water, the chlorine will ALWAYS break down (reacting with various things in your water) or dissipate (basically evaporating from the water) completely in 24 hours or less. With a perfect 1:1000 solution, in a 55 gallon drum, (assuming a 3.5% solution of sodium hypochlorite AKA: household bleach) without aeration, the sodium hypochlorite is completely decomposed or dissipated in about 3 hours.

YOU are the best tool in your toolbox, but you must apply the right tool to the right job. If you don't get chemistry, then use a simple chart like posted above. Charts are a great reference, but BE SURE you know what concentration level of bleach you are working with, and WHAT EXACTLY is in the bleach.

For those of us chemistry challenged it pays to err on the side of caution. What ever works for you.
