The CRI shall have an ash content of between 5 and 15% as determined by ASTM D 297 (including any modifications made by ASTM in the future).
CRI made after Jan 1, 2011 shall not contain more than .01% liberated fiber (mathematically expressed as 0.0001) (no more than 0.2 lbs. per ton, which is 3.2 ounces of fiber per 2,000 lb. supersack which is approximately 25 lbs. of fiber per average field) tested per ASTM D 5603. The liberated fiber remaining in the CRI shall be free flowing and not agglomerated into clumps of fiber as received at the job site.
