Where it is in the process

Plain-English Summary

This bill requires cemetery owners who also own a crematory to have a refrigeration unit for bodies. If a body is not cremated or embalmed within 24 hours, it must be stored in this unit at 40 degrees Fahrenheit or less. This rule does not apply if the cemetery has a contract with another facility within 50 miles that has a suitable refrigeration unit, or if the cemetery owns a funeral home within 50 miles with such a unit.
