Current through Register Vol. 56, No. 18, September 16, 2024

(a) In the event that non-vaulted remains already in an interment space must be lowered to accommodate an additional interment, a disinterment permit shall be obtained permitting the lowering of the remains already in the interment space.

(b) In the event that vaulted remains already in an interment space must be lowered to accommodate an additional interment, the cemetery company need not obtain a disinterment permit.

(c) A cemetery company shall open a multiple depth grave owned by a single purchaser to a depth sufficient to accommodate all future interments in order to avoid additional charges for deepening and the need for a disinterment permit when subsequent interments are made, unless the person authorizing the interment otherwise instructs the cemetery company in writing.
