All crematoriums in the state of North Dakota must fully apprise funeral directors of the type of container the crematorium can cremate, and that a minimum cremation unit as adjudged practical by the cremation association of North America be used. Should caskets be used in cremation, the crematorium must apprise the funeral director in writing what materials in caskets will be completely consumed and what caskets cannot be consumed. The crematorium must apprise the funeral director if caskets or casket hardware are nonconsumable. It is the responsibility of the cremation authority involved to destroy on a regular basis and through proper sanitation and disposition channels available to it those caskets or their dependent parts that may remain after the cremation process. No stockpile of used caskets or parts may remain in or around the crematorium facility.
