KRS 367.97521: Closed container for cremated remains -- Temporary container.

(1) Cremated remains shall be placed in a closed container. Except for objects used for

identification, cremated remains shall not be contaminated with foreign material

unless specific authorization has been received.

(2) If cremated remains within the closed container do not adequately fill the container's

interior dimensions, the extra space may be filled with appropriate filling material

which shall not come in direct contact with the cremated remains; and the lid or top

shall then be securely closed.

(3) If the entire processed remains do not fit within the dimensions of the designated

receptacle, the remainder shall be returned in a separate container.

(4) When a temporary container is used, the outside of the container shall be clearly

identified with the name of the deceased person whose cremated remains are

contained therein.
