Rules And Regulations
Section E. Disposition Of Cremated Remains

1. The authorizing agent shall be required to provide the person with whom cremation arrangements are made with a signed statement specifying the disposition of the cremated remains. A copy of this statement shall be retained by the crematory authority.
2. The authorizing agent is responsible for the disposition of the cremated remains. If, after a period of sixty (60) days from the date of cremation, the authorizing agent or his representative has not specified the ultimate disposition or claimed the cremated remains, the disposition authority or the person in possession of the cremated remains may dispose of the cremated remains in any manner permitted by law. The authorizing agent shall be responsible for reimbursing the disposition authority for all reasonable expenses incurred in disposing of the cremated remains pursuant to this section. A record of such disposition shall be made and kept by the person making such disposition.
3. In addition to disposing of cremated remains in a crypt, niche, grave or scattering garden located in a dedicated cemetery, or by scattering over uninhabited public lands, the sea or other public waterways pursuant to subsection F, cremated remains may be disposed of in any manner on the private property of a consenting owner, upon direction of the authorizing agent. If cremated remains are to be disposed of on private property, other than dedicated cemetery property, the authorizing agent shall provide the disposition authority with the written consent of the property owner.
4. Except with the express written permission of the authorizing agent no person shall:
   1. Dispose of or scatter cremated remains in such a manner or in such a location that the cremated remains are commingled with those of another person. The provisions of this paragraph shall not apply to the scattering of cremated remains at sea or by air from individual closed containers or to the scattering of cremated remains in an area located in a dedicated cemetery and used exclusively for such purposes.
   2. Place cremated remains of more than one person in the same closed container. This paragraph shall not apply to placing the cremated remains of members of the same family in a common closed container designed for the cremated remains of more than one person.
5. Cremated remains shall be delivered by the crematory authority to the individual specified by the authorizing agent on the cremation authorization form. The representative of the crematory authority and the individual receiving the cremated remains shall sign a receipt indicating the name of the deceased, and the date, time and place of the receipt. The crematory authority shall retain a copy of this receipt. After this delivery, the cremated remains may be transported in any manner in this state, without permit, and disposed of in accordance with the provisions of Arkansas law and these rules and regulations.
6. Cremated remains may be scattered over uninhabited public lands, a public waterway or sea, subject to the health and environmental standards, or on the private property of a consenting owner pursuant to Subsection C, if they are reduced to a particle size of one-eighth (1/8) inch or less. A person may utilize a boat or airplane to perform such scattering. Cremated remains shall be removed from their closed container before they are scattered.
