RULES APPLICABLE TO CREMATORIES:

It shall be unlawful for any person, firm or corporation to cremate any dead human body prior to the expiration of forty-eight(48) hours after the death of such human body. (Sec. 872.02(I), F.S.)

A dead human body may be held any place or in transit over twenty-four (24) hours after death or pending final disposition only if the body is maintained under refrigeration at a temperature of 40°F or below; embalmed in a manner approved by the Board of Funeral Director and Embalmers in accordance with provisions of Chapter 497 F.S.; or otherwise preserved. (Division of Health Rules - Gen. Authority Sec. 381.03(l)g(ll), F.S.).

Crematory or cinerator facilities are permitted only to require a container in the form of a cardboard container of suitable strength or a wooden box or casket chosen for cremation or calcination to take place. In such cases where the deceased died from a contagious disease, an air-tight container will be required to stop fluid leakage and offensive odors and to reduce the possible further spread of the contagion. (Ch. 21-J-9.03(g)-FD&E Rules)
