Cremation Scattering Florida Has Its New Ways In

By Martha Jackson


With all practicality, people choose cremation for their deceased love ones because it does not really cost much like in burials do. Tombstone alone is already expensive what more on the interment and so they turn them into ashes. Some relatives keep it for the sentimental value it contains with the memories spent with the person but some just like the state of Florida they choose to let go the past by cremation scattering Florida all around the memorial place. However, there is a certain policy strictly imposed with regards to this option.

The ashes have rich mineral concentrations that other plant life cannot handle and so instead of benefiting it they get to suffer from the adverse effects making your love one indeed an environmental trouble. Makes no wonder why the Environmental Protection Agency published a policy that protects this concern. Like metals and plastics these are non- biodegradable that should not be thrown together with the remants because it damages somehow all the other life form in the bodies of water.

As a matter of fact the Florida Division of Cemetery and Funeral Services do not allow anyone to scatter the ashes in the freshwater flow. Just imagine how it can be so dirty for the drinking water source to be contaminated by and worse it supplies the entire area. It takes a lot of permission to be able to or else you might just contravene the provisions of Protection of Environment Operations Act 1997 which in result may bring you to a lot of charges in the legal proceedings.

Behind all the dos and donts there are really no laws that was made effectively about on this concern but nevertheless you must know the limitations and put some considerations on all the other things you might affect. So here are some better ways to properly discard the remains with utmost respect for both the dead and the environment.

There is this method of scattering where you get to toss the remains through the wind and that is called the casting. Before everything else check the wind direction then if it is already ready enough then cast it downwind it will be expected that some particles will fall to the ground however some will just be blown by the wind. It is suggested that you have to let someone stand upwind so that they will not accidentally be getting in the ashes way.

Trenching refers to digging up their own graves for the ashes to be placed. Burying it together with the urn or any bag can do but then you can also do it in direct to the narrow, long hole. Afterwards, when the ceremony is finished generally they scrape over the trench. Improvise a personal tombstone by carving the name of the deceased on the ground.

Raking is also an available option that talks about simply setting free of the remnants from the urn on the unconstrained soil but make sure when you do this keep it near to the ground while pouring because of the wind that might disrupt you from raking. From the word itself, you are using a rake to blend the remains into the earth. One person can do the raking of the ashes or everyone can take turns so that everybody gets a chance to ceremonially rake the remains.

You can do all you want with them it is up to you whether you want them to be cremated or not. Put this in mind, it may hurt that they are no longer with you but they will always be present in the heart as long as the memories lives on. All of them are watching you from above you are never alone. Let time heals the pain and one day you will just smile about remembering those good moments that you had together.
