8/8/06 — Effective July 1, 2006, HB 1067 requires crematories to be licensed, requires the state to inspect them at least once every three years, and allows the state to fine law-breaking crematories up to $20,000. The state quickly passed the law — New Hampshire’s first crematory regulations — after investigators found a rotting corpse and abandoned ashes at the now-closed Bayview Crematory.
