Ashes should be placed in a steel metal container with a tight tting lid. The closed container of ashes should be placed
on a non-combustible oor or on the ground well away from all combustible materials, pending nal disposal. If the ashes
are disposed of by burial in soil or otherwise locally dispersed, they should be retained in the closed container until all
cinders have been thoroughly cooled. Do not place other waste in the same container.
