Ashes should be placed in a metal container with a tight‐
fitting lid. The closed container or ashes should be placed on
a noncombustible surface or on the ground, well away from
all combustible materials pending final disposal. If ashes are
to be disposed of by soil burial or otherwise locally dispersed,
they should be retained in the closed container until all
cinders have thoroughly cooled.
