This bill amends Chapter 114 of the General Laws to allow cities, towns, cemetery corporations, or other entities responsible for cemeteries or burial places to set aside specific areas for the co-internment, meaning the burial of both human and animal remains together. This provision would permit the burial of both humans and their pets, including cremated remains, in these designated sections, overriding any existing laws that might prohibit such arrangements.
