The Board has established an advisory committee for the purpose of reviewing and possibly modifying/updating the current ten-day hold notification requirement (OAR 830-030-0010): All human remains must undergo final disposition within ten days after a licensed funeral establishment takes possession of the remains. If human remains are going to be kept longer than a ten-day period due to exigent circumstances, it is the responsibility of the licensee responsible for those human remains to notify the Board's office.

If you would like to provide input to the advisory committee, please email Pete Burns, our Education & Compliance Program Manager Pete.Burns@omcb.oregon.gov.
