Are non-perpetual care (non-endowed) cemeteries regulated by any other state agency?
There is no state agency that regulates non-perpetual care cemeteries. However, the State Health Department will step in if the cemetery in question poses a health hazard to the community and the Attorney General’s Office Consumer Protection Division, (505) 827-6060, will investigate deceptive trade practice violations. Individual Counties and Cities also regulate cemeteries and should be contacted.
