Every cemetery corporation shall be available for interments at least
six days per week, excluding legal holidays, as set forth in the
cemetery's regulations or in accordance with its practices. Any cemetery
which maintains and designates a burial section for persons of a
particular religious belief must remain available for grave openings and
interments Sunday through Friday or other six-day period in accordance
with the religious and/or ethnic traditions of the persons interred in
said religious section. Nothing in this section shall require a cemetery
to provide grave openings and/or interments if they are otherwise unable
to do so as to direct consequence of severe weather conditions or other
similar conditions.
