relative to natural organic reduction of human remains.

SB 53 would establish legal regulations for the composting of human remains as an alternative to burial or cremation. It directly affects funeral service providers and families choosing this method by setting standards for facilities, processes, and safety. The bill creates a new framework for "natural organic reduction" (human composting) under state oversight. Currently, the bill has been referred to an interim study committee for further review, with no active legislative action taken as of the latest update.
