I know there are laws that vary state to state concerning scattering crematory ashes. Does anyone know if it would be legal to scatter ashes in the Boston Harbor?

If you have suffered a loss, I'm very sorry... however, you should be all set to legally scatter ashes in the Harbor.

"There is no restriction as to the disposition of ashes once cremation had occurred, however if the ashes are to be buried in a cemetery, a burial permit must be provided to the cemetery."

You would need to check with the city or county on this. Most of the time permits are required, if it is legal to do.

Maybe send an e-mail to the help website for the city and see. You maybe need a permit or something.
