Not only are private and public cemeteries under regulated by the states. Religious cemeteries are unregulated by any state or federal rules. Arch Diocese is supposed to monitor all catholic cemeteries, as I learned in NY they only manage larger catholic cemeteries. Local parishes that are unequipped to run and manage a large cemetery are left to run cemetery example St. Raymonds cemetery in the Bronx. This cemetery staff placed the gravestone on the wrong burial plot and have refused to fix error. The staff submitted a fake receipt with the burial details of another Maria Cruz, which was not my mother in court. Regulation is needed and no one cares anything to do something about this matter. read http://stopcemeteryabuse.webs.com
