Scattering ashes at Chesapeake Bay prompts rules review
Scattering human ashes on Chesapeake Bay has grown popular with requests to Maryland Marine Police.

The Aquarian Society founder Simonson has already done trial ashes releases and offers viewings and yacht charters, with fees paid by members.
