In November 2005, the East Bay Regional Park District Board of Directors approved a policy to allow the scattering of cremated remains in the Regional Parks. The guidelines are intended to ensure that the scattering complies with all State of California Health and Safety codes. Please review the EBRPD Cremated Remains Policy below.
To obtain a permit:
- Complete the application, which should include a map and documentation from the mortuary or crematorium. Return the completed application to reservations@ebparks.org.
- The application will be sent to the Park Supervisor to review and approve.
- Once the application has been approved, the Reservations Department will contact you to collect payment for the $50 permit fee. Payment can be made with a Visa/Mastercard. Check payments are also accepted but must be received at least 15 days before permitted date.
