Notes: • Only locations with additional state requirements for information on identification bands will be allowed to use toe tags in place of white identification bands. Use of toe tags must be approved by the Operations Support Department and must be attached accordingly with a cable lock strap. Creation and use of colored or duplicate bands/tags are prohibited for use of identification or any other purpose unless currently stated in policy and procedure (i.e. an identification band or an identification label attached to the outside of an urn). In cremation cases, the white identification band will be cremated with the decedent as the metal identification disk becomes the primary identification tag (see Metal Identification Disk, Cremation Manual). For burials and entombments, the white identification band will remain on the decedent to help facilitate identification in the event of a later disinterment, disaster (i.e. flood, earthquake, etc.) or other need for positive identification.
