The codified text (eCFR, as of 2026-10-02). Under the Revolutionary FAR Overhaul ↗, agencies follow class deviations with new text for many parts while the formal rules go through the Federal Register: check the solicitation and your contract's clauses, which rule.
In plain English
This clause says that when remains are buried as a group, the Government pays the Contractor based on how many caskets were furnished, not on how many persons are in the group. It matters to contractors because it fixes the payment basis for group interment work.
Applies to: Contractors providing supplies and services for group interment of remains
Key terms: Group interment · remains interred as a group · caskets furnished
