הלכה על שקלים 8:6

Sefer HaChinukh

From the laws of the commandment is that which they, may their memory be blessed, said (Mishnah Shekalim 8:6) that if it became impure on the interior, we burn it on the interior; if it became impure on the exterior, we burn it on the exterior. And we burn it, whether it became impure from a main category of impurity or its immediate derivative. The owners burn notar of lower level [sacrifices] in their homes. And no bones of [sacrifices] that do not have marrow require burning, except for the bones of the Pesach sacrifice. And this matter strengthens a little our argument that we said about the spoiling of meat. And therefore the bones that do not come to spoiling do not require burning - except for the bones of the Pesach sacrifice: Since they are in the [negative commandment] of "and you shall not break a bone in it" (Exodus 12:46), there is usually a little meat upon them, because of the fear of breaking. And therefore they said in general about all of [their bones] that they require burning. And these are [the items] that are burned: Meat of [sacrifices] that have become impure or notar, or of a sacrifice that has become disqualified; also a meal-offering that has become impure, notar or disqualified; an undetermined guilt-offering about which it has become known (after) [before] its blood was sprinkled that the owner did not sin; a fowl sin-offering that came about a doubt; the hair of a pure nazirite; orlah (fruit of the first three years); and forbidden mixtures of the vineyard (so is it found in most hand-written manuscripts) - behold, these are burnt. And [while we are on this], we will write [the items] that are buried, and these are them: consecrated [animals] that died - whether consecrated for the altar or consecrated for the upkeep of the [Temple]; the fetus of consecrated [animals] that miscarried is to be buried, [and] if it passed a placenta, it is [also] buried; an ox that is stoned; a beheaded calf; the birds of a metsora; the hair of an impure nazirite; a firstborn donkey; meat with milk; and non-sacred animals slaughtered in the [Temple] yard. And the rest of the details of the commandment are elucidated in Pesachim and at the end of Temurah.
