How does the June 18, 2010 announcement impact renovators in states that have adopted their own RRP programs?

Answer: If you work in a state authorized by EPA to run their own renovation program, you should contact them for information on their certification requirements.  If you work in a state where EPA administers the renovation program your firm needs to be certified by EPA. Please refer to the “firm certification” tab on this page for a list of states authorized by EPA to run their own renovation programs --https://19january2021snapshot.epa.gov/lead/renovation-repair-and-painting-program-contractors
