Kentucky Lead-Safe Firm Certification

Contractors across Kentucky who work on pre-1978 properties need EPA Lead-Safe firm certification. Kentucky is one of the states where the EPA administers the RRP program directly, so your Kentucky firm certifies federally through the EPA rather than a state agency.

We prepare and submit your Kentucky application in EPA’s CDX for you, $429 total, valid five years. You provide your firm details (no Social Security number required); we submit through the EPA and track it to issuance.
