Is this a government requirement to remove lead-based paint from houses and day-care centers?

No. EPA's training and certification program does not require the removal, inspection or assessment of lead-based paint in homes, day-care centers, or other structures. Rather, through this rule, the EPA is establishing this training certification and accreditation program so that individuals or families that are concerned about selecting a professional for lead- based paint services can be confident that the contractors have the proper training to perform the work safely, reliably and effectively.
