Lead licensing in Indiana
Indiana licenses lead professionals through the State Department of Health's Lead and Healthy Homes Division, under the state's lead abatement rule. That covers lead abatement and inspection work in older housing. Ordinary renovation, repair and painting that disturbs old paint falls under EPA's federal Lead-Safe program instead. The department's licensing page points to a way to find Indiana lead professionals, and EPA has a locator for renovation firms. Check the agencies' sites for current requirements.
