The headline figures (median, minimum, maximum, quartiles) are over ONE figure per source in USD (a source's median where its page yielded several accepted sentences), so N counts sources, never sentences; 7 candidate sentence(s) were refused by a reviewer with the reason recorded. Derivation as chartered: One row per state per licence class, read from the regulator's own page: whether the state licenses mould work at all, the statute and rule that creates it, the licence classes, the square-foot threshold at which the licence bites, the insurance floor, the training hours, the conflict-of-interest bar on one firm doing both assessment and remediation, and the URL of the state's own licensee search; Texas splits assessment consultant, assessment technician, remediation contractor and remediation worker, Florida splits assessor and remediator at a 10 square-foot trigger, and New York splits assessment, remediation and abatement. The figure nobody publishes is the MAP: how many states license mould at all, how many licensees each holds, and what the same job legally requires on either side of a state line - Texas requires a licence and reports 5,646 licensees, Maryland passed an Act in 2008 and terminated it in 2019, and Virginia in 2024 chose to require an IICRC certification through consumer-protection law instead of a licence. Joined to the firm index it also yields the share of firms advertising in a licensing state that appear on that state's register.", "embed": "
