EPA "lead paint certified" electricians, drywall, plumbers?

I was wondering, since this new EPA lead paint law has gone into effect, have people had luck using/finding tradespeople who have this certification for work on pre-1978 houses?

I am thinking of making an offer on a house that has a Federal Pacific panel (which would need to be replaced). I'm not sure if I need to use a "lead safe certified" electrician to do this, since part of the drywall will have to be cut out to remove the old panel, or whether I can use the electrician I normally use.
