I had to deal with the LA lab once.  They at that 
time were not an NRTL, but in order to sell products 
of the UL-1950 category within LA county, one was 
required to have an NRTL or this LA Lab's approval. 
This was quite a while ago so things may be different 
now.  But, there's a situation whereby an NRTL is 
bypassed to the encouragement of the local authorities.
