No, it does not require certified interpreters if there are aids or other services that will accommodate the hearing impaired in specific situations..

If certified interpreters are the only service that will accommodate the hearing impaired in specific situations, then they have to be provided. But if the provider (ie the LLC in this case) does not like having to pay for them, then they would have to prove an undue financial hardship and/or prove that there are more economical ways that will accommodate just as well..
