You mean the RIAA that certifies albums for good sales?
I don't think it is. As far as I know, it is a private business and record labels have to pay the RIAA if they want their artists to receive a platinum certification.
"The Recording Industry Association of America (or RIAA) is a trade group that represents the recording industry in the United States. Its members consist of a large number of PRIVATE corporate entities such as record labels and distributors, who create and distribute about 90% of recorded music sold in the US. It is involved in a series of controversial copyright-infringement legal actions on behalf of its members".
