    (a) This subpart contains procedures and requirements for the 
accreditation of lead-based paint activities training programs, 
procedures and requirements for the certification of individuals and 
firms engaged in lead-based paint activities, and work practice 
standards for performing such activities. This subpart also requires 
that, except as discussed below, all lead-based paint activities, as 
defined in this subpart, be performed by certified individuals and 
firms.
    (b) This subpart applies to all individuals and firms who are 
engaged in lead-based paint activities as defined in Sec. 745.223, 
except persons who perform these activities within residential dwellings 
that they own, unless the residential dwelling is occupied by a person 
or persons other than the owner or the owner's immediate family while 
these activities are being performed, or a child residing in the 
building has been identified as having an elevated blood lead level. 
This subpart applies only in those States or Indian Country that do not 
have an authorized State or Tribal program pursuant to Sec. 745.324 of 
subpart Q.
    (c) Each department, agency, and instrumentality of the executive, 
legislative, and judicial branches of the Federal Government having 
jurisdiction over any property or facility, or engaged in any activity 
resulting, or which may result, in a lead-based paint hazard, and each 
officer, agent, or employee thereof shall be subject to, and comply 
with, all Federal, State, interstate, and local requirements, both 
substantive and procedural, including the requirements of this subpart 
regarding lead-based paint, lead-based paint activities, and lead-based 
paint hazards.
    (d) While this subpart establishes specific requirements for 
performing lead-based paint activities should they be undertaken, 
nothing in this subpart requires that the owner or occupant undertake 
any particular lead-based paint activity.
