Sec.  51.302  Coverage.



    (a) These policies apply to HUD programs which provide assistance, 

subsidy or insurance for construction, land development, community 

development or redevelopment or any other provision of facilities and 

services which are designed to make land available for construction. 

When the HUD assistance, subsidy or insurance is used to make land 

available for construction rather than for the actual construction, the 

provision of the HUD assistance, subsidy or insurance shall be dependent 

upon whether the facility to be built is itself acceptable in accordance 

with the standards in Sec.  51.303.

    (b) These policies apply not only to new construction but also to 

substantial or major modernization and rehabilitation and to any other 

program which significantly prolongs the physical or economic life of 

existing facilities or which, in the case of Accident Potential Zones:

    (1) Changes the use of the facility so that it becomes one which is 

no longer acceptable in accordance with the standards contained in Sec.  

51.303(b);

    (2) Significantly increases the density or number of people at the 

site; or

    (3) Introduces explosive, flammable or toxic materials to the area.

    (c) Except as noted in Sec.  51.303(a)(3), these policies do not 

apply to HUD programs where the action only involves the purchase, sale 

or rental of an existing property without significantly prolonging the 

physical or economic life of the property.

    (d) The policies do not apply to research or demonstration projects 

which do not result in new construction or reconstruction, to interstate 

land sales registration, or to any action or emergency assistance which 

is provided to save lives, protect property, protect public health and 

safety, or remove debris and wreckage.
