(d)HUD's or the recipient's actions under any HUD program involving the repair, rehabilitation, modernization, weatherization, or improvement of existing nonresidential buildings and structures, in communities that are in the Regular Program of the NFIP and are in good standing (i.e., not suspended from program eligibility or placed on probation under 44 CFR 59.24), provided that the action does not meet the thresholds for "substantial improvement" under § 55.2(b)(12) and the footprint of the structure and paved areas is not increased by more than 20 percent.
(e)HUD's or the recipient's actions under any HUD program involving the repair, rehabilitation, or replacement of existing nonstructural improvements including streets, curbs, and gutters, where any increase of the total impervious surface area of the facility is de minimis.
