Title III of the Act, concerning uniform acquisition policy, also appears to lend some support to the HUD position. Section 301(5) directs all agencies to schedule construction projects in such a way that no *176person occupying real property is required to move “without at least ninety days’ written notice ... of the date by which such move is required.”41 This clearcut directive, which agencies must meet “to the greatest extent practicable,” ties in well with the “written notice” clause as an alternative definition. Once a person receives the written notice directed by section 301(5), he assuredly becomes a “displaced person” and can begin to take advantage of the Act’s benefits, including advisory services and rental replacement supplements, at least ninety days before actually having to vacate.
