the applicant that all portions and services of the entire facility for 
the construction or modernization of which, or in connection with which,

    (c) Attention is called to the requirement of title VI of the Civil

implementing such title VI, applicable to assistance under this part for 
construction and modernization of hospitals and medical facilities, has
