discrimination on the basis of sex or to eliminate the effects of past 
discrimination whether occurring prior or subsequent to the submission 
to the Director of such assurance.
    (b) Duration of obligation. (1) In the case of Federal financial

or structures are used to provide an education program or activity.
    (2) In the case of Federal financial assistance extended to provide 
personal property, such assurance shall obligate the recipient for the

    (3) In all other cases such assurance shall obligate the recipient 
for the period during which Federal financial assistance is extended.
    (c) Form. The Director will specify the form of the assurances 
required by paragraph (a) of this section and the extent to which such 
assurances will be required of the applicant's or recipient's
