In the case of a partial acquisition, the displacing agency shall make the determination whether the person is displaced.
The term "displaced person" does not include a person who has been determined, according to criteria established by the head of the agency, to be either in unlawful occupancy of the displacement dwelling or to have occupied such dwelling for the purpose of obtaining assistance under this title, nor, in any case in which the displacing agency acquired property for a program or project, any person (other than a person who was an occupant of such property at the time it was acquired) who occupies such property on a rental basis for a short term or a period subject to termination when the property is needed for the program or project.
(d) "Business" means any lawful activity, excepting a farm operation, conducted primarily:
