What the evidence supports
That Bureau of Land Management, the regulator, published the quoted statement. It records "permission issued" for BLM approval of the Fervo Cape Geothermal Power Project (up to 2 GW; about 631 acres, 148 on public land); a federal land decision, not every permit needed to build or operate under permissions only.
What remains unknown
One permission is not every permission the project needs. Any permission beyond the action quoted. A construction authorisation is not an operating licence, and one authority's action is not another's.
