What the evidence supports

That Oklo (SEC Form 10-Q, Q2 2026), the project's developer, published the quoted statement. It records "permission issued" for DOE approval of the Nuclear Safety Design Agreement (a DOE design-stage safety step; not authorization to 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.
