# §3273.11. When is a site license unnecessary?


You do not need a site license if your facility will be located:

- (a) On private land or on split estate land where the United States does not own the surface; or
- (b) **On Federal land not leased for geothermal resources.** In this situation, the Federal surface management agency will issue you the permit you need.
