### sec.441 Construction and operation of petroleum facility
The holder of a petroleum facility licence may, on the petroleum facility land for the licence, construct or operate the petroleum facility.
However, if native title exists in relation to the petroleum facility land, the holder must have or hold an interest or permission mentioned in section 439 (1) (b) for the native title rights and interests.
To remove any doubt, it is declared that the mere grant of the licence does not, of itself, authorise the construction or operation of the petroleum facility on other land in the area of the licence.
