On a Samsung Galaxy S5 running Lollipop (5.01?) it's under Wifi -> Advanced -> Always Allow Scanning.

With this turned off and GPS turned on (ie, not using Wifi to determine locations) I get a terrible reduction in battery life because all locations are done finely with the GPS chip. With all location services disabled I get much better battery life.
