Egdon Resources plc (AIM:EDR) announces the submission on 28 April 2017 of a new Planning Application (“the Application”) for the Wressle field development. The Application includes additional detailed information to address the specific concerns raised by North Lincolnshire Council in its 11 January 2017 decision to refuse planning consent for the development of the Wressle Oil Field at Lodge Farm, Wressle, North Lincolnshire. The Application will now be validated by North Lincolnshire Council planning department, a procedure that usually takes one to two weeks.

As previously announced on 11 April 2017, Egdon has already submitted an appeal against North Lincolnshire County Council’s decision to refuse planning consent.

Egdon believe that this dual track approach will provide the best opportunity for a successful planning outcome with the minimum delay.
