McIntyre wells 2-49, 2-50 and 2-56. After reviewing ARCO's applications and your protest, the commission perceives no harm to any interests on ADL leases 34622 nor 34623 from granting the spacing exceptions. The proposed targets for all of these wells exceeds the 500 foot standoff from the aforementioned leases as required by regulation and therefore correlative rights are protected. Therefore the ,commission hereby denies your request for hearings regarding ARCO's applications for spacing exceptions for Pt. McIntyre wells 2-49, 2-50 and 2-56. Should you have additional evidence to show actual harm, please contact the commission within 24 hours for reconsideration of this decision. Sincerely, David W.
