KRU 2N-343 May 5, 1998 IT APPEARING THAT: 1. ARCO Alaska, Inc. submitted an application dated April 14, 1998 requesting exception to the well spacing provisions of 20 AAC 25.055(a)(3) to allow drilling the ARCO KRU 2N- 343 development oil well to a producing location that is closer than 500 feet from aquarter- section line. 2. The Commission published notice of opportunity for public hearing in the Anchorage Daily News on April 19, 1998 pursuant to 20 AAC 25.540. 3. No protests to the application were received. FINDINGS: The KRU 2N-343 development oil well will be drilled as a deviated hole with a surface location 13T from the north line (FNL) and 1084' from the east line (FEL) of Section 3, T9N, R7E, Umiat Meridian (UM) to a producing location 1,444' FNL and 2,683' FEL of Section 4, T9N, R7W, UM. 2.
