NOW, THEREFORE, IT IS ORDERED that Order Nos. 65-1, 65-2, 65-3, and 65-4 in Cause No. 65 are hereby vacated, and operations in the area known as the Atwood-East Field shall hereafter be governed by Order No. 65-8 for the area that is unitized and by the general rules and regulations of this Commission for the area outside the unit boundaries.
