Inc.; Notice of Application

August 21, 2007.
    Take notice that on August 7, 2007, as supplemented on August 20, 
2007, Western Gas Resources, Inc. (WGR), 1099 18th Street, Suite 1200, 
Denver, Colorado 80202 and Pioneer Natural Resources (USA), Inc. 
(Pioneer), 1400 Williams Square West, 5205 North O'Connor Boulevard, 
Irving, Texas, filed in Docket No. CP07-431-000, an application 
pursuant to section 7(b) of the Natural Gas Act (NGA) and Part 157 of 
the Commission's Regulations, for an order permitting and approving 
WGR's abandonment by conveyance to Atlas Pipeline Mid-Continent 
WestTex, LLC (WestTex) of WGR's interest in certain facilities referred 
to as the Midkiff Line located in Regan and Upton Counties, Texas, all 
as more fully set forth in the application which is on file with the 
Commission and open to public inspection.
    This filing is accessible online at http://www.ferc.gov, using the 

``eLibrary'' link and is available for review in the Commission's 
Public Reference Room in Washington, DC. There is an ``eSubscription'' 
link on the Web site that enables subscribers to receive e-mail 
notification when a document is added to a subscribed docket(s). For 
assistance with any FERC Online service, please e-mail 
FERCOnlineSupport@ferc.gov, or call (866) 208-3676 (toll free). For

    On June 22, 2007, the Commission issued a certificate to WGR and 
Pioneer, jointly, in Docket Nos. CP06-385-000 and -001, to operate and 
maintain the Midkiff Line. Pioneer is also a co-applicant with WestTex 
in a related application filed in Docket No. CP07-432-000 requesting a 
joint certificate to operate and maintain the Midkiff Line upon the 
abandonment of WGR's interest in the line by conveyance to WestTex.
    Any questions regarding this application should be directed to 
Sherri Manuel, Western Gas Resources, Inc., P.O. Box 1330, Houston, 
Texas 77251-1330, or phone (832) 636-1000.
    There are two ways to become involved in the Commission's review of 
this project. First, any person wishing to obtain legal status by 
becoming a party to the proceedings for this project should, on or 
before the comment date stated below, file with the Federal Energy 
Regulatory Commission, 888 First Street, NE., Washington, DC 20426, a 
motion to intervene in accordance with the requirements of the 
Commission's Rules of Practice and Procedure (18 CFR 385.214 or 
385.211) and the Regulations under the NGA (18 CFR 157.10). A person 
obtaining party status will be placed on the service list maintained by 
the Secretary of the Commission and will receive copies of all 
documents filed by the applicant and by all other parties. A party must 
submit 14 copies of filings made with the Commission and must mail a 
copy to the applicant and to every other party in the proceeding. Only 
parties to the proceeding can ask for court review of Commission orders 
in the proceeding.
    However, a person does not have to intervene in order to have 
comments considered. The second way to participate is by filing with 
the Secretary of the Commission, as soon as possible, an original and 
two copies of comments in support of or in opposition to this project. 
The Commission will consider these comments in determining the 
appropriate action to be taken, but the filing of a comment alone will 
not serve to make the filer a party to the proceeding. The Commission's 
rules require that persons filing comments in opposition to the project 
provide copies of their protests only to the party or parties directly 
involved in the protest.
    Comments, protests and interventions may be filed electronically 
via the Internet in lieu of paper. See 18 CFR 385.2001(a) (1) (iii) and 
the instructions on the Commission's Web site under the ``e-Filing'' 
link at http://www.ferc.gov. The Commission strongly encourages 

intervenors to file electronically. Persons unable to file 
electronically should submit an original and 14 copies of the protest 
or intervention to the Federal Energy Regulatory Commission, 888 First 
Street, NE., Washington, DC 20426.
    Comment Date: September 12, 2007.

Kimberly D. Bose,
Secretary.
