    IN THE MATTER OF:
    )
    R89—13(A)
    IDENR SPECIAL WASTE
    )
    (Rulemaking)
    CATEGORIZATION
    DISSENTING OPINION
    (by J.D.
    Dumelle and M. Nardulli):
    In an earlier dissenting opinion in this same proceeding,
    we
    pointed out that the data base for determining the degree of
    hazard was not adopted under
    the requirements of the
    Administrative Procedure Act
    (i.e.
    Notice and comment) and is not
    set forth
    in the rule.
    (See Dissenting Opinion 89—13(A),
    November
    15,
    1989.)
    The details of our opinion need not be
    repeated
    in
    full, yet
    the main point remains
    that those
    industries subjected
    to regulation should be afforded all the
    information to which its regulators possess.
    The value of any rule is shortchanged when those affected by
    it are unable
    to analyze its applicability unto themselves.
    Because the data base in the instant proceeding is so
    discretionary as
    to its criteria,
    it contains the potential
    to
    violate due process.
    Accor
    i
    g
    we dissent.
