  • \We hold that petitioners have come to the wrong forum with an inappropriate claim in search of an unavailable remedy.\
  • court had no jurisdiction to hear challenges to regulations since petitioners were not parties to rulemaking proceedings
  • petitioner who refrained from participating in rule-making proceeding before Atomic Energy Commission lacks standing under 28 U.S.C. § 2344(4) to challenge resulting rule
  • “We hold that petitioners have come to the wrong forum with an inappropriate claim in search of an unavailable remedy.”
