It suo not appear from his petition that Mr. Tutner himacif eithez li;cc in the vicinity of the proposed Shorehau plant, concurcs food which oay contain radiocer toe inaterial from the proposed p14,nt, or pr6doces food in the vicinity of the plant which might be af fected by it.

Indeed the petition cc a whole indicates that lir. Turnec is not seeking to becote a party to this proccc?,ing to protect cny percon:t i.ntercut or interest of anyone cice when he represents, but rather to raine certain abstract icgal questions. In short, Mr. Turner has not choun or even alleged that some injury, in fact, may occur as a result of Cormlesion action either to hintcelf or to sot.c other percon or group o f persons he represents.  ;

1 We believe, therefore, that lir. Turner has not shown thnt he hno cny "interent [that] :nay be af fected by [thit;) proceeding."
