ON PETITION FOR REHEARING
In their petition for rehearing, plaintiffs argue that the court’s determination that they lack standing here to assert claims under the Water Quality Control Act and the Radiation Control Act overlooked their standing as persons adversely affected or aggrieved by agency action under the Colorado Administrative Procedure Act (APA), § 24-4-101 et seq., C.R.S. 1973.
We need not decide whether the APA opens the door as widely as advocated by plaintiffs. Here, the plaintiffs did not seek judicial review under the APA, since the action was not commenced until November 15, 1979, and not within the 30 day mandatory time period therefor. Section 24-4-106(4), C.R.S. 1973 (1980 Cum. Supp.).
We adhere to our original position that plaintiffs lack standing to bring this action, and that the dismissal as to them was proper.
The petition for rehearing is denied.
