MAXWELL, J., for the Court:

¶ 1. This is an appeal of the Mississippi State Oil & Gas Board's 2000 adoption of Statewide Rule 68, which governs the storage of radioactive waste generated during oil and gas production. The appellants are landowners, including Sherley Adams (collectively Landowners), who object to the rule. We do not address the merits of the Oil and Gas Board's decision. Instead, the question before this court is purely procedural.
