The legislative history of the DCAPA indicates that, although there are slight differences in language between the federal APA's standing provision (5 U.S.C. § 702) and its D.C. counterpart, the two provisions were intended to be interpreted virtually identically. See Basiliko v. District of Columbia, D.C.App., 283 A.2d 816, 818 (1971), citing S.Rep.No.1581, 90th Cong., 2d Sess. 12 (1968) and H.R.Rep.No.202, 90th Cong., 1st Sess. 6 (1967). Thus, as we noted in Basiliko, supra, it is appropriate for us to seek guidance from federal court interpretations of the APA's standing requirements.
